After reading Book VI i noticed that Nausicaa was a kind person. I feel this way because when she finds Odysseus on the beach at Scheria she helps him out. She did this by giving him a place to stay at her parents' castle. This is why I think Nausicaa is a ncie person.
Naussica is trying to hold the fact that she is falling in love with Odysseus. For example, Athene makes Oddyseus look very handsome and that's when Naussica is starting to fall in love. She also is the kind of person that knows how to be patient. Because, even when Athene tries to make her fall in love with him, she doesn't fall for it and just tells him the right way to go. She's the daughter of King Alcinious. SHe is a very nice person becuase she gives him a warm place at her parent's palace. So over all, Naussica is a very nice person.
Nausicaa is a beautiful young girl that was the daughter of King Alcinous. Nausicca, firstly, is a really good girl that listens to orders, I can prove this from the fact that she listened to what Athene told her to do in her dream, "...and to make your father and mother proud of you. Suppose then, that we make tomorrow a washing day, and start at day break..", this passage was said by Athena in Nausicca's dream, and in the morning, Nausicca woke up and the first thing she did was to ask his father for the wagon to carry clothes to wash at the river, "Father dear, could you manage to let me have a good big wagon? I want to take all our dirty clothes to the river and wash them."
Nausicaa is the daughter of king Alcinous. Nausicca is a very lazy, beautiful young girl. " Here are your clothes all lying in disorder, yet you are going to be married almost immediately and should not only be well dressed yourself but should find good clothes for those who attend you." Nausicaa is very lazy. She makes her maidservants pick her outfits out and she is more than capable of doing so.
Nausicaa is a kind person, even though she is in a high class family she is not stuck up. There are many examples proving this in Book VI. One example is that when she first met Odysseus she said to him, “I will show you the way to town, and will tell you the name of our people; we are called Phaeacians, and I am the daughter of Alcinous, in whom the whole power of the state is vested”(78). Another example of this is when she has her servants to feed and bathe Odysseus. “… so, girls, give the stranger something to eat and drink, and wash him in the stream at some place that is sheltered from the wind”(78).
Nausicaa is good charactor. This is because she listens to what Athene tells her in her sleep. Also, she goes and helps Oddysseus. That is why Nausicaa is a good charactor
I think that Nausicca is a lazy person. This is beacuse in Book VI it says " Nausicaa, what can you mother have been about, to have such a lazy daughter? Here are your clothes all lying in disorder, yet you are going to be married almost immedediately." This is what Nusiicaa does to prove that she is a lazy person.
Nausicca is a smart and kind person. She is kind because she helps out Odysseus when he wakes up by having her maids give him a bath, clothes, and oil. She is smart because she did not want Odysseus to go in the kart so people don’t think she picked up a random man to marry instead of a townsperson.
Nusiacca is nice person i think because she washes Athena's clothes for her. Also she gives Odysseus directions to the palace and advice on how to approach Arete, queen of the Phaeacians, when he meets her.
Nausicaa is a charming young maiden but she is also sly because she hides the fact that she is falling in love with Odysseus. She is charming because she finds Odysseus washed up on the sands of scheria and offers him a place to say in her father, King Alcinous’s, castle. When Athena makes Odysseus look handsome, Nausicaa falls for him but realizes that Athena is setting her up so she doesn’t say anything but just shows Odysseus the way.
