What does the Audience learn about Odysseus from his encounters with his shipmate Elpenor and his mother anticlea?
<span>Odysseus and his crew sail to the region of the Men of Winter and, per Kirke's instructions, make a ritual sacrifice for Teiresias. While waiting for Teiresias, Odysseus cuts down the other phantoms that emerge, including Elpenor, who had fallen from Kirke's roof. Odysseus promises him a proper sailor's burial back on Kirke's island. He also sees his dead mother, Antikleia. Odysseus thought his mother was alive so he is pretty sad and begins to cry.</span>
I believe that Dafoe in Robinson Crusoe believed that the best governors are the ones who work hard and follow honest practices when managing subjects. This may not have been his thinking when he got stranded on the island initially since he was a slave-owner in Brazil but with time and reflection and his relation with his slave Friday I believe he came around to this idea.
