Petrarch employs metaphor to express his ideas of unattainable love by comparing his beloved or Laura to natural phenomenon.

Metaphors are frequently used in Petrarchan sonnets to express his ideas of unattainable love. For instance, the metaphor "In a tremendous storm on an unsecured raft" is also used to describe how he feels in response to her passing which shows that he lost his love.

His blason makes extensive use of metaphor and simile, but the sonnet as a whole is littered with them.

The simple facts that unattainable love gives pain, that time may not heal, and most significantly, that our confidence in God can remain constant as our eyes focus upward rather than toward ourselves or others, may then be revealed by Petrarch's use of metaphors in his sonnets.

Which literary movement began after the early american and colonial period
BARSIC [14]

In the post-war period, Thomas Jefferson's United States Declaration of Independence, his influence on the United States Constitution, his autobiography, the Notes on the State of Virginia, and his many letters solidify his spot as one of the most talented early American writers. The Federalist essays by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay presented a significant historical discussion of American government organization and republican values. Fisher Ames, James Otis, and Patrick Henry are also valued for their political writings and orations.

Much of the early literature of the new nation struggled to find a uniquely American voice in existing literary genre, and this tendency was also reflected in novels. European forms and styles were often transferred to new locales and critics often saw them as inferior.

Eryptian ideas and beliels
Nadya [2.5K]

Egyptian beliefs about future existence are not readily defined because the Egyptians are a very ancient civilization, making it difficult to study their religious documents.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The Egyptians constitute a millenary civilization, with several different types of documents and that developed over time.
  • This meant that the Egyptians had a very wide variety of religious documents.
  • In addition, the Egyptian religion and society was influenced by other societies over time, which changed their beliefs and culture.

This made the study of Egyptian documents difficult and translated into many different languages, which had to adapt and simplify many concepts, which often left the Egyptian beliefs imprecise and poorly defined.
