Question

Which excerpt from The Odyssey demonstrate the importance of hospitality in Greek society?

Answer 1

Answer:

I would say that the excerpt from The Odyssey that demonstrate the importance of hospitality in Greek society is this one at the beginning: "Here is a poor man come, a wanderer, driven by want to beg his bread, and everyone in hall gave bits, to cram his bag-only Antinous threw a stool, and banged his shoulder".

Explanation:

These lines show how people in Greek society react when they see a poor man, they share what they have, they try to help him. This is very clear in the excerpt when the speaker says: "everyone in hall gave bits, to cram his bag". People seem to care about this "wanderer", they have a solidary attitude towards him.
