Answer:

Two brother killed one another in battle.

Explanation:

The text is taken from the play 'Antigone' written by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles, around 441 BC. This is a tragedy play.

In the play, two brothers, namely, Eteocles and Polynices, fight with each other for the throne of Thebes. While fighting they both die. This fight began after Eteocles denied giving up his throne even after when his father,  Oedipus, told him to.

After their death, the new king Creon gives order to bury the corpse of Eteocles with honor and leave the body of Polynices on the battleground to disgrace him.

Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus and she decides to bury the body of her brother Polynices in an honorable manner.

So, the statement that best summarizes the passage is 'Two brothers killed one another in battle.'

How does Edmond's point of view in The Count of Monte Cristo and the sailor's point of view in "Sea Fever" reveal each text's th
sveta [45]

Edmond's point of view in "The Count of Monte Cristo" underscores the theme of how futile revenge is. The point of view in "Sea Fever" underscores the theme that living in nature is more pleasurable than urban living.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • In "The Count of Monte Cristo" we can see that Edmond maintains the point of view that someone who has suffered a crime must take revenge to find peace.
  • He maintains this thought throughout the narrative, but he cannot be satisfied with any result of his revenge, which reinforces the theme that revenge is something futile and meaningless.
  • “Sea Fever,” we can see that the speaker holds the view that the call of nature is something inevitable.
  • This speaker had an adventurous life when he lived amid nature, and the current life he has, in the city, is unsatisfactory because nature continues to call him.
  • This underscores the theme that living in nature is more pleasurable than urban living.

The point of view, in these cases, refers to the opinion of the characters.
