Read this dialogue spoken by lord capulet in act i, scene v of romeo and juliet.

you are welcome, gentlemen! come, musicians, play.
a hall! a hall! give room, and foot it, girls. [music plays, and they dance.]
more light, ye knaves! and turn the tables up,
and quench the fire, the room has grown too hot

based on these lines, which conclusion can be drawn about lord capulet?

he is concerned about the cost of the party.
he is an aged and unhealthy gentleman.
he is a man who does not enjoy entertaining.
he is a considerate and generous host.

Answer is: He is a considerate and generous host.

In Romeo and Juliet, Capulet, juliet´s father, is a wealthy man who doesn´t care about the cost of parties, but rather likes being a good host to keep his good image in society.

hospitality is mentioned many times in odysseus. it is known as xenia in the poem. one notable example is.

here is a poor man come, a wanderer,

driven by want to beg his bread, and everyone

in hall gave bits, to cram his bag—only

antinous threw a stool, and banged his shoulder

the lines show odysseus disguised as a beggar and shares his bread with another beggar in a weird way because he had to defeat him in order to eat. however, odysseus does not kill the old man and even shows his hospitality.

explanation:

have a great day!
