Answer: C. it emphasizes the length of Gilgamesh and Enkidu's journey

Explanation:

Gilgamesh: A New English Version is a book about Gilgamesh, written by Stephen Mitchell. The purpose of this version is to make the oldest epic poem accessible. The poem tells a story of Gilgamesh and his journey of self-discovery.

Enkidu is a friend of Gilgamesh. The Gods create him to help Gilgamesh control his arrogance. The two of them fight against the evil together and thus become very close. The repetition of this excerpt emphasizes the length of their journey - they stopped to eat after having passed four hundred miles, and pitched their camp at thousand miles.

Which feature most helps indicate to the reader that this modern translation was originally an old English poem ?
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The feature that most helps indicate to the reader that this modern translation was originally an Old English poem is alliteration

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the reference text, here is the text:

Read the passage from "A Shield."

A lonely warrior,I am wounded with iron,

Scarred with sword-points,sated with battle-play,

Weary of weapons.I have witnessed much fighting,

Much stubborn strife.

First of all, we need to take in consideration that alliteration is the principal literary device Old English poetry to bind the words, this lines have several examples of this technique such as "wounded with" or "stubborn strife", the other options are not as representative of old English poetry as this literary device.
