The Cyclops’ effort to move the stone is compared to a simple task, showing his strength.
This excerpt belongs to The Odyssey. The plot:
<em>"Ten years have gone since the fall of Troy, and the Greek legend Odysseus still has not come back to his kingdom in Ithaca. An expansive and rambunctious horde of suitors who have to invade Odysseus' royal residence and looted his territory keep on pursuing his significant other, Penelope. She has stayed reliable to Odysseus. Sovereign Telemachus, Odysseus' child, needs frantically to toss them out yet does not have the certainty or experience to battle them. One of the suitors, Antinous, plans to kill the youthful ruler, disposing of the main restriction to their domain over the royal residence."</em>
The theme that best established the conflict in this passage is:
Advances in technology can lead to devastation.
In a way the author tries to explain that even with our incredible technological advances and superior knowledge, the gods can have the possibility of destroying themselves with nuclear weapons.
