Which aspect of the following poem might imagists most admire?
sasho [114]
Imagists believed that poems should have "no ideas but in things." In other words, they would described powerful images, and instead of explaining what those images meant, they would let the reader decide what the meaning or value of those images might be. 

Imagists were especially fond of inviting the reader to recognize how very different sorts of images can actually be really similar. Ezra Pound famously did this with his short poem "In a Station of the Metro," which associates "faces in the crowd" with "petals on a wet, black bough."

The poem in your question does something very similar by associating the cat's footprints in the snow with the blossoming flowers of a plum tree. The writer wants you to recognize the odd visual similarity of the footprints and the flowers, ideally to show how there's a kind of cosmic connectedness in the world by (because two very different things end up being really similar).

That's why I think your best answer is A.

Explain how Wilder's theme in Our Town encompasses universal man.
lesantik [10]

Again and again the universality of human experience is stressed within the play. The Stage Manager himself is more than just a chorus; he is a universal figure outside of time and space because he can talk to the audience, the characters in the play, and even the dead in the cemetery. The storyline in the play has a very large universality. When people read or watch Our Town, they'll realize that this play could have happened anywhere, in any time, to any one of us.

But on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!' My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after
Goryan [66]

From the above excerpt, it can be learned about the ancient Greeks that:

  They believed the gluttony and disobedience are negative traits.

They believed that the gods punish people for acting badly.

They believed in the importance of strength in battle.

Odysseus tells about his men who ate the sheep and drank the wine until their stomach was full. After they were full the Cicones' army attacked them which was a consequence of the butcher nature of his men. Greeks had the idea that the punishment for gluttony and disobedience is sure to come. They believed that one should be brave and fearless while fighting in a battle. For them, the God was omniscient who rewarded or punished people of their dead.
