Which excerpt from The Odyssey demonstrate the importance of hospitality in Greek society? Here is a poor man come, a wanderer,
driven by want to beg his bread, and everyone
in hall gave bits, to cram his bag—only
Antinous threw a stool, and banged his shoulder
“Suppose Athena’s arm is over us, and Zeus
her father’s, must I rack my brains for more?”
“The cruel belly, can you hide its ache?
How many bitter days it brings!”
Odysseus only shook his head, containing
thoughts of bloody work, as he walked on,
then sat, and dropped his loaded bag again
upon the door sill.
