| Literary devices - Personification | 'When Dawn had risen from the bed where she sleeps...' - giving sunrise human qualities makes the opening of book 5 more engaging. |
| Heroic Values - Nostos | Odysseus misses Ithaca. He also fears being forgotten by the people of his island and his son, Telemachus. If there were no nostos, the character would have no motivation to continue his journey. |
| Fate and Intervention by the Gods - Poseidon | "Nevertheless I mean to let him have a bellyful of trouble yet..." Poseidon is angry that the other Gods have undermined him regarding Odysseus. |
| Justice and Revenge - Double Standards | Male Gods and mortals have no law of adultery and sexuality, whereas women do. This angers the goddess Calypso. "You are outraged if a goddess sleeps openly with a man, even if she has chosen him as her husband." |
| Family Relationships - Odysseus and Calypso | Calypso forces Odysseus to have sex with her every night for 7 years. This increases his feeling of nostos because he misses his wife Penelope. This is why we meet Odysseus on the beach, crying. |
| Xenia | Good xenia: Calypso shows Hermes xenia, and invites him in for hospitality before getting down to business. |
| Fate and Intervention by the Gods - Patriarchy on Olympus | Even though Gods preside over mortals, there is a hierarchy on Olympus, with Zeus ruling over all of the other gods, along with his brothers. There is also a gender divide among the Gods. (eg. Athene has to ask Zeus to help Odysseus because she doesn't have the right to do it herself.) |
| Women's roles - sex | Women essentially exist for mens pleasure. Even Goddesses are restricted in their sexual liberty, as Calypso explains to Hermes. |
