[LM_NET] SEC: The Odyssey character study reference materials

[Cindy Staley <whizpop37@YAHOO.COM>]

Hi there, 
I'm collaborating with a 9th grade English teacher on a research project 
surrounding The Odyssey. We have some general reference books/online 
sources (mostly ency's) which describe the characters briefly but we are looking 
for something a little more in depth that the students could use to find out more 
about the characters in the poem before they tackle reading it - just to give them 
some background knowledge to help with understanding. If anyone is aware of a good 
reference set or some such which would fit the bill, I would greatly appreciate it! 
Thank you,
Cindy Staley, LMS
