Describe how the novel Frankenstein combines general romantic characteristics and traits specific to the gothic novel. Support y
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Frankenstein contains elements of both gothic and romantic literature. Mary Shelley brings out the romantic’s love of nature in the story. Both Frankenstein and the creature explicitly credit nature with giving them joy and lessening their sorrow several times. Victor commits a great sin by trying to go against nature’s laws. Walton is shown to be at fault for his desire to explore the arctic. Mourning the loss of nature to industrialization in the mid-eighteenth century was a romantic trait.

Romantic themes of education and human potential can be found in the scenes with the De Lacey family.

The reanimation of a dead body and descriptions of graveyards and corpses are all gothic conventions designed to create horror or terror in the reader. Other gothic conventions used in Frankenstein are murder, madness, and the suppression of women

After arriving at the cave what do Odysseus men ask him to let them do plssss help. If you know this one what does Odysseus make
masya89 [10]

Answer:

After arriving at the cave, Odysseus's men ask him to let them steal some cheese and sheep.

Explanation:

<em>"When they saw all this, </em><em>my men begged me to let them first steal some cheeses, and make off with them to the ship; they would then return, drive down the lambs</em><em> and kids, put them on board and sail away with them."</em>

The lines above are spoken by Odysseus himself. The hero and main character of Homer's "The Odyssey" is talking of the time when he and his men arrived at the cave belonging to Polyphemus, a one-eyed giant.

Odysseus is on his way home after the war in Troy. However, having been arrogant and having defied the gods, Odysseus is punished. The journey home takes years and he and his men suffer a great deal. <u>In this particular episode, the Cyclops Polyphemus will even kill some of them for entering his cave. Odysseus later regrets no having listened to his men. All they asked him to let them do upon entering the cave was steel some of giant's cheese and sheep, and then leave. Since Odysseus wouldn't let them, they were trapped by the Cyclops.</u>

Note: In the excerpt, the word "kids" refers to the baby sheep.

Discuss any three reason why cases of sexual abuse and gender-based violence are not reported
kodGreya [7K]
There are many reasons why these would not be reported. Although sometimes the reason may be: 
1.) When the sexual abuse (SA) can be inflicted by a family member or close family friend, this can lead to 2.) the victim being scared to tell adults or the authorities. Although sometimes, the reason the victim is scared (if it's a child) to report it because the parent is the inflictor. 
3.) Often times, when SA is inflicted by a sibling, parent, or family friend, the victim is afraid to report it because they may believe it's their fault it's happening to them (they're fault they're sexually abused) or they may feel weird because of it. 
4.) When Gender-based violence (GBV) occurs, it's usually between children (teens mostly) at school or outside of safe places such as home. The reason this is not reported because many times adults/authorities (such as teachers) don't take it seriously and the kids feel neglected because of this. This then leads to the child (when they're affected by the GBV in the future,) believing that no one cares and or it's not important and or wrong. Therefore, not reporting the act because of one neglectful adult.
