According to canto 33 what souls are punished in the 9th circle? what sins have they committed

1 answer:

7 0

The souls of the Traitors and Benefactors are found in the 9th circle of Hell.
Three souls are prominent there for their Traitorous acts "Each of Lucifer’s mouths holds a sinner—the three greatest sinners of human history, all Traitors to a Benefactor. In the center mouth dangles Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Christ. In the left and right mouths hang Brutus and Cassius, who murdered Julius Caesar in the Roman Senate. Brutus and Cassius appear with their heads out, but Judas is lodged headfirst; only his twitching legs protrude. The mouths chew their victims, constantly tearing the traitors to pieces but never killing them. Virgil tells Dante that they have now seen all of Hell and must leave at once."

How can i recognize slanted language

shusha [124]

ANSWER:

You can recognise slanted language when the language contains an intentional positive or negative bias or opinion rather than presenting the information or subject in a neutral manner.

You can refer to the table attached for examples and examine the difference between the way in which the same subject is described in a different manner; the left-hand side of the table presenting the subject in a neutral manner while the right-hand side presenting the subject with a negative bias or opinion.

Hope this helps! :)

statuscvo [17]

In a response of 2–3 paragraphs, answer the following questions:

1. What are the beliefs of Creon, Antigone, and Haimon about laws? Compare and contrast.

The first difference is their gender. Creon as the male ruler is responsible for the health and wellbeing of the entire city. He is to make sure that everyone is all right and is in proper care children as well as elders. Creon always made sure to follow protocol when it came to religion-based affairs, and always contacted Tiresias. Antigone, as the female, on the other hand was placed in the department of house chores and family burial sites. She was in charge of making sure the house was in proper order and that burials were in the rightful order.

2. What is the conflict of Antigone?

The main conflict in Antigone had to be the debate on the laws of man or the laws of god.

3. What is the theme of Antigone?

The main idea of Antigone was revolved around fate choosing for you or self-made choices. While Antigone made the choice to defy and ignore everyone of Creon’s’ orders, fate on the other hand was responsible for a significant amount of loss in the poem.

4. How does the conflict help develop the theme you identified? Be specific and use evidence from the text to support your answers.

One of the main conflicts were Antigone vs. society as well as society vs. the state. In the poem, Antigone finds herself in conflict with the society or the state only because of the new king’s, Creon, law which she finds highly unfair and offensive.

Hope this helps!
