Greek and Latin matter because it helps us with the pronunciation of words and the origin of words. When we know about where these words come from, how they are broken down (with suffixes and prefixes), and how each are pronounced, you better understand not only the word, but the meaning and the logic behind the word. This also aids in reading comprehension. Greek and Latin is key to understanding vocabulary, and a good vocabulary helps you to understand what you are reading.
Curiosity.
Odysseus is a self-assured guy who lives by his courage as well as his wiles. He's an intellectual; and although he is self-disciplined, his curiosity sometimes gets him into a lot of trouble. Odysseus is also willing to pay a price for knowledge. It is this intellectual curiosity that drives him to hear the Sirens' song despite the pain he must endure while being tied up to the mast of his ship. If it weren't for those excruciating straps, he would have been lured to his death.
So what was so enticing about the Sirens' song? They promised gifts of wisdom and knowledge of the future. Who could resist that?

<span>a documentary filmed by an expert on the Black Death is your answer
It is not "</span><span>a book of historical fiction about the Middle Ages", because it is fictionous, and while it does follow history, not all of it is true. Also, Middle Ages encompasses a large amount of events, not just the Black Death.
</span><span>
It is not "</span><span>a medical textbook with a section devoted to modern diseases", because the Black Death happened during the Middle Ages, and is not a modern disease.
</span><span>
It is not "</span><span>a history textbook with a chapter on life in the Middle Ages", because it encompasses all daily life aspects, and may or may not include the years of the Black Death.
hope this helps</span>
