1. The Greek name of the tragedy is Oedipus Tyrannos. The word "Tyrannos" can be translated as "usurper," an absolute ruler who

has seized power, not inherited it. Oedipus succeeds to the throne not by birthright, but through force, wit, and influence—killing Laios (not knowing who he is), answering the riddle of the Sphinx, and marrying the queen. How does the title "Tyrannos" reflect Oedipus’ reign over Thebes? How does it reflect one of the most powerful ironies in the play?

Oedipus is not destined to be the king of Thebes but he, however, rises to be. Although the throne is his birthright, his parents for fear of the fulfillment of the prophecy decide to kill him. The duty is delegated to a servant and Oedipus ends in the hands of the king and queen of Corinth. From the events that transpire after his birth, Oedipus is not predestined to be the king. He is at first thrown out of the throne. He only comes back to his homeland in fear of his fate. He manages to be the king because he has all that it takes to seize a throne.

Answer: sample answer:  

Many changes have occurred in the Muslim world since our last ambassador was here. Muslims here have argued among themselves about who is the true successor to the prophet Muhammad, and now instead of one united Islam, the faith is divided between Sunnis and Shi'as. Despite this split, Islam has spread far beyond the Arabian Peninsula. The empire here has spread across the region, into Africa, and even into Southern Europe. The Muslims have made great advancements as well. New works have been produced in medicine and science. Al-Khwarizmi has even discovered a new type of math called algebra. In addition, I think they have made great strides in art and architecture. Grand mosques now appear in cities across the empire.

Lesechka [4]

In the 1830s, several parties of Americans traveled to Oregon, further establishing the Oregon Trail. Many of these emigrants were missionaries seeking to convert natives to Christianity. Jason Lee was the first, traveling in Nathaniel Jarvis Wyeth's party in 1833 and establishing the Oregon Mission in the Willamette Valley; the Whitmans and Spaldings arrived in 1836, establishing the Whitman Mission east of the Cascades. In 1839 the Peoria Party embarked for Oregon from Illinois.

In 1841, wealthy master trapper and entrepreneur Ewing Young died without a will, and there was no system to probate his estate. A probate government was proposed at a meeting after Young's funeral. Doctor Ira Babcock of Jason Lee's Methodist Mission was elected Supreme Judge. Babcock chaired two meetings in 1842 at Champoeg (halfway between Lee's mission and Oregon City) to discuss wolves and other animals of contemporary concern. These meetings were precursors to an all-citizen meeting in 1843, which instituted a provisional government headed by an executive committee made up of David Hill, Alanson Beers, and Joseph Gale. This government was the first acting public government of the Oregon Country before American annexation.
