==Other appearances== Telemachus was the subject of numerous [[opera]]s throughout the eighteenth century, most based on Fénelon's version.<ref>{{Cite Grove |last=Monson |first=Dale E. |title=Telemachus}}</ref> Among the most famous of these operas were [[André Cardinal Destouches]]'s ''[[Télémaque (Destouches)|Télémaque]]'' (1714), [[Alessandro Scarlatti]]'s ''[[Telemaco (Scarlatti)|Telemaco]]'' (1718), Gluck's ''[[Telemaco (Gluck)|Telemaco, ossia L'isola di Circe]]'' (1765), [[Giuseppe Gazzaniga]]'s ''Gli errori di Telemaco'' (1776), [[Jean-François Le Sueur]]'s ''Télémaque dans l'île de Calypso ou Le triomphe de la sagesse'' (1796), [[Simon Mayr]]'s ''[[Telemaco (Mayr)|Telemaco nell'isola di Calipso]]'' (1797), and Fernando Sor's ''[[Telemaco (Sor)|Telemaco nell'isola di Calipso]]'' (1797). Telemachus appears in Alfred, Lord Tennyson's 1833 poem "[[Ulysses (poem)|Ulysses]]", where the title speaker (based on Dante's version) hands over his throne to him to spend the rest of his life wandering. Telemachus is a frequent character in the poetry of [[Louise Glück]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.baymoon.com/~ariadne/poets/louise.gluck.htm|title=Louise Glück's Poetry and Prose|website=www.baymoon.com|accessdate=Feb 19, 2023|archive-date=May 29, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220529082635/http://www.baymoon.com/~ariadne/poets/louise.gluck.htm|url-status=live}}</ref> Telemachus was the name of [[Carole King]]'s cat and is pictured on the cover of her album ''[[Tapestry (Carole King album)|Tapestry]]''.<ref>{{Cite news|url = https://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/helen-brown/5201808/Carole-King-interview.html|title = Carole King interview: 'I didn't have the courage to write songs initially'|newspaper = The Telegraph|date = 7 March 2016|last1 = Brown|first1 = Helen|access-date = 5 April 2018|archive-date = 28 December 2012|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121228015247/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/helen-brown/5201808/Carole-King-interview.html|url-status = live}}</ref> "Telemachus" is the title of a poem by American poet [[Ocean Vuong]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.forwardartsfoundation.org/poetry/telemachus/ |title=Telemachus | Forward Arts Foundation |access-date=2018-09-05 |archive-date=2018-09-05 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180905214737/http://www.forwardartsfoundation.org/poetry/telemachus/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>
