What opposing beliefs do Antigone and Creon represent in Sophocles’s Antigone?
Mashutka [201]
Creon is a tyrant. He is the antagonist in the play. He displays cool reason instead of being hot-tempered and emotional. As a result, he chooses the rational laws of man and rejects the irrational laws of the gods. 
<span>Antigone, on the other hand, is a heroine who understands the importance of duty towards her family. Creon instituted a law that forbade anyone to bury her brother, Polyneices.  Antigone believed that burying her brother was more important that following the laws of the state.</span>

The title Twelfth Night is a reference to the Feast of the Epiphany, celebrated twelve days after Christmas. Explain in a short
Licemer1 [7]

In "Twelfth Night" many things get twisted. For example, Two twins are seperated due to a crashed ship. Viola, one of the twins, is then forced to dress as a man, taking on the name Cesario.
While working at a palace, Viola falls in love with a young duke. Everything seems to be fine, except the young duke is head over heels for a girl named Olivia. However, Olivia is madly in love with Viola, who is pretending to be Cesario.
Viola then has to continue to be Cesario while caught in an awkward love triangle. She struggles having to balance Olivia's advances while she swoons over the duke and acts as his page. She also has to deal with the sorrow of her long lost twin, sebastian.

P.S. This should be a good starter! Hope u like! Havent read that in a year so it may ne off! I deserved more points than that.

<span>B. Why does the pastor agree to help Stanton with her studies?

This is the option that would help the most to understand the pastor. Understanding his motives would help the reader learn about who he is. 

A- might be interesting and might be an important detail but not vital here.
C. Being taught Greek is certainly not the main idea here
D. There is no evidence, at least in this passage, that the pastor's childhood experiences lead to his helping Stanton.

Hope this helps.</span>

Which BEST analyzes how Shaw draws upon the work of the Roman poet, Ovid? Consider only the excerpts. A) Like Ovid's main charac
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Hi! I am afraid that your question is incomplete because you forgot to mention which book are you talking about. But, I did a little research on the Internet and I think I am able to answer it correctly.

From the options given, the one that best analyzes how Shaw draws upon the work of the Roman poet, Ovid, is A: Like Ovid's main character, <em>Shaw's main character portrays a level of disdain for women.</em>

Explanation:

First, let's say that we are talking about <em>Pygmalion</em>, by George Bernard Shaw, a play published in 1913. <em>Pygmalion</em> derives its name from the famous story in Ovid's <em>Metamorphoses</em>, in which Pygmalion feels disgusted by the loose and shameful lives of the women of his era. Due to this feeling, he decides to live alone and unmarried.

In this case, like Pygmalion (the main character from <em>Metamorphoses</em>), <u>the main character feels disgusted by them -women-, that is why the correct answer is A. </u>
