Which excerpt from Chapter 28 of MobyDick best develops the theme of the novel concerning man’s insistence on manufacturing his

own destruction.
A Nevertheless, ere long, the warm, warbling persuasiveness of the pleasant, holiday weather we came to, seemed gradually to charm him from his mood.

B And not only that, but moody stricken Ahab stood before them with a crucifixion in his face; in all the nameless regal overbearing dignity of some mighty woe.

C There seemed no sign of common bodily illness about him, nor of the recovery from any.

D Whether that mark was born with him, or whether it was the scar left by some desperate wound, no one could certainly say.

The excerpt from Chapter 28 of Moby Di-ck which best develops the theme of the novel concerning man’s insistence on manufacturing his own destruction is:

B. And not only that, but moody stricken Ahab stood before them with a crucifixion in his face; in all the nameless regal overbearing dignity of some mighty woe.

One of the important theme in the novel “Moby Di-ck” is about the relationship between nature and man. The novel is about a man, Ahab, who goes out in the natural world to disturb the balance of nature by killing the animals. Though at the end of the novel, it is the nature who remains unchanged and the man has to witness a failure.  Ahab had a strong belief in the fate because of which he thinks that it is in his destiny to slay down the whale. The desire for revenge exists stands secondary for him. He combines his egoism with the feeling of revenge and moves on to destroy the whale. He ignores the prophecies about the destruction that will cause to his ship and himself if he moved on. In the end, he falls prey to his own destruction causing his identity to extinct.

Answer:

Hi!

The answer is <u>option B. And not only that, but moody stricken Ahab stood before them with a crucifixion in his face; in all the nameless regal overbearing dignity of some mighty woe</u>.

Explanation:

In this paragraph you can see the concerning man’s insistence on manufacturing his own destruction by the cues it gives. For instance, in Ahab standing before them "in all the nameless regal overbearing dignity of some mighty woe", we can see that even when Ahab was moody stricken carrying woe, he'd still pretend to stand tall and arrogantly instead of being humble and admitting his feelings.

HELP FAAST PLEASE 7. Good What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on hi
max2010maxim [7]

Answer (You didn't tell me what poem and which stanza) Is it this poem? :

"Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas

Do not go gentle into that good night,

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,

Because their words had forked no lightning they

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on his descriptions)?:

Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" during a very specific moment in Dylan Thomas's life. His father, David John Thomas, had first introduced him to the wonder of language by reading him Shakespeare before bed at night. Thomas's father was a grammar school teacher, but he had always wanted to be a poet but was never able to realize his dream. Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" because his father was dying.
