I believe the correct answer is hyperbole.
Hyperbole is a rhetorical figure of speech which show some kind of exaggeration - in this particular example, the hyperbole is found in the words 'an hundred years.' This is so because the poet won't really spend a hundred years to praise the woman's eyes, but is rather exaggerating a bit.

What phrase points to Grendel's evil nature - list 2? (Use exact text<br><br> evidence)
Dimas [21]

Answer:

1.<em> The kindred of Cain crushed with his vengeance;</em>

2<em>The monster of evil, Greedy and cruel tarried but little,</em>.

Explanation:

The poem Beowulf is about a dangerous creature named Grendel who terrorized King Hrothgar of the Dane Kingdom. He would intercept the banquets held by the King and then slaughter anyone he laid his hands on, even eating them.

He was described as a descendant of Cain probably because of his vengeful hatred which made him take people's lives. The evidence is in this text from the poem:

<em> </em><em>The kindred of Cain crushed with his vengeance;</em>

<em />

He was also described as a monster because of the harm he perpetuated and his fearful physical features. The evidence is in this text:

<em>The monster of evil, Greedy and cruel tarried but little,</em>

He was later conquered by Beowulf who left his kingdom to come and defeat him.

Which development during the late Middle Ages laid the foundations for capitalism in Europe?
Natali5045456 [20]
I think the Mercantilism had been one of the major influences of modern capitalism. Although it was not as considered as part of capitalism, it paved the way to trade, banking, finance, accountancy, and other goods and services offered during this era. It was only then when Karl Marx and Adam Smith who had defined the word capitalism through their works such as Marxism and Economic Liberalism. In this, people were able to understand the idea of public and private properties. It also paved the way to social roles of people living in a certain society.
