    Scylla and Charybdis Analysis

    Analysis: I think that O should have went threw Charybdis because he should have gone done with all his crew and ship. I think he should have chosen to die with honor rather the risk some of his men life to get home. I think his decision was selfish and at the end he still lost his men anyway so if these course were unbeatable then why did he not just chose to die in and honorable way than to be selfish.
