Question

Which TWO portions of text in these excerpts from Book 12 of Homer's Odyssey portray the theme of leadership?

Answer 1

A and B.

In excerpt A, the theme of leadership is shown because the men are trying to call for him to listen to them and stay to hear the sirens.

In excerpt B, Odysseus is showing that he will stand strong on the deck of the ship and face the monster head on, even though it has already killed so many of his men.

Odysseus shows here that he is a true leader by getting them through both of these crises.
