The answer is: Anticleia is explaining why Odysseus cannot embrace her.

In the excerpt from "The Oddysey," Odysseus travels to the underworld, where he finds his mother's spirit. She tells him she has died of sadness, while waiting for him to go back from war. However, when Odysseus wishes to embrace his mother, he finds out her body is not composed of matter - it has no material existance and his arms pass through her. Anticleia is extremely upset, and explains that ghosts have no physical solidness.

The poem says a lot about the theme of time passing and looks fading. The woman in the poem regrets the loss of youth and beauty
kykrilka [37]

Answer and Explanation:

This is a personal question about your opinion. I will provide an example below. Feel free to add or edit anything to fit your beliefs and opinions:

<u>My definition of beauty does go beyond looks, although I must agree that all of us probably still judge people first based on their appearance. Still, I believe personality, character, manners, and actions are a better way to convey one's true beauty. Indeed, it is what most people would call "inner beauty", and I truly think it exists. </u>

<u>If someone despises or mistreats others, no matter how physically beautiful that someone is, we will end up finding them ugly because their actions and traits are ugly. The same happens the other way around. A person may not be considered very attractive, but if they are gentle, polite, and intelligent, for instance, we will perceive that person as beautiful and will prefer their company over the attractive but rude person.</u>
