Answer:

pride.

Explanation:

This scene, one of the most intriguing ones in the Odyssey, shows at once Odysseus´ pride and trickery, for in having successfully blinded the Cyclops, as he is making his escape along with his men, he yells at the Cyclops Polyphemus that it was him, Odysseus, who blinded him, but he doesn´t use his actual name, but an epithet that Homer uses in other passages to refer to Odysseus, and the epithet means “nobody”: the cyclops complains to other cyclops that he was blinded by “nobody”.

Odysseus' pride gets the best of him. Back then, you wanted people to know who you were by your achievements.

Answer: By challenging accepted principles, Wollstonecraft was one of the first proponents of women's rights

Explanation:

After searching online, I got the options online. Based on the facts, the inference about the passage that is justified is that "By challenging accepted principles, Wollstonecraft was one of the first proponents of women's rights".

Thus is justified as she published a Vindication of the Rights of Woman in 1792 which was in response to the French government report advocating that the women should be educated only for household duties.
