The Iliad is about the story of the Trojan War. A fleet of Greeks soldiers had gone to Troy to take back their queen, Helen. Helen is the wife of Agamemnon. Agamemnon is known to be one of the greatest king in this era. He had gathered all the brilliant heroes to help him get his wife back from Paris, the brother of Hector, the heir of the throne of Troy.

In the end, the Greeks were able to win against the Trojan warriors by using a wooden Trojan horse. The Trojans were tricked into believing that the Greeks had fled but they did not know that the Greek soldiers had hid inside the Trojan horse. With this, the Greeks were able to take Troy by surprise.

What is one reason Postman believes television is a myth in current culture?
wariber [46]

Answer:

B. Because viewers do not doubt the reality of what they see on TV  

Explanation:

Postman then cites French literary theorist Roland Barthes, arguing that “television has achieved the status of ‘myth’”. What does “myth” mean to Barthes? As Postman explains: “a myth is a way of thinking so deeply embedded in our consciousness that it is invisible”. Here we might pause and review our discussion on semiotics, recalling Levi-Strauss as well as de Saussure.

Myth is language. Images are a type of language. Consequently, when we see a representation of Rosie the Riveter, what comes to mind are a number of ideas, including everything from American determination as reflected by its citizens during World War II to the ideals and concepts espoused by feminist theory. If, as Postman states, television is myth, then what he is arguing for is the idea that television by its very nature and by what it is capable of conveys a complex series of ideas that is already deeply embedded within our subconscious. Or, as Postman more succinctly puts it: We rarely talk about television, only about what is on television—that is, about its content”.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Even though Tina told her to skip it, Lexie had a nagging feeling in her gut that if she missed her brother's spelling bee, he would be extremely disappointed in her as well as her parents. After a half an hour of going through the list of pros and cons she had written, she called Tina and told her that although she truly did want to go to the show with them, she thought that her family should always come before friends. Tina completely understood and when Jess heard the news, she was disappointed but came to terms with Lexie's decision. As soon as Lexie arrived at the spelling bee competition, her brother's face lit up with pure happiness and joy when he noticed that Lexie was there with their parents. <em>This was the right decision.</em> Lexie thought while she cheered on her brother. At the end of the championship, her brother won and they all went out to celebrate.
