The correct answer is A) An epic begins in medias res. Its important to remember that the term medias res means that a story, in this case <em>In Paradise Lost</em>, begins in the middle of a plot. Because John Milton does not tell the story of how Satan and the other angels fell from heaven but picks up after, this is an example of epic form.

PolarNik [594]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the stanza from "Twelfth Song of Thunder."

The voice that beautifies the land!

The voice above,

The voice of the thunder

Within the dark cloud

Again and again it sounds,

The voice that beautifies the land.

Which message does the repetition in the stanza make clear?

The sound of thunder up above, crashing repeatedly, makes the natural landscape beautiful.

The crashing of the thunder as it rolls over the land is everywhere and makes the people nervous.

The thundering sounds of the storm are everywhere and can make nature a dangerous place.

Some thunder is coming over the landscape, but it appears that it will only be temporary.

Answer:

The sound of thunder up above, crashing repeatedly, makes the natural landscape beautiful.

Explanation:

Repetition is a figure of speech that allows the repetition of the same word, or the same syllable in a text. This figure of speech is used to emphasize a term, highlighting its importance for the message conveyed by the text.

In the case of the poem shown above, repetition is used with the word "voice", which is repeated several times to highlight the sound of thunder that embellishes the natural landscape.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The direct characterization of Dr. Jekyll implies that he is upset by Utterson's persistence.

Explanation:

"Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is a gothic novel by Robert Louis Stevenson. The main character is Dr. Jekyll, a doctor who is able to develop a potion that separates the good aspects of his personality from the bad. Mr. Hyde is the man he transforms into when the bad traits take over.

In this particular excerpt, we have a brief direct characterization that reveals something about the character. Direct characterization takes place when the narrator/author is the one explicitly describing the character. In this case, it is <u>"The large handsome face of Dr. Jekyll grew pale to the very lips, and there came a blackness about his eyes." This characterization shows that Jekyll is upset. He is clearly not bored, offended, or resigned. Those adjectives would need a completely different description. The paleness of his face and lips, the shadow over his eyes, all show that Utterson's persistence is disconcerting Jekyll. He does not wish to discuss this any further.</u>
