In Oedipus the King, it is ironic that he curses Laius' murderer because Oedipus is actually his murderer. We find out that while traveling to the city where he is now the king, he murdered a man during an argument on the streets. This man ends up being Laius, although Oedipus did not know this at the time.

Read the excerpt from "A Defence of Poetry.” These and corresponding conditions of being are experienced principally by those of
Zepler [3.9K]

The correct answer is "Poets are capable of effectively capturing and preserving moments of beauty and pleasure in life".

From the beginning, the author is speaking about many of the qualities that all poets share and makes them able to put down their intense subjective experiences onto words in paper. <u>A vivid imagination, capacity to be vulnerable and delicate sensibilities, are all tools they have at their disposal to effectively capture the beauty of life and bring it back to others who might have shared their emotions</u>. Or as the excerpt puts it: "in those who have ever experienced these emotions, the sleeping, the cold, the buried image of the past".


Hope this helps!

40. During Montag's conversation with Mildred after Beatty leaves, what indication is there that
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Montag shows Mildred all the books he had hidden behind the grille of the air-conditioning system. Mildred is of course horrified and panics. He tells her that Beatty is already on to him and he must act now.

Explanation:g

Firehouse leader Captain Beatty goes to Montag in order to convince him that the fireman’s job is important. He explains that people began to lose interest in reading after the advent of television and that objections to some passages in books by interest groups and minorities led to censorship. Eventually it was felt that books and learning in general created inequality and unhappiness, and so books were banned. After Beatty leaves, Montag reveals to Mildred that he has hidden several books in the house. They begin reading, but he finds the books hard to understand, and Mildred prefers TV.
