What is the difference between a metaphor and a symbol

English
1 answer:
Ahat [919]3 years ago
6 0
A metaphor does not need to use like or as. A metaphor typically says one thing is another thing, but doesn’t always suggest that they are the same thing. Symbolism is similar to metaphor, but symbolism is usually implied, while metaphor is explicit. For example, “Juliet is the sun” is a metaphor, but not a symbol, while heavy rain could be a reference to Noah’s Ark and be a symbol of cleansing. In the second case, the comparison is not stated, but is implied.
Based on these definitions, B and C are definitely wrong, but neither A or D is completely right. I’d still say that D is the best answer though.

Read the excerpt from The Canterbury Tales. "To start with, I declare where I've come from, And then produce my certificates, on
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1. the acceptance of the church's authority

2. The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy

Explanation:

1. The feature of medieval life reflected here is the acceptance of the church's authority.

The Canterbury Tales has about 24 stories with about 17,000 lines. The work was written by Geoffrey Chaucer Geoffrey around a period of 1387 and 1400. 

The Canterbury Tales is medieval literature and has great poetic power and entertainment value. The tales gives insight into the different social classes of that century, including their clothes, languages and the recreational activities of the time.

2. Based on the excerpt taken from this book, I can say that the statement that describes the satire here is The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy.

Chaucer used Satire to expose the hypocrisy of people and institutions who instead of reliving the poor from their poverty and leading them on a part of spirituality, try to make profits out of their suffering and show less concern about their suffering. The pardoner is a part of the church and should share in the suffering of others but instead he insists on getting the best food and drinks from people in poverty. He also sells redemption at a price
