Modern Takes on Ulises and Penélope from the Greek Odyssey

One article, published by the satirical outlet El Deforma, features a parody interview in which a self‑styled expert named Ulises claims the hero of Homer's *Odyssey* is not historically accurate, noting absurd details such as missing collars and fights with modern figures, and stressing the piece is meant for entertainment.

Another article provides a literary analysis of the *Odyssey*, describing Ulises (Odysseus) and Penélope as archetypal figures, summarising the hero’s ten‑year return from Troy, his conflicts with the gods, the concept of *areté* (heroic virtue), and key episodes such as the encounter with the cyclops Polyphemus and the challenges faced by Penélope and their son Telémaco.
