This study of the "Odyssey" argues that Athena's wrath is central to both the structure and the theme of the poem. It shows how an appreciation of the thematic role of Athena's anger elucidates the poem's narrative organisation and its conception of the hierarchical relations between gods and men.

Clay demonstrates that an appreciation of the thematic role of Athena''s anger elucidates the poem''s complex narrative organization and its conception of the hierarchical relations between gods and men.
