Read the excerpt from The Odyssey again. In the next land we found were Cyclopes,
giants, louts, without a law to bless them.
In ignorance leaving the fruitage of the earth in mystery
to the immortal gods, they neither plow
nor sow by hand, nor till the ground, though grain-
wild wheat and barley-grows untended, and
wine-grapes, in clusters, ripen in heaven's rain.
Cyclopes have no muster and no meeting,
no consultation or old tribal ways,
but each one dwells in his own mountain cave
dealing out rough justice to wife and child,
indifferent to what the others do.
We have learned that Epic Poetry makes commentary on society. What conclusions may be drawn
about Greek values from this passage?
O the Greeks, unlike the Cyclops, value meeting together
O the Greeks shun meetings and consultation
the Greeks, unlike Cyclops, live alone in caves
O the Cyclops have taught the Greeks the value of society
