Blog Post #2

Select one passage (no more than 15 lines) from any Book of The Odyssey in which repetition is used. Then, using your close reading skills, make an individual, complex, or unusual claim about the significance of repetition. You may want to close read a passage in which Telemachus repeats Athena's words verbatim, or perhaps there is something interesting to say about recurring words/images (i.e., weaving webs, birds, etc). To expand on the ideas discussed in 102, you may want to take a closer look at one of the multiple stories that are repeated (with a difference).
