The Bard is a character that in the epic poem of the Odyssey fulfills the function of telling stories. There are two throughout this epic novel: Phemius and Demodocus.
The bards were characters that narrated the events. Thanks to the inspiration of the muses they told important stories for the region. That is why they were well received by the banqueters. Thanks to them they not only informed themselves but they entertained themselves.
In the Odyssey the two Bards that appear narrate trojan stories. The place that everyone knew was where Odysseus had disappeared.
