The Boyhood and Parents of Ulysses begins in Ithaca, a rugged island where steep hills met the sea, and simplicity thrived over grandeur. This mountainous kingdom, ruled by Laertes, lacked the wide plains that enabled chariot warfare, leaving its warriors to fight on foot. Despite the absence of horses, the land was abundant with goats, sheep, and deer, while its surrounding waters provided rich catches of fish. Summers were long and golden, winters short and gentle. Wildflowers carpeted the slopes, and…
