What can you understand about Greek cultural values based on the portrayal and characterization of Polyphemus? What is being said people who behave like the cyclops?

Answer and Explanation:

The representation and characterization of Polyphemus features a monster that lives in caves. This was very common in Greek culture, to believe that monstrous and dangerous creatures were hidden in antiquity, in the seas and in caves, as they would be fought if they lived in the midst of civilization. As a monstrous Greek creature, Polyphemus is ferocious, bloodthirsty and strong, acting violently against human beings.

This shows that the Greek people, even fearing and recognizing their disadvantages in relation to monsters, believed that wisdom had reasoning as an advantage that would allow them to survive.

the answer is:  

he is voicing feelings shared by all humans regardless of race.

in paul laurence dunbar's poem "we wear the mask," he replicates the words mask and we to emphasize how people in general -not just black americans- hide their true feelings. he suggests the masks cover people's faces and eyes, which are the main parts that display their emotions. he also thinks people's pain conceal behind those masks, so that they cannot see reality and nobody is able to see one another's sorrow.
