Answer:

The subject matter deeply reflects the culture that produced it.

Explanation:

Epic is a genre that is highly associated with the heroic deeds of legendary characters. It always impacts the moral belief system of readers. The cultural impact of these long narratives is really high. It shapes the morality with the dealing of godly characters and the consequences faced by the hero for his misdeeds. This imparts a self-assessment to the readers to think about their actions and hence, assisting in the reformation of their beliefs. Homer's 'Iliad' and Odyssey are known as the greatest epics, are quite reflective of this thought.

So by day she’d weave at her great and growing web— by night, by the light of torches set beside her, she would unravel all she’
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The "web" that is mentioned in the passage refers to the burial shroud woven by Penelope as a way of delaying her need to chose a new husband among the many suitors.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative "The Odyssey" tells the story of how Odysseus had been gone from his home for about two decades. His wife had been pestered continuously by the men in the kingdom of Ithaca to remarry and make a new king, for her husband Odysseus had been gone for a long time.

But the cunning Penelope made a plea that she be allowed to weave a burial shroud for her father in law Leartes, who's grown old. She agreed to marry one of the suitors when she finished the shroud. But through cunning and bravery, she would weave the shroud during the day but undo it at night so that the weaving cannot be ever finished until she is sure that Odysseus is back or confirmed dead. This is the web that the passage from Book II mentions, the web being the shroud that she had been weaving as an excuse to not remarry.
