The Odyssey Is The Story Of Someone

When Ulysses Hears His Own Story Sung By An Epic Poet And Then He Reveals His Identity And The Poet Wants To Continue Singing, Ulysses Isn't Interested Any Longer. That's Very Astonishing.

The Poet Is Never Inspired, Because He Is The Master Of That Which Appears To Others As Inspiration. He Does Not Wait For Inspiration To Fall Out Of The Heavens Like Roasted Ortolans. He Knows How To Hunt...he Is Never Inspired Because He Is Unceasingly Inspired, Because The Powers Of Poetry Are Always At His Disposition, Subjected To His Will, Submissive To His Own Activity.

Being Or Nothing, That Is The Question. Ascending, Descending, Coming, Going, A Man Does So Much That In The End He Disappears.

The Odyssey Is The Story Of Someone Who, In The Course Of Diverse Experiences, Acquires A Personality Or Affirms And Recovers His Personality.

Many Novelists Take Well-defined, Precise Characters, Whose Stories Are Sometimes Of Mediocre Interest, And Place Them In An Important Historical Context, Which Remains Secondary In Spite Of Everything.
