In Oedipus the King, it is ironic that he curses Laius' murderer because Oedipus is actually his murderer.

Why is the following an example of parallel structure:
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer and Explanation:

Parallel structure in sentences is when the list of items is organized and written in the same way. For example, if a sentence was written “I like to play basketball, play soccer, and play volleyball”, this is in parallel structure because each item is of the form “play ______”.

Here, this is parallel structure because each item is by itself, without being preceded by a verb, except for the very first one, which is allowed because that verb “buy” will apply to every item following.

That’s why this is parallel structure.

"The Black Cat" is a short story written by the American writer Edgar Allan Poe, that tells the story of a man that was condemned for killing his wife and hiding the body.
