The Odyssey the journey home from Troy
This story of Odysseus has been retold for modern audiences. It looks beneath the surface of the myth to unveil some surprisingly modern themes. Odysseus is torn between glory at work and happiness at home. The Odyssey poses a question that resonates to this day: what is the meaning of life? After ten years fighting in the Trojan War, Odysseus, King of Ithaca, sets sail for home. His journey, however, is full of temptation. Odysseus has to decide what is most important to him: home and family, or immortality.

- "Contemporary Western society revolves around celebrity--and ancient Greek culture was no different, as this program demonstrates with perceptive comparisons of the two worlds. Scholarly analysis and splendid re-enactments bring new life to Homer's epic, giving it both a historical and personal context. For long-ago Greek listeners enraptured with famous warriors and athletes, Homer fashioned a subtle moral dilemma: can one pursue fortune and recognition without endangering a far more valuable treasure--namely, the love and stability of family? Clearly, The Odyssey still engenders sociologically relevant discussion."
