How did the Cyclops character contradict everything the ancient Greeks thought was important?

English
1 answer:
FromTheMoon [43]2 years ago
3 0
Ancient Greece thought that hard work was to be rewarded, and government was to be organized and respected. The way Odysseus describes the Cyclops shows that they, as a race, just kind of let things happen. Their crops grow unattended, without being cultivated or cared for, and they have no form of organization or government. They deal with their own problems family to family and don't get involved in each others discipline.

 How do the photographs help you understand how Buster Keaton got the nickname “The Great Stoneface”?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The photographs help me understand that Buster Keaton got the nickname “The Great Stoneface" because his facial expressions in the two photographs remained the same. He wasn't smiling or even looking bright and cheerful. Also, he wasn't looking like one who easily smiled or changed his facial expressions.

Explanation:

Buster Keaton is known to be "The Great Stoneface" because of the way he kept his face which looked the same. He seemed like he wasn't the smiling type of person. So, he seemed to have conditioned his facial expression the way it is. Anytime he is seen, he looks the same way.

What is the effect of King comparing freedom movement to the flight of an airplane in paragraphs 10 and 11?
lapo4ka [179]

Martin Luther King, Jr. is such as important character not only in American, but in global society, because thanks to him may, unlike him, could live in a world where social status and, mainly, skin colour were not important. In other words, the impact of his acts influenced thousands of people.

Nevertheless, it is important to state that King was not alone in his fight for equality. So that, when recieving Nobel Prize, King gave a speech in which in a metaphorical way he thanked and recognised the work that other participants of the Freedom Movement had made. In this way, the well operation of an airplaine depends not only on the machine by itself, and neither on the pilot; but there are people on land managing and controlling so many different things that make possible the goal of transporting the plane and people to the destination successful. In that way, the plane can be related to the movement itself and King considered only as a pilot who need many other people working hard to achieve the destination that would be freedom.
