Imagery of Poseidon Lyrics by Madeline Sigler

0

This section of the passage focuses on the imagery of Poseidon conjuring up the sea in order to send Odysseus off his course. The term imagery means to create a mental picture for the audience and readers. Imagery was especially important for epic poems told in acient Greece. Without written stories, imagery helped both the audience and the narrator remember the story and also make it more exciting in the process. In this specific passage, Poseidon is shown in all his powerful glory as he "gathered together great clouds" and "rolled out a gigantic wave" (Powell, 293). The imagery contained in this section of the passage creates the mental picture of Poseidon as a powerful being, making his wrath on Odysseus that much more threatening.
