Answer:

The conflic between Odysseus and the Cyclops allows the reader to see Odysseus' cleverness and intelligence.

By telling Polyphemus that his name was "Outis" which means "nobody" in Greek, Oddyseus made sure that, when his plan to kill the cyclops were executed, Polyphemus could not get help from his fellow cyclops.

This is because, when they ask the cyclops what was troubling him, Polyphemus answers that "nobody" was killing him causing the other cyclops to leave without helping Polyphemus.

It reveals that Odysseus was a very smart man, and was able to figure out that if he told Cyclops that his name was Nobody, Cyclops would tell the other cyclopes, and they wouldn't help him because they would only hear: "Nobody was here!"

What is the most likely reason that thoreau structured this text around the idea of a wild apple tree as a noble fruit
jeka94

Thoreau called the wild apple tree a noble tree <u>because it symbolizes knowledge.</u>

Explanation:

Thoreau was one of the most imminent transcendental thinkers of the mid 19th century. <u>He believed that  spiritual unity could be achieved by knowing and then feeling oneself to be one with nature, </u>the path went through knowledge.

As such, the<u> tree of apple has a biblical allusio</u>n and represents the tree of knowledge that Adam eats from. <u>The same tree can be said to be noble if the person eating from it can become one with nature with that knowledge.</u>

What is the purpose of this passage from the myth?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

To explain how the heavens, earth, and rivers were created

Explanation:

The passage you were given is the following:

Ea called on Marduk, a great warrior god, saying that if Marduk should be victorious, he would be the lord of all the gods. A great battle ensued, with gods raging against each other. Marduk reached Tiamat, the embodiment of chaos, and smashed her head with his great club. He sliced her in half, making the North Wind bear her pieces away. From each half of her ribs he created the vault of the heavens and the earth. Her weeping eyes became sacred rivers, and Tiamat was no more.

The purpose of this passage is to explain how the heavens, earth, and rivers were created. The lines that prove this are:

  • <em>From each half of her ribs he created the vault of the heavens and the earth. Her weeping eyes became sacred rivers, and Tiamat was no more.</em>

Myths that tell about how the world began and how people first came to inhabit it are called creation (or cosmogonic) myths.

All literature written after 1920 is difficult to understand and lacks the poise, elegance, and refinement of traditional litera
dybincka [34]

The logical fallacy that is being used in the passage is B) overgeneralization.

Although there are some narratives written after 1920 that are characterized by their complexity such as William Faulkner's works,<u> not all literature written after that time is difficult to understand</u>. Furthermore, complexity is not a synonym of a lack of elegance or refinement.

There are flaws in reasoning in this passage due to hasty generalization. Overgeneralization occurs when someone unable to consider the whole panorama generalises from inadequate or insufficient evidence and reaches a rushed conclusion about a certain subject. It is overgeneralization what has lead this passage to become an illogical statement.
