Which of the following are not directly Odysseus's fault? Select all that apply.1. Incurring Poseidon's Wrath
2. Zeus destroying the ship for Helios
3. Man being devoured Polyphemus' cave
4. Unraveling Aeolus' Bag of Winds
5. Scylla devouring six crew members

Answers

Answer:

3. Man being devoured Polyphemus' cave.

5. Scylla devouring six crew members.

Explanation:

These tragic events that take place in The Odyssey are not directly the fault of Odysseus. Odysseus could not have done anything to prevent the actions of Polyphemus or of Scylla. However, the other examples describe actions that could have been prevented by Odysseus. Most of these were consequences of the character's hubris, or extreme arrogance and pride.
