The correct answer is B. The McCarthy Hearings

Explanation:

Arthur Miller was an American writer and essayist who lived in the 20th century (from 1915 to 2005). One of his most popular works is "The Crucible" a playwright in which Arthur Miller focused on the Salem witch trials that occurred in the Massachusetts Bay colony during the 17th century. However, this theme is only used as an allegory of McCarthyism (one story or message is used to represent another).  McCarthyism refers to Senator Joseph McCarthy (from 1940 to 1950)  who promoted political repression that led to multiple accusations of treason and communist with no evidence and fear in the U.S. for Communism. In this way, "The Crucible" is based on McCarthy hearings as he promoted the persecution of alleged communist, similar to the persecution of the Salem trials, which were used as an allegory of the situation promoted by McCarthy or McCarthyism.

2. Now that you have explored the general Romantic traits of Whitman’s and Dickinson’s poems and considered their styles, focus
exis [7]

Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman may have differences in their poetry writing styles; points of view and structure. A good example of it, it’s how Dickenson tends to write longer pieces related to his own life experience, While Whitman contextualized his poetry to his historical context. Nevertheless and undoubtedly both authors share the same recurrence on talking about death in their poems. Each author relates death and how it's related to human beings. For instance, both wrote poems based on the civil war. While Dickenson analyzed death from a more religious point of view, seeing the transcendence of life and good behavior, Whitman relates it to a more human-centered view –e.g. the mother’s poem- where he captivates with seeing the beauty even in the most painful situations.  In brief, both apply this Transcendentalism and influence American literature on appreciating life and human beings.

* please help this is all my points i have left!!!!!*
Harman [31]

1. In the Homer’s ‘The Odyssey’, Odysseus depicts the character epic hero qualities. As in one instance, he blinds the Cyclops Polyphemus by naming himself as ‘nobody’, and save his crew from death, by tricking him smartly. To learn about his fate, odyssey travels to Hades. When he reaches Ithaca, to claim his rightful place he takes upon on all Penelope’s suitors by stringing his famous bow.

2.

Qualities:
•He shows his cunning. He lies to Polyphemus by telling him that his ship is destroyed by Poseidon and disguise himself by naming himself as ‘nobody’. Hence when odyssey blind him and Polyphemus shouts for help “nobody is killing me!” his brother doesn’t come for help thinking he is alone.
•Another instance where odyssey demonstrates his cunning is when he knows that it’s only Polyphemus who a move the boulder from the cave’s entrance he cleverly makes Polyphemus drink wine till he gets to pass out. Later he blinds Polyphemus and when Polyphemus opens the entrance and odyssey and his men escape the cave.

Flaws:
•To make sure that Polyphemus must know about Odyssey and who ruined him, odyssey boasts about himself and tell about how he tricked him. Therefore, this leads Polyphemus to curse Odyssey and this curse leads to the death of his crewmen and makes his voyage to home difficult.

3. The archetype refers to the kind of person who is above all and often leads everyone. Odyssey is an archetype as during the Trojan war he obtained the title of ‘hero’ in other terms possessing god-like powers or traits. Though he was self-centered and often boasted about himself, he took charge of his men and lead his crew through his cunning and wit.
