Read this passage from I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings: ...some people, unable to go to school, were more educated and even more

intelligent than college professors. She encouraged me to listen carefully to what country people called mother wit. That in those homely sayings was couched the wisdom of generations. What impact does Angelou's use of the phrase "the wisdom of generations" have on this excerpt? It conveys the fact that she does not believe that educated people can be truly wise. It conveys the humor at the heart of the sayings that she is referring to. It conveys the respect she has for what people without a formal education say. It conveys her confusion over what Mrs. Flowers is trying to teach her.

kobusy [5.1K]
Agamemnon was the leader of the Greek troops in the Trojan wars and Orestes was his son. When Agamemno returned from the war, he was murdered by his wife's lover in conjunction with his wife. Orestes could not stop them but he seeked vengeance for his father. After a long time, he found them and avenged his father while killing them. He killed his mother, but Greek mythology claims that his act was just and he was spared the remorse and the guilt. There are a lot of similarities with the Ulysses/Telemachus father son pair. Ulysses was also one of the leaders of the excursion to Troy. He still has not returned home, but in a sense the suitors of Penelope are marring his estate and his reputation. While Penelope is faithful to Ulysses, the suitors by taking hold of the palace and committing their shameful acts are dishonoring Ulysses. In the same context, Telemachus is asked just like Orestes to restitute his father's honor, regardless of whether he is alive or dead. Athena is helping him and encouraging him with this example and he himself feels the need to save his father's honor.
