Resumo

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to discuss some passages of the Odyssey that are important to the characterization of Penelope as “undecided” – at the same time someone who is victim and in the control of her destiny. I’ll try to show (as others did before) that this indecision, far from making Penelope an incongruous character, is responsible for her complexity and has a decisive role in drawing the narrative to an end.
