Because there was a demented HOUND that had been tormented by Sir Henry's enemies to try to kill him. And, his enemies had stolen a shoe, Sir H's scent from which had been sniffed by the HOUND !!!! Dartmoor, UK, is a pretty desolate place when it's the 1800s and there's a hound hounding you. Even i you are the heir to "The Baskerville Fortune" ... Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson ....
I think the answer is the waiter
According to Nancy Sherman inculpation is on the one hand , illogical and on the other hand it is reasonable. One blames oneself when something, which one´s responsibility to do well, goes wrong. Odysseus went to war and had to face innumerable difficulties which were out of his hands to handle.He must have asked himself whether it was a good idea to take one way or the other when he was navigating, although the choice would have always brought some impediments and difficulties.For example, the mermaids made men jump into the sea and the temptation was too hard to resist even when the men were tied to the ship´s masts.Storms are natural and Odysseus was not accountable for their happening while they were sailing.He could never have predicted the approaching of Cyclopes when he decided to stop in that island for food and water. Finally, Odysseus is not to blame for his crew´s fate.He did the best he could but was unble to prevent the misfortunes that caused the dead of most of his crew.
