Of Homer’s two epic poems, the Odyssey has always been more popular than the Iliad, perhaps because it includes more features of mythology that are accessible to readers. Its subject (to use Maynard Mack’ s categories) is "life-as- spectacle," for readers, diverted by its various incidents, observe its hero Odysseus primarily from without; the tragic Iliad, however, presents "life-as-experience," readers are asked to identify with the mind of Achilles, whose motivations render him a not particularly likable hero. In addition, the Iliad, more than the Odyssey, suggests the complexity of the gods’ involvement in human actions, and to the extent that modern readers find this complexity a needless complication, the Iliad is less satisfying than the Odyssey, with its simpler scheme of divine justice. Finally, since the Iliad presents a historically verifiable action. Troy’s siege, the poem raises historical questions that are absent from the Odyssey’ s blithely imaginative world. [br] The author suggests that the variety of incidents in the Odyssey is likely to deter the reader from ______.
选项
A、concentrating on the poem’ s mythological features
B、concentrating on the psychological states of the poem’ s central character
C、accepting the explanations that have been offered for the poem’ s popularity
D、accepting the poem’ s scheme of divine justice
答案
B
解析
作者认为Odyssey的主题是把生活当作一连串事件变化所产生的景象。因此读者是由外部观察生活,而不是从 Achilles的内心来体验生活。
