skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The belief that Zeus and the other gods are supreme over all things and that helping strangers, extending hospitality to the guests was a popular belief in Greek custom which Odysseus is referring to in his speech.

Explanation:

Homer's epic "The Odyssey" is the story of the protagonist Odysseus and his journey back home to Ithaca after the Battle of Troy. The book contains the numerous obstacles and encounters he had during his journey back.

The given excerpt is from Book IX of the epic where Odysseus and his men had stolen food and sheep from the Cyclops Polyphemus. The Greeks believe in the custom of extending hospitality to their guests, even strangers. So, in this speech by Odysseus, he alluded to the <u>issue of hospitality where instead of extending help and service to the strangers</u> who had come to his home, he (Polyphemus) ate them and hurt them. This is the cultural value that is shown in the given excerpt.

How does johnnys finals words to ponhboy help develop the storys theme
algol [13]

Answer: Johnny wants his friend Ponyboy to remain forever young in mind and spirit.

Explanation:

<em>The Outsiders (1967)</em> is S.E. Hinton's novel about the orphan boys - Ponyboy and his two brothers, Soda and Darry, and their teen gang called <em>'the Greasers'</em>. In the gang, there are four other boys: Johnny Cade, Dallas Winston, Keith Matthews, and Steve Randle.

At the end of the novel, Johnny tells Ponyboy to "stay gold." This is a phrase from "Nothing Gold Can Stay", a Robert Frost poem which Ponyboy recited in the old church. The theme of the poem, which is also present in the book itself, is that life is short, and one should spend their youth in a best possible way. What Johnny is trying to point out is that Pony should stay forever young, kind and innocent.
