In this  classical novel, the captain wears a prothesis in his leg made out of whalebone ivory because a white whale that gave the name to the book, destroyed his leg in an earlier incident.

The suffering that Captain Ahab has it's not only physical, it is emotional, not having his leg, means that he has lost part of his manhood. It's a symbol for energy and determination, that he finally one day he will go back and hunt the whale and get even because of that incident.

Which type of evidence does Machiavelli use in the story of Dido to show that a ruler should be cruel in certain circumstances?
castortr0y [4]

Evidence that the author uses to show the cruelty of a ruler can be inferred from the following context of the story:

''And of all princes, it is impossible for the new prince to avoid the imputation of cruelty, owing to new states being full of dangers. Hence Virgil, through the mouth of Dido, excuses the inhumanity of her reign owing to its being new, saying:

"Res dura, et regni novitas me talia cogunt

Moliri, et late fines custode tueri."(*)

Option C is the correct answer.

<h3>What is the evidence?</h3>

Evidence is something that supports the claims being raised by the accused party over the defending party.

The evidence from the passage where the author says that it is impossible for the new kings to ignore the cruelty when there is danger from the new states. This leads to the inhumanity being excused by Virgil in her ruling.

Therefore, the explanation given in part C is the evidence that the author uses to show the cruelty of the new kings.
