The poem 'Odyssey', created by the genius of the legendary epic poet of Ancient Greece Homer, is one of the greatest works of world literature, a creation full of full-blooded life, bright fantasy and poetic brilliance. The dangerous adventures of the cunning and long-suffering Odyssey (he, passionately striving to go home to Ithaca, will have to fight with Poseidon, visit the country of cruel cannibals and the island of the sorceress Kirkah, and then go to the threshold of the kingdom of the dead), the tender feelings of heroes and passions raging on the pages of the poem, legend and mystery that flickered the past, finally, the very language with which Homer's poem was written, unusually figurative and vibrant - all this again and again attracts the attention of new readers, inspires poets and artists nicknames.
