Sonnet 12

English
1 answer:
bonufazy [111]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Shakespeare's connection between changing seasons and the beauty of the love ones on Sonnet 12 is that he tries to show how beauty ends up aging.

<u>The passage of time ends up ruining the young beauty, either in a change of season</u>, such as when talking about trees that being autumn no longer have those beautiful leaves that provided shelter to the herds, or the flowers that wilt and they are no longer so beautiful; <u>as well as the passage of time in a man</u>, whose hair and beard that were previously black now turned white, <u>and the beauty of his beloved one</u> which, as time progresses, will abandon her.

The only way Shakespeare sees a solution to the advancement of time is to have children to leave as a proof of beauty.

Allushta [10]

Answer:

d) An oxymoron

Explanation:

A figures of speech is also referred to as figurative language and it can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by writers, authors or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or literary work (write-ups).

In English literature, the main purpose of the figures of speech (figurative language) is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of a literary work. Some examples of the figures of speech (figurative language) used in literature are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, oxymoron, etc.

An oxymoron can be defined as a figurative language that comprises of words or phrases that are contradictory.

This ultimately implies that, an oxymoron involves the intentional use of words or phrases that have opposite meanings.

Hence, if one uses a term like "giant shrimp", one creates an oxymoron because shrimps are small in all ramifications and cannot be referred to as a giant.

In conclusion, "giant shrimp" qualifies as an oxymoron because the words "giant" and "the small nature of a shrimp" are contradictory i.e have opposite meanings.
