Moreover, women have real feelings, are able to accomplish men on their own and have real plans which are very important to accomplish what they start (Bloom, 1988). Most importantly, the story portrays all three women as playing an important role in offering different elements to the story that are essential in the entire story. According to the story, all the women in the story play an important role in helping the hero accomplish his works. The goddesses control the role of the Odyssey, allowing him to complete his journey (Homer & Lattimore, 1967). Conclusion In summary, it must be said that all women in ancient Greece were treated as inferior to their male counterparts and were not allowed to mix with men and participate in the operations that take place in the society. With all the women in the epic, there are very few women who play significant roles, an act that shows that men dominated society during this time. On the other hand, the women of the Odyssey seem to play a very important role in bringing out the true character of the epics.
