CommonLit: The Transformation of Arachne into a Spider

English
1 answer:
BabaBlast [244]2 years ago
7 0

While Pallas weaves a picture that is flattering to the gods, Arachne weaves an image that shows that god's flaws, which leads to her death and transformation.

<h3>The imagery in the myth of Arachne</h3>

Arachne is a mortal woman whereas Pallas Athena is a goddess. Both have amazing weaving skills and can weave incredible images into their word. Let's analyze the imagery they weave and their meaning in the myth.

Arachne weaves an image that shows the gods' flaws, in special the times when they took human form to quench their sensual desires. On the other hand, Pallas weaves an image that shows how mighty the gods are, and how humans can be ungrateful and undeserving. Her tapestry is flattering to the gods.

After weaving, Arachne dies and is transformed into a spider by Pallas. Her transformation, along with the imagery described above, contributes to the myth's meaning that mortals and gods are not equals.

Which lines in this excerpt from "Song of Myself” by Walt Whitman indicate that all human beings are equal in the poet’s eyes?
klasskru [66]
<span>I believe the correct answer is B. And I say it is as great to be a woman as to be a man. This line shows us that Whitman thinks of men and women the same - in his eyes, it is equally good to be either a woman or a man, he doesn't care about the gender of a person, what he cares about are their inner qualities. </span>

What is Tom's "compensation" for the "trial" of having his tooth pulled? What does this
algol13

Answer: Tom was compensated for his loss of a tooth by finding an entirely new way to spit.  

But all trials bring their compensations. As Tom wended to school after breakfast, he was the envy of every boy he met because the gap in his upper row of teeth enabled him to expectorate in a new and admirable way.
