Answer 1

People most times cannot be trusted. The men open the bag because they think Odysseus is keeping something from them. The men disobey him and as such He was not happy that they disobeyed him due to their greed but still sought for help on all their behalf.

• He  went to Aeolus again but Aeolus refuses to help them. This makes  Odysseus believes the gods hate him  and wish to him Him.

• Though He was not happy with them for disobeying him, but he still took it upon himself to seek for a solution to the issue his men has placed on him. This shows that even he is a good leader who has the interest of his men at heart.

• Odysseus characteristics make him an archetypal hero because his character traits was that of a Homeric leader known for his strength, courage, nobility, etc.
