Hello there!

The poem “Talking in their sleep” is a poem about a tree that goes into hibernation.

Every winter a tree loses its leave. Depending on the condition it may or may not look in a bad condition.

This tree feels that someone else feels it no longer has any beauty due to the harsh winter.

It though feels that it can prove the person wrong - in the spring when it is once again beautiful.

Therefore the central idea of the poem may be something like the quote “Don’t judge a book by its cover”. Although the tree may not seem alive at the moment, it will be beautiful once again.

I hope this helps you!

Hello. You did not enter the answer options, but the term "previously perused paperbacks" is an euphemism for the term "softcover books" or "flimsy books".

Answer:

The answer is<em> Ismene represents a coward in comparison to Antigone’s heroine.</em>

Explanation:

Antigone is a character from Greek mythology, inspiration for many plays, books, operas, paintings. She lived in Thebes, Greek city-state, during civil war. Her two brothers, Polynices and Eteocles, fought for the throne on the opposite sides. Since both brothers died in a fight, new ruler of the Thebes, Creon, decided that Eteocles will be declared a hero and buried with all honors while Polynices was declared a traitor of his homeland and was not allowed to be buried. For the ancient Greeks, funeral was very important, it was believed that if not buried, one can not reach the afterlife and spends eternity in Hades (Hell). Antigone couldn't let her own brother be left unburied and devoured by wild animals and she decided to give him proper burial, although it was against the Creon's law and she could be sentenced to death. She showed bravery deciding that her love for brother was greater than fear of sentence, while Ismene, being also Polynices's sister, showed completely opposite actions.
