Answer: C) Gregor’s sudden and inexplicable transformation into a bug.

Explanation: The definition of absurd is utterly or obviously senseless, illogical, or untrue; contrary to all reason or common sense. The use of absurdity in literature is a vehicle for writers to explore those elements in the world that do not make sense. In "The Metamorphosis" we can see an example of the absurd in the fact that Gregor transform into a bug in a sudden and inexplicable way.

Answer:

C). Gregor’s sudden and inexplicable transformation into a bug.

Explanation:

In literature, the "absurd" represents actions that seem lacking in meaning or truth, and that a reader might find inexplicable. This is a concept that is prevalent in Kafka's work. Absurd literature, moreover, can seem to lack congruence or "sense." It also explores existencialist or nihilist subjects. In this case, one example of the absurd in The Metamorphosis is the fact that Gregor suddenly and inexplicably transforms into a bug.

Well think about it for a second.

Beowulf, The Iliad, and Oedipus are all old novels/poems.

Lord Jim on the other hand was written in the 1900's. Way after the former three were written. So Lord Jim would be your answer.

Hope that helps!

What is an example of sacrifice in act 5 of merchant of venice by shakespeare
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

As always, Shakespeare makes use of a good deal of blank verse, which is to say unrhymed iambic pentameter. The verses in the caskets and the comments of Morocco and Aragon thereon are in trochaic tetrameter, without the weak beat of the last trochee, as Dum-da Dum-da Dum-da Dum. The rhythm of "Tell me where is fancy bred" is similar: it may be scanned as iambic tetrameter as well as trochaic.

Hopefully thats what ur looking for, hope this helps!!!
