Answer:

C. He is filled with sorrow and hides his tears in his cloak.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative poem "The Odyssey" tells the journey of Odysseus in his attempts to reach his home Ithaca. Enduring a plethora of hardships and even an intervention from the gods, he reached his home after being away for more than two decades.

Book VIII of the narrative takes place in the land of the Phaeacians. Odysseus was a guest in the kings palace, though in a disguise and no one remembered him. But through the feasting and sharing of news/ stories, Odysseus was emotional to hear of old tales and all about his known associates. Then, when the musician played the music, he could no longer control himself. The singer Demodocus sang about the "<em>feats of heroes, and more especially a matter that was then in the mouths of all men, to wit, the quarrel between Ulysses and Achilles, and the fierce words that they heaped on one another</em>". All these filled Odysseus with sorrow and he had to hide his face to wipe his tears away, without the knowledge of the Phaeacians.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The setting plays an important role in the development because it helps the reader to understand where the story takes place and what is happening throughout it. It gives the story a place to come to life. It also helps the whole greek mythology story come to life. And as the story comes to life, it helps to construct a plot and build a well minded book.

The setting serves as a character because it holds and influences the plot. It also helps find the values, beliefs, and morals found within the characters of the story. It helps the characters to build relationships with others and to fulfill any adventure or “mission they go on.
