Answer:

C). To mock him as weak.

Explanation:

The purpose behind singing about King George III as the 'island queen' in 'Revolutionary Tea' is that the poet is willing 'to mock at his cruelty of putting 'three-penny' tax on the daily use items like 'tea' despite being rich and powerful('full of gold'). The poet is ridiculing the hypocrisy and brutality of the king through the image of the island queen who forces 'her own daughter'(the citizens) to pay the tax and orders her to 'bring home the tax.' Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

According to Kant, one barrier to enlightenment is _____.
AVprozaik [17]

The answer is C: most societies do not allow the level of freedom necessary to achieve enlightenment.

Kant argues in the brief but extremely important essay, <em>What is Enlightenment?, </em>that society, before the age of Enlightenment, which Kant precisely defines in this essay, has behaved like a minor in as much as a child cannot think for himself but rather is given the guidelines for his behavior. Kant then claims that it is time for society, and everyone in it, to become an adult and dare think for one´s self, imposing the guidelines for thought and action based on one´s own transcendental discovery of the limits of thought, what can be thought, and what that, in practical terms, entails for every individual´s freedom. This moment in society could not have been reached without the achievements gained through the Enlightenment that provide the necessary and qualified freedom that society as a whole lacked before it.
