The correct answer is C: The rich have too much time on their hands and not enough to think about. Pope tries to punctuate the ridiculousness of a society in which values have lost all proportion and the society the poem describes is one that isn't able to distinguish between what really matters and what doesn't. His intention was to cool hot tempers and to encourage people to laugh at their own absurdity.

What word describes effective persuasion?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

D) Rhetoric

Explanation:

<u> The rhetorical model of persuasion means that the argument presented is effective and appealing, posing as the truth and presenting many valuable assertions. </u>Good persuasion should make the audience change their mind and find the presenter credible and the speech emotional. It is also good to use rhetorical devices – these are stylistic devices and figures of speech that make the argument and discussion more colorful, grab the attention of the audience, and tend to help the person persuade the audience into the argument.

Good persuasion should use the models of rhetoric persuasion which are <u>pathos </u>(emotional convention), <u>ethos </u>(the belief and principle, main idea that gathers people around it), <u>logos </u>(principle of reason), and <u>kairos </u>(timeliness of the argument, the fact that it can be used outside of the certain setting or context)

What is the history of Beowulf? Where was It written, how old Is It, and why do scholars find it to be important?
pishuonlain [190]

The story is set in Scandinavia in the 6th century. Beowulf, a hero of the Geats, comes to the aid of Hrothgar, the king of the Danes, whose mead hall in Heorot has been under attack by a monster known as Grendel. After Beowulf slays him, Grendel's mother attacks the hall and is then also defeated.

It is possibly the oldest surviving long poem in Old English and is commonly cited as one of the most important works of Old English literature. It was written in England some time between the 8th and the early 11th century. The author was an anonymous Anglo-Saxon poet, referred to by scholars as the “Beowulf poet.”
