So, basically "Meta"="after" physical is well.. physical
so metaphysical is "after the physical". basically, metaphysics deal with questions that can't be explained...by science anyway. It questions the nature of reality in a philosophical way.
some common questions are: does God exists? Is there a difference between the way things appear to us and the way they really are?
is consciousness limited to the brain?
so hat type of poetry sounds like it would be very abstract, and if all of these poet friends did write poems like that then I believe the answer more than likely is
C.) the poet's fondness for abstract ideas.
Douglass was separated from his Harriet Bailey, his mother, soon after he was born as he tells us through his writings.
- ¨Never having enjoyed, to any considerable extent, her soothing presence, her tender and watchful care, I received the tidings of [my mother’s] death with much the same emotions I should have probably felt at the death of a stranger¨
In Chapter I of the Narrative, Douglass explains that his master separates him from his mother soon after his birth. This separation ensured that Douglass did not develop a family bond toward his mother. Douglass talks about how a slave is “shaped,” beginning at birth. He explains the ways by which slave owners alter social bonds and the natural processes of life in order to transform men into slaves. This process begins at birth. Slave traders first remove a child from his family, and Douglass shows how this destroys the child’s support and sense of a personal history.
In this quotation, Douglass uses adjectives like “soothing” and “tender” to re-create the childhood he would have known if his mother had been present. Douglass often recreates this assertion in his narrative in order to contrast normal stages of childhood development with the quality of development that he knew as a child.
His focus on the family structure and the awful moment of his mother’s death is typical of the conventions of nineteenth-century sentimental narratives. The destruction of family structure would have saddened readers and appeared to be a signal of the larger moral illnesses of the culture. Douglass, like many nineteenth-century authors, shows how social injustice can be expressed through the breakdown of a family structure. Douglass became deeply engaged with the abolitionist movement as both a writer and an orator.
In Oddyseus, the cyclops you can discover is Polyphemus, the child of Poseidon. What deeper meaning is revealed through the Cyclopes' interpretation of the prophecy is ignoring a prophecy leads to punishment by the gods. Epics heroes can have qualities that one would expect only a supernatural being to have.
Answer: I do not understand your question. Claudius is again a weak king and Gertrude is very foolish. They were corrupt and the people around them were corrupt.
Hope this helps! :)
Explanation:
The Victorian Era was known as the period where Queen Victoria ruled England. It lasted 68 years, as Queen Victoria assumed the role in 1837 until 1901. It is the longest reign that a British monarch has had.
This period was known for having a hierarchy based social order. As Queen Victoria wanted to regain some of the lost respect the public had towards the Kingdom, society started to benefit those with "noble titles", which were granted by the Queen to a selected number of individuals. This produced a pronounced form of classism an among British society, as middle-class citizens often lost their jobs to people with a certain relation to those who had honorific titles. It was an era of high expectations, as people often were prejudices towards others due to their background.
