<span>1) In 'Inferno' as well as in the rest of 'Divine Comedy', Dante included a lot of elements from Bible and 'The Aeneid' by Vergil. Due to the lots of biblical elements this story can be defined as Biblical fiction and the depiction and meaning of Hell is a direct proof of this fact. Dante made a crossover of biblical and Vergilic elements describing his own personality in both allusional sacred way. </span>

2) Dante included such allusions because he wanted to represent the perception of human evil in its categorization into different realms. He categorized sins and described them gradually by their level of complexity showing that people tend to measure everything even sins that can lead them to the journey to the Hell.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Yes. She is guilty of patchwork plagiarism.

Explanation:

According to the text in the question, Sara has used large sections of three different sources by cutting and pasting them. She does not cite the sources and does not make an effort to use her own words or to use only a couple of lines from each source. When someone copies large portions of two or more sources and presents the result as their own work, we have a case of patchwork plagiarism. Therefore, Sara is guilty of that kind of plagiarism.

Vladimir [108]
The stylistic element used in the passage is incongruity. It is a form of satire or humor. Incongruity is used in an unsuitable time. For example, If a man were in a court room and belched loudly while receiving his sentence, that would be a use of incongruity. Another example would be if at a royal wedding the groom's pants fell down in the middle of the ceremony.
