<span>Well, one aspect of myths that cannot be denied is that they are ubiquitous across all countries and cultures. Every society has its own form of myths, and interestingly, often these different myths are re-tellings of central archetypal stories that are changed slightly to fit different cultures and experience.</span>

The Greeks were the ones who mostly made up the myths and legends like the Greek gods then the Romans adapted their myths and changed them into their own but the answer is they did not know what to think of the world around them leaving them with the option of them making stories up to explain these things to themselves and their children

Look again at the last sentence of the excerpt. In your own words, explain briefly what you think this sentence means
irina1246 [14]

"A hospital alone shows what war is."

This sentence lets the reader be witness of the war cruelty and its consequences regarding human casualties. While being at hospitals you become aware of the war atrocities. It helps us to reflect that any war leads societies to suffering from death and destruction. No matter what the victims' race, sex, origin or religion are, what should be really important is that human beings are being devastated for those acts of cruelty, despotism and barbarism.

Analyze the following passage from Daisy Miller and write an essay explaining in at least 750 words how this passage illuminates
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The contrast between life and death becomes prominent towards the end of the story. This story ending is not a very happy ending but a realistic one. “ 'She gave me a message: she told me to tell you. She told me to tell you that she never was engaged to that handsome Italian. I am sure I am very glad; Mr. Giovanelli hasn't been near us since she was taken ill. I thought he was so much of a gentleman; but I don't call that very polite!’ ” (James 448). This is very sad to hear if you are in Winterbourne’s position. He really loved her and she loved him but she was playing with his heart. Also, the fact that Mr. Giovanelli did not come around anymore shows his intentions were not the same as Winterbourne’s. Love and death is a sensitive subject that shows throughout the story and never fails to add a realness and an emotional standpoint to a story. These contrasts are what makes the story interesting and keep the readers on the edge of their seats. If these contrasts were solved or there were no conflicts would the story be as good? The story would possibly be completely different. If Daisy were not as spontaneous and flirtatious it would be safe to say her and Winterbourne could have had a life together. If American and European cultures were not as opposing would their even be any conflicts to begin with? These questions arise as contrasts are thought of as ideas are contrasted.

What are possible purposes of Stowe’s use of dialect? Select all that apply.
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

A.) to endear certain characters to us.

D.) to show characters’ educational levels.

Stowe's use of dialogue enriches the setting of the story in various ways. First of all, it makes the characters more realistic and endears certain characters to us. By representing their speech as it most likely sounded in real life, we feel like we get to know the characters better. This makes us care about them more deeply. Stowe also uses dialect in order to show the educational levels of the characters, as "standard" English is most likely to be used by characters who are literate and have received some education.
