How do Aeneas’s piety and sense of duty change as the poem unfolds?

English

Ierofanga [76]2 years ago
3 0
From the very beginning of the poem, Aeneas is aware that he has to follow the course of his destiny - and not the destiny he has chosen, but the one that was chosen for him (we might even say: imposed upon him) by the gods. However, even though he knows this, he is utterly unhappy about it and finds it difficult to leave behind everything that is dear to him. He sincerely grieves for his love with Dido, whom he has to leave. But in time, he gets to understand that his cause is a really worthy one.

The most significant shift in his character's development happens in Book 6, when he meets his father Anchises in the underworld. Anchises unravels to his son the future of the empire that he is to build. That is the decisive moment, when Aeneas realizes that all his personal sacrifice isn't for nothing. Hitherto, he had had many doubts and second thoughts about this sacrifice. But from that moment on, he will invest all his mental strength in his leadership, and commit fully and enthusiastically to his grand mission.

Which piece of evidence best reveals how Elijah's words contribute to Joe's death ?
Novay_Z [31]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Which piece of evidence best reveals how Elijah’s words contribute to Joe’s death?  A. “Looka theah, folkses!” cried Elijah Mosley, slapping his leg gleefully. “Theah they  go, big as life an’ brassy as tacks.” (Paragraph 2)  B. “He rides that log down at the saw-mill jus’ like he struts ‘round wid another  man’s wife — jus’ don’t give a kitty.” (Paragraph 5)  C. “Talkin’ like a man, Joe. Course that’s yo’ fambly affairs, but Ah like to see grit in  anybody.” (Paragraph 16)  D. “Aw, Ah doan’t know. You never kin tell. He might turn him up an’ spank him furgettin’ in the way, but Spunk wouldn’t shoot no unarmed man.” (Paragraph 22)

Answer:

D. “Aw, Ah doan’t know. You never kin tell. He might turn him up an’ spank him furgettin’ in the way, but Spunk wouldn’t shoot no unarmed man.” (Paragraph 22)

Explanation:

This question is about "SPUNK".

The paragraph shown above is the best evidence that Elijah's words contributed to Joe's death, even though the biggest conflict Joe has in history is with Spunk who is having an affair with his wife, but Spunk was not the main one responsible for Joe's death, even though they fought.

The girls splashed in the pond with their little white toes. They picked handfuls of daisies. They picked bunches of daffodils.
kodGreya [7K]

In this excerpt, the rhetorical technique that the passage best exemplify is:

A. Parallelism

Parallelism is when there is grammar equilibrium in two or more sentences, we can see such a case in these two sentences: They picked handfuls of daisies. They picked bunches of daffodils. On the one hand, the subject is the same They, and on the other the Tense is also the same.

We find no evidence of exaggeration of any type, nor there is satire or irony.

Reread the arguments on the previous slide about the positive and negative aspects of social media. In a well-constructed paragr
storchak [24]

Answer:

<u>Sample Response: </u>The argument in favor of social media use is the stronger argument. The article claims that students do better in school when they use social media. The author gives anecdotal evidence that students use social media to discuss classwork, then uses empirical evidence to show that grades went up in a study where students used social media. The argument against social media is weak because it lacks specific evidence. The writer uses the rhetorical device of parallelism to list a variety of ill effects of social media use. However, the writer never offers any evidence for these negative effects. This writer uses the bandwagon fallacy by telling the audience that most people who want to do well do not use social media.

I just did the assignment.
