Answer:

-Her disguise made her appear older than Telemachus.

Explanation:

Homer's "The Odyssey" tells the story of how Odysseus returned back to his kingdom Ithaca after almost two decades of being away. The whole journey way back home also involves numerous encounters with gods, goddesses and even other demi-gods, good and bad, all playing an important role in his development as the person he was when he reached home.

In Book III, Telemachus, Odysseus' son, had went on a journey to try to find his father along with several men and Minerva/ Athena in disguise. When they had reached the place of Nestor at Pylos, they were invited to join in their feast. At this, Thrasymedes gave the wine cup to Athena in disguise as Mentor, telling her that <em>"he is younger than you are, and is much of an age with myself, so I will give you the precedence"</em>.

Thus, Minerva/ Athena was given the wine cup first because of her old age appearance as compared to the others.

Write a 2 Page Note on The Language &amp; Style of The Good Morrow Poem.​
kogti [31]

Answer:

“The Good Morrow” is an aubade—a morning love poem—written by the English poet John Donne, likely in the 1590s. In it, the speaker describes love as a profound experience that's almost like a religious epiphany. Indeed, the poem claims that erotic love can produce the same effects that religion can. Through love, the speaker’s soul awakens; because of love, the speaker abandons the outside world; in love, the speaker finds immortality. This is a potentially subversive argument, for two reasons. First, because the poem suggests that all love—even love outside of marriage—might have this transformative, enlightening effect. Second, because of the idea that romantic love can mirror the joys and revelations of religious devotion.
