The hospitality in the epic does as the professor stated play a role
in the hierarchy being maintained. When the suitors encroach upon
Penelope and her son this is in line with the way things are. This is
the reason that Telemakhos has to become a man. Also the fact is that
Odysseus, though his journey is fraught with folly, would not have
survived and even thirved without such.
