Samuel Rivas ENG 2 FINAL EXAM
The nost credible momment that I thought was when Poe was bitten or scratched by an animal and thrown out to the street. Some more information aboutPoe was that he was found on the street next to a bar supposably drunk by other people but waht they didn't know was that Poe was bitten by an animal.
People who found Poe thought that he was crazy because the clothes he had weren't his clothes they were someone eles clothes the clothes he had were crinkled and thorn and the hat he had was goofy and stupid.They called the ambulance to come pick him up and take him to the hospital.
Neilson who hated Poe went and visit him at the hospital. Poe stayed at the hospital fo four days when he died on October 7th 1849. Poe died of rabies but the doctors thought he died of inflamation to the brain, people thought he died of alcohol poisoning.

Wilmer Merlos English 2 final exam
The most cridible moment that I thought was when poe was bitten or scratched by an animal and thrown to the street. He was found by a bar, supposably drunk. But they didn't know that he was bitten by an animal.
The people that found poe thought he was crazy because of the clothes he was wearing, his clothes was wrinkly and messed up. So they took him to the hospital. Neilson, who hated poe went to go visit him at the hospital. Poe stayed at the hospital for 4 days until he died. The date when he died was on october 7th, 1849. Poe died of rabies because of the animal that bit him. But the doctors thought he died because of alcohol poisoning. Some other people thought he died because of inflammation to the brain.
Some more information about poe is that he couldn't drink or else he would get sick for days. He was gone for a long time and he wasn't wearing his own clothes, he was wearing sombody else's.

Ivan Hernandez ENG2-FINAL EXAM
The most credible thing on how Poe died is when the doctors find out he actually has rabies. Nielson paid the doctors to lie and say he died form brain inflammation. Also another credible is when I thought Poe had been bitten by a dog or and animal and got rabies. These are some credible stuff and information about Poe.
Some more information about how Poe came to his death. Somehting about him is he married his cousin her name is Virginia. When he was found by the bar people thought he was crazy so they took him to the hospital. He was wearing somebody elses ragedy clothes. Nielson went to go visit him and paid the doctors to lie about his death.
The real story about Poes death is he died from rabies and not from inflammation to the brain. He dies on October 7, 1849 in a impossing hospital on October 3 he was yelling out his wifes name and yelling different names. Then four days later he died. Thats the story about Poe's death.

Joel Martinez ENG 2 Final Exam
The source I deem most plausible would have to be the "Rabies death theory." I think its the most true because he had a cat that could of had rabies. also there no rabie vaccines for animals back then. so nobody would know if the cat had it.
Some other interesting stuff is that Poe could never drink.
Or he would get really sick for days. He was gone for a long time. He was missing his suitcase. He was missing his cloths and wearing sombody elses.
When found at the bar people thought he was crazy. He was sent to the hospital. Neilson went to visit him. I thought that was suspicious. Doctors say he died of brain inflammation. But I think they got paid by Neilson.

Tanya Guerrero ENG. 8 Final Exam
Edgar Allen Poe was a author quite known all over the world. He would write stories poems etc. But then something sad happened. It was brought to everyones attention that he had passed away.
It all started when he stopped showing up to work for a week. he wasnt feeling good with headaches and having a fever. He was ill for a couple of days not really caring that he didnt feel good. Poe was really sick to the point that he decided to go to the hospital. Where he stayed their for four days. Later on he passed away. They most likely diagnosed him to see what was wrong with him. After that they came with a conclusion that he had died because he had gotten drunk.
Then they started a new theory that he had died of rabbies. So they kept on wondering and thinking what could of caused him to get rabbies. Doctors said that with rabbies would would feel symtoms, itching.

Carmen Patino eng 2nd Final exam
What caused Poe's death was Rabies. Also being exposed to alot of bad weather.
Such as hard winds/rain. He was also around animals.
The symtoms that he showed were perspiring heaviy.he was also delirious. Poe was shouting at imagiary companions. One morning he was find the next he was angry. and he did not remeber falling.
The proof supporting rabies is he was exposed to alot or bad weather. He had been spoted at a bar but was not drunk. He did mot wanna drink water because rabie victims frequently fear water since it's pianful to swallow.
Why rabies and not alcoho? Well because the proof supporting rabies is better. an animal could hav bit hin and him not relized it.

Nick Key -- Eng2(8) - FINAL EXAM
From the sources of "Poes Final Days", I believe that Poe died from alcoholism. The reasons I believe this is because when he was unconscious outside of the bar, he was too drunk to care about the cold wind and the rain. Poe also died of alcohol because he was always hallucinating in the hospital, seeing things that didnt exist on the walls. He also was calling some random persons name loudly.
He was moving his head quietly while saying "Lord help my poor soul", and then he died. All of his relatives would say that even a glass of wine would knock him off of his feet, but a fault of this theory is that everyone also said that he almost never touch a drop of alcohol.
The doctors thought he might of died from rabies but I do not think that is true because they never found any bite marks or animal scratches on his skin. He might have died from rabies because they found him positive for having a certain kind of rabies that affects the brain and making it swell.
He could have died from rabies, or alcohol poisoning. He also might have not died from either, but from the information I got I still believe he had died from alcoholism.

Anthony Dulaney English 2 final exam
From the source "Poe's final days" it says on his way back to Baltimore, Poe was seen dressed strange and semi conscious. Poe was driven to a hospital into Private room . When he arrived it said he was stupor. Poe dozed off and woke up violently. Poe kept yelling out someones name. He died later to lethal amount of alcohol.
This story has more detail and back up support than the rabies account. it give places, more names and the state of being. It tells the doctors and university names with Poe's actions.
From both accounts I don't remember it saying about Mr.Poe getting bit by an animal. Ive seen many drunk cases. this seems like one.
This story of Poe's death is like religion. No one can agree with one thing. To me this should have been a one account story that everyone agrees with. The alcohol account makes more sense. i wonder if anything from the doctor and the nurses had been written down in a file.

James Giles-eng 2(8) - Final Exam
The story i feel that is most plausible is "Poe's Death is Rewritten as Case of Rabies not telltale Alcohol". The reason is because it has alot of very logical theorys for instance is said that in his later years that he got very sick from a very small amount of alcohol and he very avoided is as much as possible. In this article is said he could of died of rabies because he had almost all of the syptoms like not being able to remember what animal bit him.
Edgar Poe was in the hostpital and he had been very sick. The following day had no reculection that he was even ill Which is a nother syptom of rabies. But then on the fourth day of being in the hopital he died. Most people think of him dieing in the gutter drunk which is false because of the reasoning i explained earlier on. Edgar Poe Dr. Henry Wilde stated "Edgar Poe had all the symptoms of encephalitic rabies" Which is a docter who treats rabies in the Chulalongkorn University Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand.
In my opinion this is the most well explained because of the backup in the reasons of his rabies. I feel that the theory of him dieing in the gutter to be at the most and legend that is false.

Adriana Ruvalcaba final exam
I beleive that Edgar Allan Poe died from rabies and this is my story of what happend and why!!!
Poe lived in Richmond, Baltimore. He spent time written and creating books. But all of a sudden every thing in his life was starting to become really weird. He lasted about one week that no one new about him. Then one day a guy named Joseph Walker saw him and he says that he looked very funny and ackwerd. He saw him strangly dressed and weird looking. Who nows it could of been that he was just drunk or that he was attacked from the rabies already and was fealling the symtoms.
Poe was in the hospital for about four days and like always acting really weird. No one really new was going on with his life though. Some peolple thought that he was drunk and maybe that was his hangovers but no one really nows.
The other thought was that his cat named Catrina had rabies and maybe Poe did get them from the cat. He was felling most symtoms and all features of encephatic rabies. Who nows it could of been the fact that he was raelly drunk of the teeltale alcohol.
Poe did die in the hospital. Poe never really paid attention to his illness and his pain plus symtoms. They say that when you fell yhe symtoms are swift and brutal killers. So far most of the patients they have had die in a fw days.
Poeple have done researches and it said taht there has been about 33 reported casses of human rabies. Only 24% could recall an apporiate history of rabies. There has been 15 casses scince 1980. So you should always be careful!!!!

Breana Lindig eng2(8)-Final Exam
I chose the rabies theory because there was alot of reasearch done to prove this. This shows that the the doctor who did this actually took the time to do reasearch. This also shows that he was scientifically accurate. The other doctor just said he died form alchol because he was in or by the bar when found.
The proof of this theory is shown inboth articles. This shows thatif they see the symptoms in both must be accurate but it is not signs of alchol poisining. This also shows thatif DR. R. Benitez was correct all of his reasearch shows rabies. the only thing his reasearch needed was proof of a scratch or bits.
All of the symptoms match rabies, and poe went through all of them in order. This shows that it could have possibly been rabies. This also shows that if the doctor didn't know all of the symptoms then he just made a educated guess on what he saw. If poe was drunk then he drunk him self into a unconsciouse state of mind.
There are reasons i didn't chose the alchol theory. One of them was because the doctor that was there when Poe died was a temporance advocate. That means he was against alchol so he would have thought it was alchol because he was against it. But in other words this could have been one of the reasons he turned to being a temporance advocate.

Melissa Sandoval-eng 2nd-final exam
I think that Edgar Allen Poe died of rabies, not of drinking to much alcohol. Poe didn't like to drink because he knew that alcohol made him very sick. They probably thought that he was drunk because of the way he was acting and the way he looked when they found him.
They thought it was alchohol that killed him becase what he looked like, and the symtoms he had. They came up with the theory that he had gotten so drunk to the point where he couldn't protect himself from the rain and wind. So he got sick and died from brain inflammation.
I think that he died from rabies even though there were no animal bites on him and no evidence of being bit by one. It was not easy to get diagnosed with rabies because sometime it would take a year to show or feel the symtoms and when they does show up some of the people died within a couple of days.
Poe could of gotten bitten along time ago and by the time they found him the wounds had already healed thats why they couldn't find the bites. The symtoms could have barley started showing when they found him, and then a couple days later he died. He could of gotten bit by his cat becase they had no animal vaccine for rabies yet.
There was more evidence th the rabies theory then there was to the alcohol theory. so I think that he died of rabies, but we may never know.

how can u aske urself how did edgar allen poe die? well ive read some stories tellin wat where the cases and the only one i truely belive waz edgar allen poe if only poe had succeeded when he said nevermore to drink. In 2 ways edagar allen poe died and 1 of them where alcholism and the othere waz rabies. Think how do u think u die 4 days after rabies or alcholism? well i think that Edgar allen poe died of alcholism 4 days after because he would of had Rabies he would of had died to days later?
Scients say tht there could of been rabies shoot for him if he would of had the rabies and u would of seen him him or people would of seen him wit white stuff on his mouth. That how you can tell if people or animals have rabies. He could of also had alcholism posing and he would of died that long cuz the alchol can screw up ur lever and make u throw up like if u where sick or something. Alchol might of been the problem because it tkes about 3-4 days so that alchoc can get out of ur body even more then that u kno. Edgar Aleen Poe waz a person tht could of secceded but no one onws wat happened to him . people can find the way hoe he died . but in my case he porbility died of alcholism cuz yea. why am i sayin that he died of alcholism and stickin 2 it? will lyk i said a be4 it takes about that time so that the alchol can go throw ur whole body

Lesieli Panuve English 2-FINAL EXAM
The last time where poe was last seen by a guy named Joseph Walker in the Bsltimore Tavern. While poe was sitting in the bar evrebody was looking at him with disgust because he dressed strange not clen suited. Walker said that was the last time he seen poe alive. That was the last place he was found also laying outfront of the bar in Baltimore.
Later a researcher Dr. Benitez said that poe did not die of drunkness he died from rabies practicing poes death. When he was found at that bar on Lombard Street.He was not drunk. Evidence that he wasnt is because when he entered the hospital they gave him alcohol but he refused. So when they gave him water he drank it with difficulty.
While poe was in the hospital he aws hallucinating and was ill. But the next day he died quietly. which Dr. Benitez said it was the case of rabies. People said their was no evidence of rabies.

How did Poe died?
The facts that are written in this story doesn't really describe the death of Edgar Allan Poe.Research says that Allan Poe died from the cause of drunkenness but that's not the only theory that they have, they also say thathe may haved died from rabies. My opinion form both of these theorys is that he died form excecive drinkin disorder. Poe was in the hospital for 4 days being diagnosed with rabies. Scientist had an answer they said that Edgar Allan Poe got rabies from his cat Caterona. I don't really agree with the scientist answer because since they siad that he liked to drink a lot of alcohol like very very much maybie the too much alcohol made him die.
Since he was in the hospital for 4 days they would have know the symptoms for rabies.
In both articles it show an answer for each theory but there not quite sure what the cause of his death may have been. If I was in that situation I would defenetally say excesive dinkin because for excesive drinkin there's not really a cure but for rabies there may have been back then. Also from his drinkin he had gained illness and weakness so maybie from the drinking and the rabies he may, may had died from both causes.

Jesus A. Aragon Eng2(8) Final exam
With all the evidince i read I' ve choosed the Rabies Death theory Becuase, well just think about it if Edgar Poe died from liquer he wouldnt of have fever. The liver would get all mest up. HE would probility start throwing up blood. These are some of the symptoms that liquer posion may cause. Yeah there is alot of facts that suppport the theory of Poe drinking, but I am going to stick with my theory. The letter say it could take more than a year for symptoms to show so thats one the reasons i belive rabies kille pore Mr. Edgar Poe.
No one realy nows what did kill him. In the past 20 years in the united states there has been 33 reported cases of humans rabies. Imagen how many didn't report. Only 24 percent of them which is like 6 or 7 people can rememeber being close to an animal. Poe had a female cat, she died from rabies.
There is chance that Poe got rabies from his own cat. Like i sayed before it could take more than a year for symptoms to show. It didnt say anything bout when the cat died so it realy can't fully support the theory about Rabies. Mr. Poe was a nice pretty dress guy wich ment he had money. But when they found him he was dress very poor which mean someone had to rob him. There is alot on versions of the of the story. Only god nows the real story. But i dont think liquer is a fact in this story.

From the source "Poe's Final Days", it says that on his way back to Baltimore, Poe was seen
dressed strange and was semiconscious. The source says that there's no official evidence of why
of his acting. One week after that trip, Joesph Walker saw Poe in a tavern at Gunner's Hall. It was Election day
when he found Poe. He said that Poe was over drinking and was supposevly ill from exposure
outside.
Poe told Walker about Joseph Evans Snodgrass, who was an editor and a physician who he
went to while he was in Philidalphia. Walker realized he worked as an typesetter in Snodgrasses
Saturday Visitor. Walker sent a note to Snodgrass that Poe needed immediate assistance. When
Snodgrass went to Gunner's Hall, he saw Poe sitting in a armchair with a look of "vacant
stupidity". One of Poe's relatives, Henry Herring, his uncle-in-law, arrived. And on his arrival, he
noticed about Poe's condition. He's a lumber, who married Poe's aunt's sister, spent time with
Poe during his time in Baltimore.
The families realize that Poe was in a insensible state, which suggested the family to send him to
a hospital. In an imposing building, Dr. John J. Moran, a residential physician was the one who
attended to Poe. He had a medical degree from the University of Maryland and he was
only twenty-six. He noticed Poe's identity,"a great man". Himself and a few other medical
students all considered Poe to be " an object of unusual regard".
Poe on Oct. 6, he was delirious, he was resisting from two nurses to stay in his bed.
From moran's explanation, Poe raved all day, and then he was calling out someone. Moran didn't
quite get what he said, he guessed he was calling out Reynolds, a Baltimore family, or his uncle in
law, Henry. Poe continued to call out until 3 on Sunday morning. Then his condition changed.
There isn't an exact report of where Poe died, Moran reported Poe has Expired. Reports say that
he was exposed too much. Another report says that he was bitten by a rat and was considared to
have rabbies. But it is to be said that Poe was too drunk to care about himself and was exposed
to raind and wind and didn't care.

Jessica Finau -- English 2 - Final Exam
Out of reading all of the following argument articles, the article that seems most plausible will be the one of Dr. Benitez. In the passage it says the Edgar Poe did not die of alcohol, but a case of the rabies. It also has alot of information to back it up, saying that he refuses to drink alcohol, because even with water he has a difficult time drinking it! So if Joseph Walker says alcohol was the cauze of it, how can it be if drinking any type of liquid is painful enough for him?
It also makes sense that rabies was the cauze of his death, because at the time Poe did have a pet by the name Caterina. It could have been possible that the cat was a carrier of it, and may have transmitted the disease to Poe, either from some sort of contact of the body of the cat and the human flesh. Not knowing his pet was infected, Poe would have probably done something way earlier to prevent himself from getting rabies. But because there was no cure at the time there was nothing he could have done. If he did know, I know for a fact that he would have got rid of the cat long time ago.
Not only do I support this article, but I also highly agree with it! In the passage it talks about how they found his body outside a bar, wearing someone else's clothes and was pale faced. To me it seems as if Poe planned his death the way he did, because like it said before he was so sensitive to any type of liquid, how can he die of alcohol poisioning? So he made his death seem as if he died of alcohol, but really it was rabies. That is why he weared unfamiliar clothes, and was so pale from the disease getting worser that it eventually killed his limbs, and soon killed him. It is a mystery to most people of his death that even I want to know the truth!

With the evidence that they have with the case of Edgar Allen Poe. It is most likely that one has more information then the other. One of them is Dr. R. Michael Benitez, he said that he was not wearing hes close but somebody elses. Also that he died by drinking but that they found out that was not ture.
While he was in the hospital that he grew confuesed and belligerent. but on the fourth day he was there in the hospital that he grew quiet and had passed away. They also got evidence that he wasn't an alcoholic because he refused to dirnk instead he would drink water cause if he would drink it would hurt hes throat. It also was pain to swallow. He also said that he was consumed with rabies, but had no sign of him being bitten or scratched by an animal. They aslo did not take as many CT or MRT'S scans.
The data that was published by the Center Of Diease Control. That before his death of his filine cat, carina had deid 2 months before Poe had passed away. There was no avaible vaccine for the pets that haved the disesae at the time. So there was no way that the animal was able to survive if it had rabises.

Kyle Judd English 2 Final Exam
I believe that alchohol poisoning fits the circumstances of Poe's death better than the theory that he died of rabies. Poe was, in fact, notorious for being raging alchoholic and not "So Sensitive to alchohol that a glass of wine made him ill." He was, as many other great wirters are, a man who drank to alter his Perceptions of this world.Even Many of his literary works show signs of severe alchoholic depression.
I find the idea that he died of rabies to be rather obsurd. That is because, with the exception of his beloved cat, Poe hated most animals and would avoid them at any point possible. Some statements in the rabies articles also provide the reader with falsified information, Making their sources not credible. Dr. Moran, the man who treated Poe before his death, was a temperance advocate, but not until many years after Poe's death. It is believed by many that Moran saw the destruction of one of America's greatest literary giants and decided he would try to stop it from happening again if he could.
Also, other than the testimony of one doctor, and a list of symptoms that fit hundreds,if not thousands of conditions, no real evidence was given that Poe died of rabies. All that was given, was the testimony of doctors who are not even involved in the same field as rabies (Infectous Disease) but instead the man who originated the rabies theory, is a cardiologist! (Heart Doctor)
There is only one octor in the article who actually specializes in Rabies treatment.
The grounds on which the originator of these theories (The Cardiologist) came to this conclusion is highly questionable. He did not find it in a research hall, nor a hospital lab, nor even just having an epiphony on the crapper. He did it playing a game with a few other doctors. A game listing symptoms of random conditions, and with the initials, locations, and occupations that were all picked at random. I f we were to duplicate this game as an experiment within our class, i bet that we cou8ld find a combination of initials, locations, occupations, and conditions that match those of other people of note. The aditional fact that when describing this game, the doctor used the phrase "Hypothetical Scenarios." For those of you who don't know, Hypothetical means fake, made up, not real, or simply a fictional situation.
I feel that,seeing as how a well informed High school freshman was able to completely dismantle the arguments supporting rabies as the cause of death that it is safe to say that rabies did NOT cause Poe's death. Given the facts supporting the alchoholism theory and disputing the rabies theory, compined with the discrediting of the information produced by the people that follow the rabies theory, that alchoholism is the logical cause of Poe's death.

Jonathon Truehill Final Essay 3 period
In the early morning of september 27, 9 thursday. When snodgrass arrived at Gunner's hall. Poe had a look of "Vacant Stupidity." Acording to Moran and his wife, Poe reached the hospital in a stupor, unaware of who or bought him there. But he knew the identity of his patient-a "great man "
Final exam-- Jessica
I think that the article that is telling the truth is Poe's Death Is Rewritten as Case of Rabies, Not Telltale Alcohol because he didn't died because he drank some alcohol. He maybe wearing different clothes because he got rubbed. He could of not have any symptoms like he had rabies. He use too drink when he was a boy but he probably got over that. Dr.Benitez is trying to prove that he had rabies.
Dr.Benitez is studying his body so he can prove that he wasn't drunk. He knows that he was not drunk or was drinking any alcohol. He tried to proved it by studying his body for a long time. Poe even refused to drink alcohol instead he drank water. Dr.Benitez says that it can take years to feel the symptoms.
My thought is that he had rabies and he didn't die because alcohol and all the thing I said proves it. Drinking sometimes can kill you but I think it more harmful getting rabies. He had to die of rabies because it said that he left alcohol and started drinking water. There could be a possiblity that he could of died because of alcohol but I still think he died because of rabies. Any person can get it without feeling any type of feelings.

FinalDraft
In the famous story of “The Odyssey”, originally told by Homer, moral Greek values are often said throughout the story. Values such as Loyalty, Respect, cunning wit. Were very cultural norms. These values were shown in several chapters. Today we face our world’s situations, which support and relate to the same values. Homer’s story still has relevance in today’s modern world.
Loyalty- The story of Calypso, when Odysseus chooses to go home instead of the promise of beautiful women and immortal. He shows Loyalty to his wife by turning down the hottest chick in the world for his love.
Respect your guests and Gods – When Polyphemus starts trying to eat his guests, Odysseus blinds him. The Men eat the Sun god’s cattle, so the god kills them afterwards. Alcinous is kind and generous to Odysseus through out his stay.
Cunning wit – Odysseus does not allow Polyphemus to be killed because he is the only one who can move the rock in front of the door instead he tells polyphemus that his name is “nobody” so when Odysseus and his men are able to escape.

Lesieli Panuve--The Odyssey
The Odyssey
In the story The Odyssey talks about the ruler of Ithaca named Odysseus. In this story
Odysseus follows the rules of the ancestors where they have values. Some of their values
are respect, loyalty, and trust. To have these values you must follow it. Through
Odysseus’s time he went through so much because he left his newborn son and wife to go
to war for his country. Through the times that he tried to come home he couldn’t.
Through his journey trying to come back home came values. In these values Odysseus
followed it through all the time and wanted people to use it too.
One of the values is Respect. Either to gain respect from others you must show respect to
them. In the story with "Cyclops/Polyphemus" he did not show Odysseus and his men some
respect. He tried to eat them. In a good way to show respect to somebody is in the story
with "King Alcinous" when Odysseus was at his land they gave Odysseus and his men all
their respect by being nice and offering stuff to them, also making them fell like it is their home
too. This is the value that Odysseus follows and shows to other people. This value was very
important to some people those days because it was respectful and not rude. Also you don’t want
to ebarrass yourself in front of others, so if you want respect you must show respect.
The other value of the story was Trust. If you have trust then that means other people can
rely on you. Like Odysseus the men trusted him because he was going to bring them back
home. Also to listen to whom is right before something wrong happens to you, and to do
what is right. To gain trust you must have loyalty and respect and you must show and tell
your people so they may trust you. Like in the story the men followed Odysseus because
he was the leader and they trusted him.
Another value is loyalty. To be loyal you have to be a good person and do good stuff.
To be loyal you must show respect to one another and to have trust. Also being loyal is to not
doing bad things and picking wrong things up.Like Penelope while Odysseus left through all that
time she never slept with another because she was being loyal to Odysseus.
In this story it described some values like Respect, Loyalty, and Trust, it could be shown
in other kinds of different books part of the world these days. Today we can find and
notice these kinds of values in people. These values influences people to know how to
treat others and things. The influences of Greek culture on modern places/people have values in
them.

Jessica Finau--The Odyssey
THE ODYSSEY
In the story “The Odyssey” we talk about a man who was a king in Ithaca, who
goes by the name Odysseus. It talks about the hardships he had to give up and go
through during his journey from the Trojan war all the way back to Ithaca. Not
only did he make it back safely, but he had gone through all the trials and
tribulations of the many places he had passed through. (and believe me it was not
easy!). Today our world also faces similar situations of the same values and
beliefs the Greeks had way back then. So let me give you a little example of three
values that our generation now and the generation way back then have and still
believe in, but in different ways.
The first value that was and still is will have to be RESPECT. About 3,000 years
ago many people of that time believed to have respect when meeting new guests.
You were to welcome your guests with all you have by giving them a place to
stay, food to eat, and a warm place to stay in. There was one thing that was
forbidden to ever do when welcoming a guest and that was Never to ask your
guest for their name! This is an example of what happened in one part of the
Odyssey, when Odysseus and his men welcomed their selves into the cave of
Cyclops. They ate, slept, and did anything they wanted, because your guests and
what else were they suppose to do? Just then Cyclops came in angry that they came and ate all his food,
he had lost it and he threw a temper and out came the words,
"what is your name?" (There you go), he had just broken one of the rules and that was having
Respect to your guests when welcoming them. He later ended up getting punished
not from the gods, but from Odysseus, dagging the knife into his eye!
The next value will be SACRIFICE. During the Greek ages, when wanting to
receive help or trust from the gods you were to sacrifice your best animal. Many
people today don’t do that, because sacrificing something to your god won’t
usually work because they wont just come down and swoop it out of our hands
right? But when we do need help we can always turn to god and pray. This leads
me into a chapter were Odysseus had to give up one of his best animals to
Teresias to learn what his destiny will be. Sacrificing something will make the
gods happy and you usually end up with the things you’ve wanted, but sometimes you
wont get what you've asked for because you’ve done something they seem to not like! But now,
we don’t go through things like that, but we do have times when we have to give
up things in order to do what we are suppose to do. (Right?)
The last value I’m going to talk about is being OBEDIENT. This has to do with
most of us today and way back then. When you are told to do something you are
supposed to do it right? This also has to do with one part in the Odyssey, when
Odysseus had to sacrifice an animal in the land of the dead to Terisias so that he
can learn his destiny. This is an example of being willing to obey. Another
example will be if your parents want you to do something, you listen, but then
you go out of their wishes that’s being untruthful! So the ways before and today
are still the same. Being obedient to your parents is a thing you have to do, but
then it’s what we always end up breaking!
The Odyssey is a myth which reveals many of the Greek values. Such as Respect,
Sacrifice, and Obedience are shown in parts of the story. Today we can see those
same values in everyone but just in a way different way then it was back then.
The influence of the Greek culture on modern civilization has to mainly do with
the same beliefs, but way back many years ago many of the things they did were
more realistic than it is compared to ours.

Daisy Simental. The Odyssey
Odysseus had to sacrifce his family and risk his life to save Troy and to keep his people safe. He went to war to protect his kingdom because he was not ready and wil never be ready tog ive up without a fight. He did it to keep Troy and all who lived there in one piece. (sacrifice)
He trusted his men witht he bag of wind athat the goddess had given him for his return to Troy. But The men disobeyed his orders of not opening the bag and their curiosity made them break the trust Odysseus had for them. Which effectd in a huge strom which made them father than ever from their home land and made it more diffcult to get home safe and in time. Friends are a big part of life if you actully pull your walls down and let them in. Trust the people around you that had made an effort to show there are there for you and that they love you in a sense. In war the person next to you, fighting, must be very close to you...almost like a borther for there for they will fight for you and their people with teeth and nail because they care bout you. (Trustworthy)
Odysseus had to leave his wife and kid when he left to war for Troy. And through all the years that past he stayed very loyal to her. Even thought he had the most gorgouse goddess was putting herself out there for him tellin him to stay with her and never return home. But he remained with the thoughts of his presious wife in his head. When you fall for some one and you fall in love with that person they stay on your mind even when sometimes you wish they didn't. Even if someone more beautiful might come along nothing can compare to your first love and the things they did to make you happy. Beauty will come and go as you age and there will always be a girl or guy who looks better than the one you are with. But people fight the temptation toleave the one they love because they have their eyes fully open and see that they only want one person and beauty has nothing to do with it. The people who cheat and play games are in a childish stage in their mind and need to grow up, if they cant see whats right in front of them they why should you stay waiting? 'Cause one you get in that point in your life and mind that you can see through the hair and make up and really look into their eyes and see them for who they are, thats love. And when he retured to his wife, she like him, had stayed faithful to their love. (Love)
Over coming a fear and learing to cope with what you are given and relizing you need to have courge to over come the battle you are faced with. In the land of the dead Odysseus face something very real his own death. He had to see his destiny and knowing he could not change any of it that he saw. He had to over come the fear of death and deal with the fate that life had handed to him. He had to be able to cope with seeing that. And he did. (Fear)
Sometimes you must do things other people who might look into your world might think you are so crazy but in your mind you have a logica reason for it. He had to come home and find out that many of his men he ahd trusted had betrayed him on his time away from home. mMany tired to seduce his wife but his wife stayed faithful to him. But as for the men, he had to take care of them and make an example of showing that that behavior will not be exceptable inhis kingdom. He killed all the men that had betrayed him while he was gone by cutting off their head. He returned home to his wife and his child that he had not seen since he had left to war ten years ago. From that time he had grown very much since his leaving. He came back, and began to rule his kingdom that he had fought for so long for. (Ruthless)

He had to go in there by himself. Odysseus found out that he was going to be the only one alive and get back home to Ithaca.When he got back to the boat he didn't told his men that he was going to be the only one alive.
The third value that we see in The Odyssey is hope.Odysseus was trying to get home by thinking that soon he will see his family.
