About

Readers of Homer know that Odysseus spins tall tales, but it’s not always clear when he is lying and when he is telling the truth. Join us for a discussion led by a scholar of the Ancient Mediterranean World, to explore the role of truth and deception in The Odyssey. Together we’ll ask: Can we believe Odysseus?
