<span>After Jack learns that Miss Prism accidentally left him in the handbag at Victoria station, he embraces her with joy. She is taken aback, claiming that she is unmarried, and he goes on to mention that, while “that is a serious blow” to know his ‘mother’ had gotten pregnant from a random man, there is no need “to be one law for men and another for women” and she is forgiven (177). Wilde is trying to state that women and men should be on the same respective level when it comes to matters of fault. He forgives her for her “act of folly”, saying that women should be forgiven just as easily as men can be forgiven for their wrongdoings, like how easily Jack and Algernon were forgiven by the girls for lying about their names (177).</span>

A) Determine two or more themes or central ideas of a text.
kati45 [8]

1. The Prioress's description reveals the theme of delicacy, modesty and elegance that the churches represented. Although Catholicism preached the benefits of poverty, the church was elegant, beautiful, with a noble appearance, but modest behavior, just as the Prioress represented. She also shows the ideal feminine standard for the time, being highly praised, but chaste and modest.

2. The monk also suggests the refinement and wealth that could be observed in churches. However, the monk preaches about the benefits of poverty, which can show the inconsistency and hypocrisy that the clergy presented, this is also reinforced by the fact that the monk does not present himself as an evil character, but we also cannot say that there is goodness in him.

3. The friar represents the ambition of the churches, since he shows himself as a charming and wise man, but he is disguised and pretended and is always ready to hamper the faithful and use their faith to obtain large collections that increase their wealth.

4. Parson represents the goodness and faithfulness of the church in following the principles of christ, helping the poor, being honest and upright. He is described as a man of God, who has not been corrupted by wealth, lives a humble life and helps the faithful without asking for large payments.

What is the argument for the possibility that Plato may have made up the story of Atlantis?​
Tamiku [17]

Answer: The sunken city of Atlantis has never been found, and many critics assume that Plato invented the story of Atlantis to warn people what might happen if they continue with their habits.

Explanation:

Atlantis is a lost city which was first mentioned in Plato's dialogues, around 360 B.C.

Many critics assume that Plato created the whole story of Atlantis, to support his philosophical theories. In his work, Plato often included the elements such as utopian societies, corruption, human habits, etc. Therefore, Atlantis could be interpreted as his attempt to warn people of the gods' punishment for their habits. This theory is supported by the fact that there are no records of the existence of Atlantis apart from Plato's dialogues. Moreover, no trace of the sunken city has ever been found by the oceanographers.
