In our groups today, we talked about Canto XXVI. Ulysses
pushed his limits as a human by trying to get to the end of the world. This
doesn’t sound like something terribly bad, but it is because God should be the
only one to be able to do something as un-human as that. Ulysses’ desires put
his life in danger, as well as many other men. When journeying to the end of
the world, it is apparent that Ulysses had good, persuasive leadership skills
when guiding his men, but he used them for evil rather than for the good. This is
something that relates to society today. There are many potential leaders out
there, but they lead in the wrong direction. Many people try to do things that
they shouldn’t, which push the limits that God has given us, much like Ulysses
did.
