The purpose of contrapasso is to create intense punishments that contrast the sin that created them and this is developed into the creation of the disorder and chaos that sets in hell.

<h3>How does Dante do this?</h3>
  • He puts the contrapasso as a kind of karma.
  • He puts the contrapasso to highlight the disharmony of hell.

The contrapasso is used by Dante to show how the punishments of hell are created according to the sin that the individual created during his lifetime.

In this way, the contrapasso establishes punishments that are the opposite of the effect of sin. An example of this is seen when Dante meets a man who proved a political coup, causing a country's rulers to be beheaded. According to the contrapasso, this man's punishment is to have his head dislocated from his body and to walk holding it for eternity.

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

हाँ, आज के समाज में वृद्धाश्रम की आवश्यकता है। यह कई कारणों से है। एक कारण यह है कि बड़े हो चुके बच्चे कभी-कभी अपने बूढ़े माता-पिता को प्रताड़ित करते हैं। उन्हें लगता है कि वे बड़े हो गए हैं और उन्हें अब उनकी आवश्यकता नहीं है। उन्हें भी पीटा और घरों से बाहर निकाल दिया।

इसलिए उनके पास कोई जगह नहीं है। वृद्धाश्रम एकमात्र विकल्प है जो उनके पास है। इसलिए आज के समाज में वृद्धाश्रम की आवश्यकता है।

Hope this helps
