Which idea is expressed in this excerpt from "Anecdote of the Jar" by Wallace Stevens?

Taking the whole poem into account, I think the correct answer must be C.

The jar is a small, common, impersonal object, but in Stevens' view, it affects the nature, depriving it of its inherent wilderness. Although it is one of a thousand, it still has the power and dominion over nature. Its meaningless existence leaves a negative trail in this world. If the jar was regarded as faceless a person living in a highly commercialized, industrialized world, and the nature as freedom, the parallel would be all the more effective.

Click to read "The Story of Daedalus and Icarus" by Ovid. Then answer the question.
Lelechka [254]

The answer is:

A. Brueghel's painting focuses on the people of the coast rather than Icarus.

In "The Story of Daedalus and Icarus," by Ovid, Daedalus escapes with his son Icarus by making wings out of feathers glued with bees wax. Icarus ignores his father's warning and flies close to the sun, so the bees wax melts and he falls into the sea.

The painting by Brueghel depicts a landscape with a few people working and Icarus plunging in the water in the background. However, it does not include Daedalus, who reaches his destination and survives in Ovid's story.

Answer:

In the opening Prologue of Romeo and Juliet, the Chorus refers to the title characters as “star-crossed lovers,” an allusion to the belief that stars and planets have the power to control events on Earth. This line leads many readers to believe that Romeo and Juliet are inescapably destined to fall in love and equally destined to have that love destroyed. However, though Shakespeare’s play raises the possibility that some impersonal, supernatural force shapes Romeo and Juliet’s lives, by the end of the play it becomes clear that the characters bear more of the responsibility than Fortune does.

Explanation:

This line leads many readers to believe that Romeo and Juliet are inescapably destined to fall in love and equally destined to have that love destroyed. This is the main part of the story.

Something that is symmetrical and something that is asymmetrical
34kurt
Something that is symmetrical could be something like a butterfly, it is the exact same on both sides. Something that would probably be asymmetrical would be a face, most faces are different slightly from one side to another.
