The first scene begins in Ulisse's palace, where his wife Penelope is being helped by her nurse, Ericlea. Penelope talks to Ericlea of how lonely she feels waiting for her husband to return from the war. This is followed by a duet between Melanto, Penelope's attendant, and Eurimacus, Melanto's lover. In the second scene, Jove and Neptune discuss the gods' punishement of the sins of man. The scene changes once again, finding Ulisse on a Phaeacian ship as he nears Ithaca. While sleeping, Ulisse is placed on the shore of Ithaca, but upon awakening, he believes he has been marooned...

Ce fut le premier opéra de Claudio Monteverdi pour Venise. L'opéra fut créé avec beaucoup de succès à Venise, où il fut joué dix fois, il fut ensuite repris au Teatro Castrovillani de Bologne, et en 1641 il fut rejoué à Venise.
La guerre de Troie est terminée. Pénélope attend toujours le retour d'Ulysse. Elle lui reste fidèle et repousse les avances des prétendants. Aidé par Minerve, Ulysse revient déguisé en mendiant....
