Why is Calypso so angry that she has to let Odysseus go?

English
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A: Male gods are allowed to have lovers and goddesses are not.

Explanation:

Homer's epic "The Odyssey" tells the journey of the character Odysseus' journey home to Ithaca after almost two decades of being away. His journey also involves an encounter with numerous gods and goddesses, either working alongside him and also at times against him.

Book V of the text shows the messenger of the Gods, Hermes, delivering the news/order of Zeus to the nymph Calypso to release Odysseus. She had no choice but to comply but not before she had delivered an impassioned speech about how goddesses are not allowed to openly have mortal lovers while that isn't the case for the male gods. She complains about the chain of power over the goddesses compared to the gods, even though all are gods in themselves. She questions why the male gods are allowed to have mortal lovers while the female gods are made to surrender their mortal lovers.

Which of the following is NOT an important component of the publishing phase of writing?
8090 [49]
Margins are not an important component of the publishing phase of writing. On the other hand, when text should meet it's first readers, other three listed components are pretty important. You should choose the good font, which is easy and enjoyable to read. Also, if you want to introduce yourself as a serious writer, you can not leave spelling mistakes in your text. Spacing is equally important. If you don't separate the words and sentences precisely, you will look sloppy, and the reader may have difficulties understanding your text.
