My design leads me to speak of forms changed into new bodies. Ye Gods, (for you it was who changed them,) favor my attempts, and

bring down the lengthened narrative from the very beginning of the world, even to my own times. [Ovid, Metamorphoses]
One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible insect. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. [Kafka, Metamorphosis]

These two authors, separated by almost 2000 years, begin their works in very different ways. Aside from the fact that Ovid speaks in the first person, what is the MOST significant difference in these excerpts?
A) Ovid seems to welcome transformation.
B) Kafka is less descriptive than Ovid.
C) Ovid's tone is more formal.
D) Kafka seems to enjoy Samsa's transformation.

In “The Prologue” to The Canterbury Tales Chaucer says the Knight “was a true, a perfect gentle-knight” (line 72). The Knight’s
Sphinxa [80]

<em>The Canterbury Tales</em> was written in Medieval times. Because of this, the text is greatly preoccupied with the subject of chivalry. Therefore, the texts talks extensively about knights, squires and fair maidens.

An example of this is the knight that appears in the prologue. We learn that this knight is the perfect example of an ideal gentleman. He is brave, humble, constant and honest. He does not fear anything, and is honorable and virtuous. He is also the father of the squire.

The squire is the knight's son, and he is also an admirable character. He is somewhat brave and honourable. However, Chaucer makes it clear that the character of the squire is not comparable to that of the knight. While the knight possesses all the chivalrous qualities fully, the squire is only beginning to learn them.

Both characters share similar motivations. They both want to achieve honour and glory. They also want to fulfill their duty towards others, and be thought of as capable and brave. However, the squire is more hesitant to put himself in danger. Moreover, while the knight is humble, the squire is concerned with wealth and beauty. This shows that although the squire is learning a lot in order to become like the knight, he is still not able to achieve the level of a knight when it comes to humility and bravery.

Ksivusya [100]
12:00 pm yet more often than not it relies on upon how you are measuring time. Time zones are a little more than 1000 miles wide at the equator. So when it turns 12 twelve at the equator, the sun unmistakably can't be at its most elevated height for each spot along an extend of 1000 miles at a similar moment. In any case, by definition, the sun is at its most noteworthy every day at sunlight based twelve.
