The literary device used here is anachronism.

Explanation:

The person here is said to have been 'wobbled' on to the floor.

This is not an action that a human is often portrayed as doing anywhere so it does not really fit human description but shows a form of action that happens to things.

This suggest the situation and how bad the fall actually is.

It also suggests that the situation and the tone of the passage is rather comedic and used in a sense that is strategically that way.

dexar [7]

Answer:

Odysseus revealed only some parts of the danger they'd face because he did not want his men to waver in their courage and to save them from panicking.

This shows his strength and his decision to keep the worries to himself shows him to be a capable and courageous leader.

Explanation:

Homer's epic "The Odyssey" revolves around the decade-long journey of Odysseus and his men after the Trojan War. And throughout the journey, they would encounter gods, monsters, and enemies, some hindering their journey while some helped them overcome obstacles.

In order to get on with their journey, Odysseus and his men had to go through the Sirens and get through with Scylla and Charybdis. Circe had warned Odysseus to take some precautions, like tying him up while blocking the men's ears with wax to stop them from falling prey to the songs of the Sirens. Moreover, she also warned him that they'd have to pass through a strait dominated by the sea monster Scylla and the enormous whirlpool Charybdis.

Odysseus did tell his men about what is coming their way but did not reveal everything. He believes that if his men know everything, then they will be filled with fear and not be courageous enough to get through. By deciding to reveal only some parts of the danger, he saved the men from being discouraged.

And in that decision to keep the most dangerous details to himself, Odysseus shows extreme strength. He decided to keep the worry to himself instead of making everyone worried. This shows what a great leader and warrior he is.

What is are the most notable things about early settler literature?

alex41 [277]

Answer:

The difficulties of establishing in the new environment, the relationship with the natives, religiosity and colonialism are the most notable subjects in the literature of the first colonizers.

Explanation:

Literature is strongly influenced by the historical moment in which it is being established. This includes the literature written by the first colonized in North America, since through their texts, we can perceive a strong religiosity, mainly in relation to Puritanism, as a way to withstand the physical difficulties that the American environment presented to the pioneers. In addition, this literature presents the pillars of colonialism and the controversial relationship between Europeans and Native Americans.
