Answer:

The culture in "Black Ships Before Troy" caused a hero to be seen as a traitor, while in "Heart of a Samurai" the culture almost prevented a hero from appearing.

Explanation:

"Black Ships Before Troy" presents a people with a culture very based on religion, where they believed that all the events that happened were due to the action of the gods. Good events were because the gods were happy, while bad events were caused by the wrath of the gods. In this case, when a hero tried to stop the horse sent to Troy and ended up dying before completing his mission, he was seen as a traitor who was rebuked by the gods.

In contrast, "Heart of a Samurai" shows how a boy who dreamed of being a samurai was prevented because his family was made up of fishermen and the culture said that young people should follow their parents' tragedy.

Otrada [13]

The poem is about the winter landscape and the arrival of spring.

Explanation:

  • The speaker stops by a landscape during winter. The speaker provides descriptions of "broad muddy fields browning with dried weeds." The repetition of the color brown continues and the speaker comments on "dead brown leaves" hanging from the trees.
  • The poet uses noun phrases in the poem. leaves are “dead” and the vines “leafless.”
  • The poet uses personification and spring is personified as "sluggish" and "dazed". He says the spring enters like a foreiger and says how the landscape changes. The environment is described as a "naked" newborn fresh from the womb arriving into a confusing world.
