Antiquity to Modernity: A Cross-Generational Examination of Retribution in The Odyssey and Contemporary Society

Justice and Retribution in The Odyssey: Comparing Ancient Greek Concepts with Modern Views. Explore the theme of justice and retribution in The Odyssey and compare it to modern perspectives on crime and punishment. Analyze how characters like Odysseus, Penelope, and the suitors are dealt with by the gods and society. Consider how concepts of divine intervention, honor, and revenge shape notions of justice in ancient Greek literature and how these compare to modern ideas of criminal justice and morality using a text like Hurston’s “Sweat” or Kafka’s “The Metamorphosis.” Broaden your comparison with a third text or film that reinforces the claims you make in your comparison of the two-course texts. Make sure to substantiate your claims with researched, cited facts.
