Who is the speaker of this poem? What details tell us so?
What will be an ideal response?
- In the first few lines of the poem, the speaker refers to himself as a king; in lines 9–14 we learn that he has traveled widely on the sea, and lines 15–16 that he fought in the Trojan War; the clincher comes in line 33 with its reference to “my son, mine own Telemachus.” Even without the title, we would by now know for certain that the speaker is Ulysses (the Roman name for Odysseus, the eponymous hero of Homer’s Odyssey).
