Which excerpt from the odyssey best shows that the ancient greeks greatly valued the idea of home? my home is on the peaked sea-mark of ithaca under mount neion's wind-blown robe of leaves, in sight of other islands—dulichium, same, wooded zacynthus—ithaca being most lofty in that coastal sea, and this new grief we bore with us to sea: our precious lives we had, but not our friends. no ship made sail next day until some shipmate had raised a cry, three times, for each poor ghost unfleshed by the cicones on that field. they fell in, soon enough, with lotus-eaters, who showed no will to do us harm, only offering the sweet lotus to our friends— but those who ate this honeyed plant, the lotus, never cared to report, nor to return: i drove them, all three wailing, to the ships, tied them down under their rowing benches, and called the rest: ‘all hands aboard; come, clear the beach and no one taste the lotus, or you lose your hope of home.’which excerpt from the odyssey best shows that the ancient greeks greatly valued the idea of home? -my home is on the peaked sea-mark of ithaca under mount neion's wind-blown robe of leaves, in sight of other islands—dulichium, same, wooded zacynthus—ithaca being most lofty in that coastal sea, -and this new grief we bore with us to sea: our precious lives we had, but not our friends. no ship made sail next day until some shipmate had raised a cry, three times, for each poor ghost unfleshed by the cicones on that field. -they fell in, soon enough, with lotus-eaters, who showed no will to do us harm, only offering the sweet lotus to our friends— but those who ate this honeyed plant, the lotus, never cared to report, nor to return: -i drove them, all three wailing, to the ships, tied them down under their rowing benches, and called the rest: ‘all hands aboard; come, clear the beach and no one taste the lotus, or you lose your hope of home.’

Read this excerpt from "the light of gandhi's lamp" by hilary kromberg inglis, in which she describes driving to the police station where her sister is being detained. to avoid looking at the blackened windows at the top of the building and thinking about the history of who had died or been tortured there, i always looked instead at the little chinese restaurant on the opposite side of the road. how does this passage affect the text? it conveys, with great subtlety, the conflict she felt over having a sister who would break the law and end up in the custody of the police. it conveys, without any implied moral judgment, that those who fought against apartheid considered themselves to be soldiers in a just war. it conveys, with an extended metaphor, the idea that being detained by the police in this society was regarded as a badge of honor. it conveys, with direct language, the view held by many anti-apartheid activists that the police often acted in brutal and unlawful ways.
