Themes addressed in the epic regarding gender, family, home, justice, fathers and sons, mothers and sons, husbands and wives, xenia, hubris, etc.
Men were masculine while women were passive and obedient. A big theme was reunification of family. This poem has a lot of hospitality, coming home, or making a home where you are. The Odyssey only viewed justice as coming from the gods. Every man should have a son that will revenge for him when he passes. The wife should obey the husband, but there's also many examples of adultery.
