Line 5: − ==Inspirations of Modern Works of Art== − Odysseus, under his [[Latin]] name Ulysses, has at various times served as the inspiration for other works of art, including a poem by [[Alfred Lord Tennyson]]<ref>See main article, [[Ulysses (Tennyson)]].</ref> (made famous for its ending line, in perfect [[iambic pentameter]] - "To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield"), and a novel by [[James Joyce]] (received initially as literary [[pornography]]).
Moving Inspirations to Odyssey - this page is about the character.
In the Odyssey, a companion to the [[Iliad]], Ulysses attempts to return to his [[island]] kingdom of [[Ithaca]], where his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus have stayed waiting for him. Unfortunately, Ulysses has incurred the wrath of the God of the Sea, [[Neptune]], and his ship is buffeted on the seas into various confrontations with [[myth|mythical]] monsters.
