Read the following excerpt from the story, "The Royal House of Thebes".




Oedipus of course resigned the throne. Polyneices, the elder son, did the same. The Thebans felt that this was wise because of the terrible position of the family, and they accepted Creon, Jocasta's brother, as the regent. For many years they treated Oedipus with kindness, but at last they decided to expel him from the city. What induced them to do this is not known, but Creon urged it and Oedipus' sons consented to it. The only friends Oedipus had were his daughters. Through all his misfortunes they were faithful to him. When he was driven out of the city Antigone went with him to guide him in his blindness and care for him, and Ismene stayed in Thebes to look out for his interests and keep him informed of whatever happened that touched him.






After he had gone his two sons asserted their right to the throne, and each tried to be made king. Eteocles succeeded although he was the younger, and he expelled his brother from Thebes. Polyneices took refuge in Argos and did all he could to arouse enmity against Thebes. His intention was to collect an army to march against the city.

1. Why are the weapons stored out of reach? From the odyssey

Answers

Answer:

The weapons were stored out of reach so that when Odysseus attacks the suitors, they will not be able to get their hands on any weapon and defend themselves.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative "The Odyssey," tells the story of the protagonist Odysseus and his return back from the Trojan War. Though the war had been over long ago, the journey that Odysseus and his men took to get back to Ithaca involves numerous encounters with both gods and men.

In book XIX, Odysseus had returned to his palace and seen the suitors and the turmoil they have created. So, he ordered his son Telemachus to get things ready so that they will execute his plan to secretly attack them while they're unprepared. He asked him to remove the weapons and armors inside, "Make some excuse when the suitors ask you why you have removed it. Say that you have taken it to be out of the way of the smoke, inasmuch as it is no longer what it was when Ulysses went away, but has become soiled and begrimed with soot. Add to this more particularly that you are afraid Jove may set them on to quarrel over their wine, and that they may do each other some harm which may disgrace both banquet and wooing, for the sight of arms sometimes tempts people to use them". This way, when they attack the suitors, they will be left helpless and not reach for any weapon to defend themselves.

A. Creating a contrast for Negore's supposed cowardice.

Explanation:

When Oona arosed with a 'catlike ease'  after Negore asked if there is no greeting for him, Oona replied by saying "I was thy woman to be, Negore, but thou art a coward; the daughter of old Kinoos mates not with a coward!." This statement by Oona creates a contrast for Negore's supposed cowardice as the statement shows reason why she cannot be wife to a coward since her father was a brave man.
