Whose belief in civil disobedience did the Beats emulate?

GrogVix [38]

This is of course somewhat of a subjective question, but in general most would agree that Beats emulated "D. Ezra Pound" since their tactics were similar.

Gonzalo: I have great comfort from this fellow: methinks he hath no drowning-mark upon him; his complexion is perfect gallows. S

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

(i) The person being referred to in this extract is Boatswain.

Boatswain is a character in Shakespeare's "The Tempest" who appears not more than twice in the play. His job is to run the ship during the tempest. He is a senior crew member, who overseas the deck crew, manages the ship's lines and sails, and the anchors

(II) Gonzalo happens to be is a fictional character in William Shakespeare's Play. A counselor to the King. From the play, it is clear that Boatswain had hurt his pride:

First by ignoring his question about the where about of the king twice.

Second, by speaking to him in a derogatory manner regardless of his position. Botswain had asked him to use his political powers which at that time was useless against the storm to save them or get out of the way. He was practically ordered to get back into his Cabin. See this excerpt:

Boatswain

When the sea is. Hence! What cares these roarers

for the name of king? To cabin: silence! trouble us not.

So, Gonzalo with a lot of hurt but care for his own life retreats into his cabin below the deck as he does so wishes that Boatswain will save the ship so that everyone is saved including himself but moreso that he will have the opportunity to hang him when the ship got to land.

So Gonzalo derives great comfort for two reasons:

because based on his estimation of the situation, the ship will not sink under the administration of Boatswain because he is an expert at what he does. He actually prays to Fate to ensure that he does not sink the ship.
If the ship will not sink, then he (Gonzalo) will have the opportunity to mete out the punishment which he strongly wanted for Boatswain for his insolence and derogatory manners towards him.

See the part where he prays to Fate to ensure that the Boatswain is successful in his enterprise:

"Standfast good Fate, to his hanging! make the rope of his destiny our cable, for our own doth little advantage. If he be not born to be hanged, our case if miserable.

If there was a chance that the ship will sink, that meant that he would have to die

horribly along with Boatswain by drowning
without a chance to redeem his pride.

Cheers!

Sources that present only partial information to prove a point, or that omit crucial information that is contradictory to their

lozanna [386]

It falls under the fallacy of half truths. It is a selective thinking whose main objective is to focus on pieces of evidence that hold to be true to the believers and omits some facts to present an accurate argument.

Read line 111-114 of beowulf

gladu [14]

Answer: A)

Explanation:

Characterization is used as a literary device to describe and highlight all the details and characteristics of the character found in the story. In that way, the writer is introducing the character to the readers and he is making him noticeable.

In these lines, we can see a description of the descendants of Cain and they are coming from confrontation with Grendel. The writer is describing the descendants mentioning the monsters and elves.

Which example uses an in-text citation correctly, according to MLA

iogann1982 [59]

The example that uses proper, according to MLA standards, in-text citation is the following:

D. Nutritionist Soon-yu Kim describes whole foods as the "cornerstone of a healthy diet" (23)

MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation; it requires the author's last name and the page number. If the name appears on the sentence itself, then only the page number should be in parentheses at the end of the sentence (this is the reason why A, which provides redundant information as the last name was already present on the sentence, and C, which places the page number close to the author's name, are incorrect).
