Join us for the new session of our discussion series **“A Night With…”**, where we dive into timeless myths and their universal messages. Following our last session, where we explored the journey of Orpheus, this the time to delve into the *nostos* (gr. "homecoming") of Odysseus, and moreover into this complex but manifold character. **What to expect:** * I will open the meetup with a short introduction to Odysseus’ myth and share (or suggest) a few possible interpretations and connections. * After that, the floor is yours! Bring your thoughts, reflections, and any links you see between this myth and other domains, e.g. literature, art, philosophy, psychology, history or even your own creative work. * If you’re an artist and your work resonates with the divine twins' story, feel free to share it with the group. **Before the event:** Take 5 minutes to read the quick snippet of Odysseus’ myth (provided below👇🏽) and think of: * A book, artwork, or personal reflection that relates to her story. * Any modern parallels or insights you’d like to discuss. This is a space for **open dialogue, creativity, and shared exploration**. ### ### **🌊The story of Odysseus in Brief** **🏛️ Chaper 1. Before Troy – The Mind of Odysseus** Odysseus, king of Ithaca, is not the strongest Greek hero—that is Achilles—but he is the most intelligent, strategic, and persuasive. His defining traits: **Metis** **Persuasion and diplomacy** **Pragmatism:** Key early acts of wit: 1\. Avoiding the war \(feigned madness\) When Helen is taken to Troy, Odysseus tries to avoid joining the war. He pretends to be insane—ploughing the fields and sowing salt. But Palamedes tests him by placing his infant son Telemachus in front of the plough. Odysseus swerves to avoid harming him, revealing his sanity. 2\. Recruiting Achilles Odysseus is sent to find Achilles, who is hidden among women to avoid war. Odysseus cleverly lays out jewels and weapons; Achilles instinctively chooses the weapons, revealing himself. 3\. The Oath of Tyndareus Before Helen’s marriage, Odysseus had proposed a solution to avoid conflict: all suitors swear to defend the chosen husband. This idea later binds the Greek kings together in the Trojan War. **⚔️ Chapter 2. The Trojan War – Strategy Over Strength** During the ten-year war, Odysseus becomes indispensable not for combat, but for turning points. Key contributions: 1\. The theft of the Palladium 2\. The Trojan Horse \(his greatest invention\) **🌊 Chapter 3. The *Nostos *** After victory, Odysseus’ journey home takes another 10 years. This is where his intelligence is constantly tested, but also where his flaws emerge. Main episodes: **🧠 The Cyclops (Polyphemus)** **👉 This triggers Poseidon’s curse** **🍃 The Bag of Winds** **🧙 Circe** **⚰️ The Underworld** **🎶 The Sirens** **⚖️ Scylla and Charybdis** **🏝️ Calypso** **🏠Chapter 4. Return to Ithaca** After 20 years, Odysseus returns, but does not reveal himself. His palace is overrun by suitors. They consume his wealth and pressure Penelope to remarry. He returns as a beggar, observes before acting, thus testing loyalty (servants, son Telemachus, wife). Gradually reveals himself only to trusted individuals: Telemachus and a few loyal servants Penelope in her final attempt to stop the suitors, launches a challenge: only the man who can string Odysseus’ bow can marry her. None succeed. Odysseus (in disguise) strings it effortlessly. He reveals himself and kills them. **⚖️ Chapter 5. After Ithaca: Beyond the Happy Ending** The story doesn’t simply end with victory. Families of the suitors seek revenge, and civil conflict threatens Ithaca. Athena intervenes by imposing peace Ends the cycle of violence. 📃📜**Principal ancient sources:** * Homer, *Iliad* * Homer, *Odyssey* * Sophokles, *Ajax*, *Philoktetes* * Euripides, *Hecuba*, *Cyclops* * Ovid, *Metamorphoses* * Virgil, *Aeneid* * Dante Alighieri, *Divina Commedia - Inferno* | | | --- | |

**gelato & awe walk 🍦🌳** (**May 23rd**\, Saturday 14:00 \| **Meeting point:** Kő Fagyi? a Bartókon) **Welcome to the unplugged club Budapest ✨** This Saturday we'll enjoy the nice weather outdoors by grabbing a gelato or a drink of your choice (optional) and going for an awe walk towards the recently reopened Citadella. ***What is an awe walk?*** An awe walk is a brief, intentional stroll where you shift your focus outward to notice and appreciate the beauty, vastness, and wonder of the world around you. Backed by psychology and popularized by researchers, it is a proven mindfulness practice designed to reduce stress and boost your mood. The goal is not to get a workout or run errands, but rather to experience amazement and cultivate a "small self" perspective (the feeling of being connected to something much larger than yourself). Read more about it here: [https://www.mindful.org/how-to-take-an-awe-walk](https://www.mindful.org/how-to-take-an-awe-walk/) [https://www.awakin.org/v2/read/view.php?tid=2598](https://www.awakin.org/v2/read/view.php?tid=2598) **〜 What to expect** ◦ We'll go for a slow walk towards Citadella, taking in the surroundings ◦ You can choose to socialize or focus on the awe walk ◦ Bring a blanket or snacks if you'd like, as we might sit somewhere after our walk **〜 Meeting point** Kő Fagyi? a Bartókon Budapest, Bartók Béla út 35, 1114 **〜 Schedule** 14:00 – Arrival & ordering (there's usually a line) 14:15 – Slow walk towards Citadella & exploring the area 15:15 – 16:00 –Hang out & informal conversation ☻ Let's unplug for a few hours ☻

Karin Tidbeck svéd író, és tudja hogy kell disztópiát írni, méghozzá a tundrán egy elszigetelt ipartelepen. Írásában olyan elvárásokat kérdőjelez meg, hogy mennyi információt kell mindenképpen megosztania, hogy még regénynek érezzük ezt a könyvet, mi mindent lehet elhagyni, hogy egy absztrakt műalkotással fejezzen ki valami teljesen egyedit és újat? Amíg a Netflix sorozatok afelé haladnak, hogy mindent szájba rágjanak, mert úgyis mobilt nyomkodsz mellette, itt épp az ellenkezője igaz, mikor az olvasó fantáziája nélkül nem épülhet fel a történet. Lesz min morfondírozni, ha elolvasod ezt a könyvet! ;-)

**History** The [Franklin Park Conservatory](https://www.fpconservatory.org/)’s roots trace back to 1852 when the Franklin County Agricultural Society purchased 88 acres of land to host the Ohio State Fair. After the fair moved to its permanent home, the city of Columbus transformed the grounds into Franklin Park in 1884. This transition shifted the space from a temporary event site to a dedicated public green space for the growing community. The park became a central hub for outdoor recreation and early civic gatherings in the neighborhood. In 1895, the landmark Victorian-style Palm House opened its doors, drawing heavy inspiration from the Glass Palace of the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. This iron and glass structure became an immediate icon, housing exotic plants that residents would otherwise never see in the Midwest. It remains the oldest part of the facility and serves as a primary link to the conservatory’s 19th-century origins. For decades, it stood as a singular testament to grand horticultural architecture in Central Ohio. A major turning point arrived in 1992 when Columbus hosted AmeriFlora '92, an international horticultural exhibition. This massive event prompted a $16 million renovation and expansion, adding significantly more greenhouse space and the Dorothy M. Davis Showhouse. The festival put the conservatory on the international map and fundamentally changed its scale and ambition. Following the event, the facility transitioned from a city-run park to a private, non-profit organization. In 2003, the conservatory’s identity was further defined through a long-term partnership with world-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly. After a successful exhibition, the Friends of the Conservatory purchased most of the glass installations, creating the largest permanent collection of Chihuly’s work in a botanical setting. These vibrant glass sculptures are now woven throughout the biomes, blending art with nature. This addition helped cement the conservatory as a premier cultural destination rather than just a botanical garden. Recent years have seen the site expand beyond the glass walls to emphasize community engagement and outdoor education. The 2018 opening of the Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation Children’s Garden added two acres of interactive landscape designed for hands-on learning. The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company Community Garden Campus also provides local residents with space to grow their own food and learn sustainable practices. Today, the conservatory balances its historic Victorian charm with modern commitments to local ecology and the Columbus community. **Maps of the Conservatory** Here is the [main map](https://www.fpconservatory.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/franklin-park-zones-scaled.jpg) of the Conservatory grounds. Here's a [map of the areas](https://www.fpconservatory.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/ConstructionMap-2026.jpg) in which the Conservatory has ongoing construction (see below). **Summary** For this event, we'll explore Columbus's highly-rated and very popular Conservatory. As mentioned above, the Conservatory is doing renovations on parts of the facility. These renovations are scheduled to be ongoing until the Fall of next year. Basically, no matter when you go to the Conservatory over the next 18 months, you're going to see some metaphorical orange barrels. So let's just go now. **Tickets and pricing** On the first Sunday of every month, the Conservatory is free for residents of Franklin County and the city of Columbus. You must bring an ID to receive this discount. (Yes, they do check.) Otherwise, tickets are $25.20. Members of the Columbus Zoo (of which I am one) do get a discount on tickets, though I have never actually bought a ticket to the Conservatory (I've always gone on free days). I believe the discount is $4. Parking is always free. If you have additional questions about pricing or whether and for what you qualify, you can reach the Conservatory at 614-715-8000. **Where we'll meet** We will meet just outside the main entrance. I guarantee there's going to be a line. The Conservatory is always popular on free days, and especially in nice weather. **Your GPS is stupid!** Be careful simply typing "Franklin Park Conservatory" in your GPS and going where it tells you. The only way to access the parking lot to the Conservatory is off of Broad Street. Unfortunately, since Google Maps is unable to find its way out of a wet paper bag, it has a tendency to want to take people to a mythical, non-existent Conservatory entrance on Nelson Road. If your GPS does this, just drive to the north side of the Conservatory along Broad Street. Your GPS should then redirect you to the main Conservatory entrance. If your GPS doesn't, then throw your phone away\* and look for the big Conservatory sign on the south side of Broad Street between Nelson Road and Franklin Park West. You also should be able to use the map pin I've provided, below, and it should properly direct you to where you need to drive. \* Don't really do this. **After the event** After stopping to smell the roses, for those that are interested, we'll head to the nearby [Columbus Brewing Company Beer Hall](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/) for [drinks](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/#draft-list) and [lunch](https://columbusbrewing.com/location/beer-hall/#food-menu). The Beer Hall's actual address is [200 Kelton Ave, Columbus, OH 43205](https://www.google.com/maps/place/200+Kelton+Ave,+Columbus,+OH+43205/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x883889a94ac4acad:0xadb2e60240dbc38b?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111) (it's literally just on the south side of the Conservatory). Be sure this is where your GPS is taking you when you use it, as the Brewing Company has a taproom on Harrison Avenue that is *not* what you want for this event. We should be at the Beer Hall by 1 if you can't make the Conservatory and just want to join us for drinks.
