Odysseus: A Hero in Trouble<br />

When called <strong>to</strong> serve in <strong>the</strong> Trojan War, Odysseus<br />

• pretended <strong>to</strong> be insane so<br />

he wouldn’t have <strong>to</strong> go (he<br />

dressed as a peasant,<br />

plowed his field, and<br />

sowed it with salt)<br />

• revealed his sanity <strong>to</strong><br />

save his son’s life (who<br />

was placed in front of <strong>the</strong><br />

plow)<br />
