Analyze the setting that Dante develops in Canto IV. Examine how 1) the choices he makes to describe the setting and 2) the char
Jlenok [28]

1) In Canto IV of "Inferno", Dante descends into Limbo, the First Circle of Hell. He tries to fix his eyes in order to know the place where he is. 'Limbus' in latin means edge, borger, margin. Dante chooses pictorical and musical elements to describe the setting. He distinguishes sounds: «Here, as mine ear could note, no plaint was heard / Except of sighs, that made the eternal air / Tremble, not caused by tortures, but from grief». It's a place of «shadowy sadness», «dark and deep and murky». It's a «blind world» beacuse here lie men and women that never knew the light of hope that is Christ. The pale faces of Virgil and other characters reveal the anguish of knowing the they will never enjoy the presence of God. Eventhough, near the end of the Canto IV, Dante characterizes this circle as serene in comparisson with climate with storms and where no light shines that is properly Hell.

2) According to medieval theologists, this was the place where babies whithout being baptized rested. Also, this place exists for patriarchs, virtuous people whose only fault was not to be baptized. For his time, Dante was daring, because he gave more importance to figures like Aristotle and Homer than to the unbaptized infants. Some of the characters the Dante places in Limbo are easily known, like Aristotle, Democritus and Homer. He names many biblical figures, such as Noah, Abel and Moses. Dante meets many characters from Greek and Latin tradition. Naso and Lucan are some examples. Other characters are mythological: like Hector or Electra. There are also a muslims: Saladin, Avicenna and Averroes. This many characters make difficult to understand this circle, since they imply numerous traditions: poetry, philsophy, mathematics, heroes.

What may happen if the line length of your electronic cover letter exceeds 65 characters?
zepelin [54]
Nothing will happen. It's a myth. The myth of the one-page letter is so strong that I have heard people ask this question over and over again. Yes, it's true, a one page cover letter is what is considered to be a norm here, but if you have a good reason for exceeding it, I assume nothing will happen. Of course, it differs from place to place. Someone might just disregard it, looking at you as unprofessional because you exceeded the limit that they gave you, which was a test in itself. So it really depends more on the place. Hope this helps
