The man who doesn't belong in a community is probably the man to pay attention to. The old idea of the stranger is still very strong. That's definitely a Greek idea - we may not honour him anymore - we don't - because we didn't inherit that part of the culture, unfortunately. But we certainly know who he is, and the stranger's fearsome. He's the man to talk to. He's the man who knows where he's come from.
