Their purpose was to scare people into submission. The sermons would usually be about burning in hell for sins and describing the torture in detail and people would be scared of this and remain puritan in their belief and remain faithful to the church and to god. The most famous one is "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Jonathan Edwards that is still read by many today.

in the context of the text, how does a person overcome adversity? How does resilience help people overcome difficult circumstanc
madam [21]

Answer and Explanation:

1. In short, the texts claim that people overcome adversity with resilience. However, resilience is difficult to understand. The texts show how the word "resilience" has become fashionable in recent years, but few people really know them, because very few people needed it.

2. Resilience allows people to face reality, realize that they cannot change it, but have positivity. Positivity is very difficult to establish in a time of adversity, but it must be encouraged, as it shows that this moment will pass and that it is necessary to be strong to pass it.

The Hermit Story -
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The idea that has been suggested through using the word 'grace' is that there are moments of grace; unearned and undeserved, around us that we need to observe.

Explanation:

"The Hermit's Story" is a short story written by Rick Bass. The story is about the magical world.

It is evident in most of Rick's story that people found grace in the elements of earth, sky, water, etc.

In "The Hermit's Story" as well, people found grace in elements such as water, animals, etc.

<u>The idea that the author wants to suggest using this word is that there are moments of grace around us, only we need to observe them. The author wants to convey that just like there was a magical world beneath the ice surface, there's is a magical and essential things beneath the surface of the body, that is soul</u>.

In at least 150 words, explain why Borges’s narrative “The Garden of Forking Paths” is often considered a precursor to hypertext
lilavasa [31]
A hypertext is a digital text in which one or more hyperlinks are embedded, a hyperlink is a word, picture, or graphic element in digital media that is connected through a mouse click to another location in a digital document or webpage. Borges uses allusions like a hypertext to further connect his ideas in the story, "Garden of Forking Paths" by implying their connections through time. An Allusion is a reference to other people and events whose images serve as a symbol of a broad concept or theme. The allusions become metaphors for the connections of people on Earth over generations. For example, on the train, a boy reads the Annals of the Roman historian and Senator Tacitus. The Annals provide us with a record of the history of the Roman Empire, but Tacitus never completed his work, and like the missing pages in the document, some of it did not survive over time.
