what is the name of the father from odysseus?

Answer 1

In Greek mythology, Laërtês (Greek: Λαέρτης) was the son of Arcesius (also spelled Arceisius) and Chalcomedusa. He was father of Odysseus and Ctimene by his wife Anticlea, daughter of the thief Autolycus. Laërtes was an Argonaut and participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. Laërtes's title was King of the Cephallenians, which he presumably inherited from his father Arcesius and grandfather Cephalus. His realm included Ithaca and surrounding islands, and perhaps the neighboring part of the mainland.

Another version of the story says that he was not Odysseus' real father, which was Sisyphus who had seduced Anticlea.

Answer 2

Odysseus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Odysseus and the Sirens.Odysseùs Laërtiádēs (Greek: Ὀδυσσεὺς Λαερτιάδης', 'son of Laertes'), or simply Odysseus, is a character in Greek mythology. His name has several variants: Olysseus (Ὀλυσσεύς), Oulixeus (Οὐλιξεύς), Oulixes (Οὐλίξης), and he was known as Ulysses or Ulixes in Roman mythology. His name means "son of pain" according to Homer, or perhaps more likely, it comes from the Greek οδηγός: odēgós, "a guide; the one showing the way". It may also mean "pain" in the sense of the "the one inflicting and suffering pain" - ironically, nearly always he suffers pain (mental and/or physical) in return if he inflicts pain on some one and vice versa.

He is the central character of Homer's Odyssey, renowned for his guile and resourcefulness, and a major character in the Iliad. He is most famous for the ten years it took him to return home from the Trojan War. Odysseus was the king of Ithaca, husband of Penelope and father of Telemachus, and son of Laertes and Anticlea, though some sources, prominent among them Iphigenia at Aulis by Euripides, give Sisyphus as his father.

For a character of such prominence in the Iliad, one of Agamemnon's principal lieutenants, Odysseus' pedigree is relatively obscure. Laertes' father (or stepfather) is Arceisius, a son of Cephalus (eponymous founder of Cephallenia), and grandson of Aeolus. Ithaca was one of several islands that formed Odysseus' kingdom, along the Ionian coastline of Greece. Odysseus' realm also appears to have including a small foothold on the mainland, near the mouth of the river Achelous. The exact extent of the Cephallenian realm, and the identities of the individual islands given by Homer, is unclear.
