English
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

In this excerpt, Wheatley uses hyperbole to show <u>the success she wishes for the king.</u>

Explanation:

Hyperbole is the use of exaggerated words to describe something. It is mainy significant by people who lay too much emphasis on something, making it seem out-of-the-world and whose meaning cannot be literally taken into account.

Phillis Wheatley's poem "To the King's Most Excellent Majesty" is a poem that is a form of praise and appreciation for King George. The poem, though short, presents the king in a graceful manner. Through the use of the words as given in the first stanza of the poem, she uses hyperbole to express her wish that the king be blessed and successful.

Thus, the correct answer is the last option.

In what ways does van gogh make the stars accessible
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Vincent Van Gogh was the most well-known post-impressionist artist born on March 30, 1853, in Groot-Zundert. For him, colors were the symbol of expression. He was a missionary at his young age,  who was highly emotional and lacked self-confidence.

Starry Night is one of the famous painting by Van Gogh. Historians say that Van Gogh painted Starry Night when he was in mental hospital. Some theologians try to interpret his Starry Night in religious terms as Van Gogh was also religious. It is said that he painted this picture having a picture of Genesis 37:9 in mind in which Biblical Character Joseph sees a dream,

"Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, saying, "Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me."

Van Gogh in his painting also paints Eleven stars and the sun and the moon. With this interpretation in my mind Van Gogh made stars accessible in a way that just like Joseph's dream came true at the end of Genesis, one's dreams can also become true if we continue to believe in it despite the situation.
