What is the theme of Prometheus

English
1 answer:
zepelin [54]4 years ago

Answer:

Reason vs. Power

Explanation:

One of the great themes of Prometheus Bound is the frustration and helplessness of reason and rightness in the face of sheer power. Aeschylus hammers the theme home by having Prometheus chained by two demonic forces with allegorical names. Violence, appropriately, is mute, and in many productions Violence is played as a kind of beast. Might is a ruthless, pitiless deity, without any will of his own. He is the fist of Zeus: cold, cruel, the institution of tyranny personified. Viewing Prometheus as reason, we see the play as partly the story of reason's tragic limits, and its helplessness in the face of brutal, unthinking force.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

B). Then the rebels will overcome the empire’s troops and take the city.

Explanation:

The sentence that would be the best addition to conclude the paragraph is displayed in option B and i.e. 'Then the rebels will overcome the empire’s troops and take the city' as it appropriately corresponds to the last sentence of the given paragraph that is written in simple future. This is the most perfectly offers an end to the paragraph, both grammatically and comprehensively. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer as the other options are grammatically incorrect. Option A wrongly employs overcame with take that doesn't offer parallelism and at the same not corresponding to the sentence prior to it. Option C and D also carries the similar error of not continuing the time of the previous sentence.
