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.

In this excerpt form act I scene I of Shakespeare’s Richard III what two purposes does Richard soliloquy appear to serve?
Veronika [31]

The first purpose that Richard's soliloquy appears to serve is to reveal the motivations and personality of the character - we can see that he hates himself because he was basically a hunchback, so he was pretty self-conscious about it. He also reveals in the first scene what he intends to do throughout the play. 

As for the second purpose, I'd choose the answer - it informs the audience about the background of the plot, as it gives us reasons why Richard decided to do what he did.
