Why is flowery language appropriate for a poem?

English
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
7 0

Flowery language consists in a very ornate and elaborated way of writing (and speaking) being contrary to the simple form of the language. In poetry, this kind of language works well due to the fact that it serves to create a more complex atmosphere and cause different sensations to the reader. Also, it beautifies the figure of the poet and the poem as a whole, making the author look like a virtuoso of the language.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

"The Illiad" was written by Homer in the 8th Century B.C.

Explanation:

The great epic poem "The Illiad" was written by the blind poet Homer. Most historians assumed and accepted the time of publication and composition to be around the 8th - 13th Century B.C.

The authorship of this epic poem narrating the Battle of Troy is debated by many. Some historians and critics claim that there is no one single man named Homer who could have composed all these tales, covering just a mere 51 days of the final days of the war. But it contains a background detailing of the story before the actual battle. The Greeks credited a blind poet named Homer to be the true writer. This Homer, according to them, was the most famous and credited him to be the basis of their Greek identity foundation. They also agreed on the fact that Homer had recited the whole poetry from memory.

The real period of publication and the authorship of this epic has been debated and tried to be rediscovered by many scholars and historians. But due to it's ancient and old nature of the story, there are really no hard proof of it. But, the general opinion is that Homer is the rightful author of this work and that it may probably have been written around the 8th century B.C. This is in consideration of the topic of the book which deals with the famous battle of Troy that happened during the 13th Century B.C, which made it probable for the epic to be written after that.
