 | | These girls are otherwise said to be among those called the HELIADES 1, who shed the inconsolable tears that hardened into amber when their brother Phaethon 3 died, having fallen from the sky when he drove his father's chariot. | | | But just as good advices are not there to be followed in the first place, the main idea with promises and oaths is not necessarily to fulfil them. | | | And since mortals cannot anticipate what will happen, the day after the evening meal and the oath there was no putting out into the open sea, as they had intended. |

| | The final chapter, "Homer and Athens," ties in the climactic Mnesterophonia, in which the suitors' guilt is confirmed by their ignoring Theoclymeneus' divine vision, itself imagistically evoking the sacrifice on Thrinacia (148). | | | Segal speaks of a "more or less unified" notion of Zeus' justice as a "work in progress" which the hero only comes to understand in the course of the poem; Poseidon is not denied "primitive" aspects, but these are "bracketed" in books 5-12 and represent the blocking "other" to Zeus' emergent order. | | | Zeus' destruction of the crew after Thrinacia thus perfectly exemplifies his announced theodicy, but his assent to Poseidon's savage demand for revenge on the Phaeacians some 200 lines later might raise questions (123). |
