Major Themes: (Emily)
Homeric Similes- Like Aegisthus took advantage of Agamemnon's absence to steal his wife, so has Penelope's suitors exploited Odysseus's uncertain death to engage themselves on his provisions and pursue his grieving wife. Telemachus's mission thus parallels that of Orestes: he must avenge his father by driving out the interlopers who have taken over his father's house. Development and Growth of Telemachus- Even Menelaus commented on how grown-up Telemachus spoke and acted. Disguise- Odysseus was disguised as a beggar. They did not know Telemachus's Identity until after he came in. Hospitality- Menelaus- let Telemachus and Nestor's son in.
