Answer:

Oedipus is motivated by too much pride or hubris. He sees himself as a glorified man because the people in the town considers him a hero and a successor to the throne.

Read the following poem by Emily Dickinson.Hope is the thing with feathers,
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard, and sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I’ve heard it in the chillest land
and on the strangest sea,
Yet, never in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

What is the tone of this poem?

Answers

Answer:

Positive and sensitive.

Explanation:

Emily Dickinson's poem "Hope is the thing with feathers" is a poem where she personifies hope as a "bird' that perches in the soul of an individual. Whatever may be the condition of a person, hope is always there in us, singing "tunes without the words, and never stopping at all". Even during strong gales, hope is there silently giving us confidence and urging us to be hopeful for better things. When things get hard and life is chaotic, hope relentlessly urges us to go on living, giving us "hope" within all the chaos and mayhem.

Emily ends the poem by saying that even during immense times of extremities, hope is there, never asking anything of her. It silently but relentlessly gives her a positive feeling about the days to come. "Hope" unselfishly stayed with her all through the good and bad times.

Answer:

calm, relaxed

Explanation:

nothing in this poem represents anger, sadism, or depression. its simply about a bird. and the words to describe it. giving out a calm and relaxing feeling, hence the tone.

B.
This point of view exposes readers to facts without emotions.

C.
This point of view teaches readers that it is possible to escape from slavery.

D.
This point of view shares the inner and outer struggles of an enslaved man with readers.

Answers

Answer:

"D. This point of' view shares the inner and outer struggles of an enslaved man with readers.

Explanation:

First-person narrative has the potential to deepen the reader's knowledge of the narrator-character, as it shows much about his personality through the way he chooses to narrate the plot's events, and how he describes his feelings, emotions, and his internal and external struggles. His speech gains a status of authenticity, since there is no anonymous narrator mediating the reader's contact with the character, as in the narrative in the third person. The focus of first-person narrative is to influence the reader to interpret the story from the point of view of this character.

On the basis of this, the first-person narration in Douglass's autobiography was intended to share the inner and outer struggles of a man enslaved, so readers would know their deep feelings about this struggle and could identify and be moved in a way more intimate with the story.

Frederick Douglass made himself the most persuasive victim of the evils of slavery and prejudice. He suffered when his master separated his family and had to endure lashes and beatings. Although it was illegal to teach slaves to read and write, Douglass still learned and secretly taught other slaves. After escaping, he began to relentlessly participate in abolitionist gatherings throughout the North and the British Isles for more than two decades. When it became clear that the Civil War was only a bloody milestone in the struggle, he spearheaded protests against prejudice in the North and against states in the South that subverted the newly conquered civil liberties of blacks.

If i am correct it is either or D. I would go with D.  (i read the book, didnt like it much, dont remember much)
