Question

2/5
why does nestor suggest patroclus convince achilles to return to battle?
to challenge hector directly
to retrieve agamemnons armor
to intimidate the trojans and boost achaean morale
to avenge the death of a fellow achaean

Explanation:

In Homer's Iliad, Nestor proposes Patroclus persuade Achilles to rejoin the fight because Achilles' presence and reputation would frighten the Trojan forces, which were gaining the upper hand, and restore the confidence (morale) of the Achaean soldiers. The other options do not align with this specific motivation from the text.

Answer:

To intimidate the Trojans and boost Achaean morale
