OLIVARES CHAVEZ, Carolina. The Presence of Odysseus in Xenophon’s Anabasis. Nova tellus [online]. 2021, vol.39, n.1, pp.71-86.  Epub 05-Maio-2021. ISSN 0185-3058.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.nt.2021.39.1.27544.

In this article we intend to trace Homeric references within Xenophon’s Anabasis, in order to prove the Historian constructs an Epic text in which he immortalizes his own exploits among Persians and compares himself with the hero Odysseus. I also consider other works of Xenophon as Banquet, Memorabilia and Apology, since there he describes the poems of Homer as an essential part of his own Greek culture in IV Century. Among the main sources I have consulted, ancient and modern, are Homer, Christos Tsagalis and Emer­son Cerdas. And while Naoko Yamagata founds only one Homeric reference in Anabasis, I find two direct references and several indirect references which allude to the hero and to certain situations in Odisea Xenophon similarly faced.
