Psychological Activity in the Homeric Circe Episode

Circe guides Odysseus towards the recuperation of his mental powers. First she sends him to Hades, where he recovers his self-awareness. Then she offers him practical advice for the last part of his journey. Yet in all of her instructions there is still room for individual decision-making. In the Odyssey the gods may know the inevitable outcome of certain alternatives, but men's fortune is very much determined by their own decisions.
