From the above excerpt, it can be learned about the ancient Greeks that:
They believed the gluttony and disobedience are negative traits.
They believed that the gods punish people for acting badly.
They believed in the importance of strength in battle.
Odysseus tells about his men who ate the sheep and drank the wine until their stomach was full. After they were full the Cicones' army attacked them which was a consequence of the butcher nature of his men. Greeks had the idea that the punishment for gluttony and disobedience is sure to come. They believed that one should be brave and fearless while fighting in a battle. For them, the God was omniscient who rewarded or punished people of their dead.
Denise Levertov (1923-1997) was an American poet and anti-war activist. <span>She felt it was part of her calling to point out the injustice of the </span>Vietnam War<span>, and she read some of her poems at the protest rallies in which she took part. The two poems mentioned here touch on the circumstances of the war in South East Asia that the USA was involved in at the time</span>. In "Overhead in Southeast Asia" she wrote:
<span>"White phosphorus, white phosphorus, mechanical snow, where are you falling?" "I am falling impartially on roads and roofs, on bamboo thickets, on people."
This was a powerful indictment on the atrocities of chemical warfare. In the other poem, "Life at War" she described the human tragedy in a similar way.
"The disasters numb within us, caught in the chest, rolling in the brain like pebbles. the feeling resembles lumps of raw dough..."
Levertov spread her anti-war message through her literary work. After reading her poems we cannot escape her powerful message that the conflict was both horrific and futile.

The option which is not one of the things he cannot give up is the queen.
He doesn't really need Gertrude anymore - all he ever wanted was the throne, the wealth, and the power that killing Hamlet's father allowed him to have. He never cared for the queen - marrying her was just a way for him to achieve his goals.
