Part 16/17:
Today, the Odyssey continues to sail across time as a living dialogue. It appears in diverse adaptations—literary, visual, musical—and remains a touchstone for explorations of displacement, belonging, and human connection.
Like Odysseus himself, the epic is not a static story but a voyage without end, constantly redefined by its readers, performers, and creators. Its enduring power lies in its reflection of the universal human journey — a perpetual balancing act between wandering and coming home, change and continuity.
