Final answer:

In Homer's Odyssey, the idea of reincarnation is not included in the account of the afterlife.

Correct option is a.

Step-by-step explanation:

The account of the afterlife that does not include the idea of reincarnation is Homer's Odyssey. In Homer's epic poem, the souls of the dead go to Hades, with some exceptional heroes going to the Elysian Fields. However, there is no mention of reincarnation.
