Answer:
A. Both narrators describe gazing upon a hideous being.
B. Frankenstein believes his monster to be even more gruesome looking than the creatures Dante faced in hell.
Explanation:
Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" revolves around a young scientist's desire to achieve knowledge beyond human limits, creating a monster. This act made him parallel to a god, capable of giving life to a being.
Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy" focuses on the 'journey' of the writer (supposedly) into the afterworld. The narrative takes us along as Dante embarks on a 'tour' of the three realms of the dead.
In these two excerpts given in the question, we see Victor and Dante commenting on the respective monsters they encountered. While Frankenstein describes his monster as <em>"a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived"</em>, Dante's Minos is full of <em>"ghastly features".</em>
Thus, the correct answers are options A and B.
<em>Huguenots would find a welcome and prosperous trade network along the lengths of </em><em>the Rodano river.</em><em> </em>
The Huguenots were groups of Calvinist Protestants who lived in the area currently shared by France and Switzerland on the banks of the Rhone River, which was the main commercial route between southern and northern Europe. Both trade and ideas flowed rapidly in the reformist era.
In times of the Roman Empire, important civil works were made such as ports, canalizations, bridges, connections between different rivers, etc., to enhance the commercial deployment between the countries of the Mediterranean coasts, the Central European regions such as Switzerland, and those of northern Europe as Germany, the Netherlands and even England crossing the channel of the spot.
The Huguenots were persecuted in France by the State and the Catholic Church and many of them (some 200,000) emigrated to other European countries such as the Netherlands, England and Germany. They also emigrated to the British colonies of the United States as active promoters of American emancipation and pioneers in deploying liberal ideas in the United States. They founded some ephemeral colonies in Florida, but did not participate in the colonization of the Mississippi River because these territories were dominated by the official French power from which they had fled.
