1Who intervenes to help Odysseus?Athena. She brings up Odysseus at the council of the gods and Zeus agrees to release him.
2How long has Odysseus been absent from his home of Ithaca?20 years. Ten years at war in Troy and Ten years trying to get home.
3Why does Athena go to Ithaca?Athena goes to Telemachus in the disguise of a family friend (Mentes). She does this to provoke Telemachus into taking a stand against the unruly suitors, who've been depleting the estate's resources.
4What is xenia?Xenia is a Greek word which can be most closely translated to hospitality. Zeus is the god of xenia, thus to disrespect the values of xenia would be to disrespect the gods.
5At the feast how does Telemachus show he was matured?He calls out Penelope (his mother) for crying over a song about the Trojan War, which was being sung by a bard. He'd never done this before speaking to Athena.
6Why is there so many suitors on the estate?They believe that Odysseus is dead; they're seeking (seemingly) widowed Penelope's hand in marriage.
