Explanation:
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read the claim from Dan DeLuca's editorial "Dylan's Nobel Prize Settles Debate: Rock Lyrics Are Poetry."
Are rock lyrics poetry? The answer must be yes.
Which excerpt from the article provides evidence that supports this claim?
"The Swedish Academy's decision to honor Dylan set off an online debate."
"Salman Rushdie, a Nobel candidate himself, called Dylan ‘the brilliant inheritor of the bardic tradition.’"
"Dylan is of course enormously influential."
"The Nobel is given for a body of work."
Answer:
"Salman Rushdie, a Nobel candidate himself, called Dylan ‘the brilliant inheritor of the bardic tradition.’"
Explanation:
The excerpt selected above is the only one that supports the idea that the lyrics of rock music can and should be considered poetry, because it shows an influential individual who testifies that Dylan should be considered a great poet, capable of expressing feelings with music, as the bardic tradition states. With this, the author of the article offers strong support to his argument and allows the reader to remember the bardic tradition, which is able to end this discussion between music and poetry.
The claim is usually defined as your belief, like what you think it is. Example: I believe that all spiders are bad, but on the other hand... something like this i think. I hope this helps you.
Bobby talked about Baby Boomers
Alliteration is a rhetorical device that repeats the same sound at the beginning of words. "Bobby", "Baby", and "Boomers" all have the same "B" sound at the beginning.
