In this excerpt from Book 12 of the Odyssey, Circe advises Ulysses how to get past the Sirens unharmed. Which theme is depicted

in the excerpt?
Next, where the Sirens dwells, you plough the seas;
Their song is death, and makes destruction please.
Unblest the man, whom music wins to stay
Nigh the cursed shore and listen to the lay.
No more that wretch shall view the joys of life
His blooming offspring, or his beauteous wife!
In verdant meads they sport; and wide around
Lie human bones that whiten all the ground:
The ground polluted floats with human gore,
And human carnage taints the dreadful shore
Fly swift the dangerous coast: let every ear
Be stopp'd against the song! 'tis death to hear!
Firm to the mast with chains thyself be bound,
Nor trust thy virtue to the enchanting sound.
If, mad with transport, freedom thou demand,
Be every fetter strain'd, and added band to band.

A.
loyalty
B.
overindulgence
C.
self-restraint
D.
leadership

Read the following passage from Act I, scene ii of The Tempest, in which Prospero explains to Miranda how Antonio usurped him.
Iteru [2.4K]

"The Tempest" is considered a revenge tragedy. The usurpation of Prospero's dukedom from Antonio, his own beloved brother, is an indication of his distemper. Words that can create a tone of reproach and melancholy for the past are: "evil nature", falsehood", "perfidious" which are attributed to the dishonest brother. Miranda appears to live in a dream place where corruption and malevolence do not exist. However, Prospero's negative attitue towards Antonio expresses that there is evil in human nature and it can even come from close acquaintances and family.
