alisha [4.7K]3 years ago

The megaliths can simply be defined as large stones that are forming a monument from the prehistory, or are part of a monument of the prehistory. There are numerous megaliths found around the globe, with some being more famous than others, such as Gobekle Tepe and Stonehenge. All of the megaliths are surrounded in mystery, as the historians still can not provide proper answers about their building, or the transportation of these stones, as they have been brought from areas far away from where they have been built. The main theories are that they have been built fro either astronomical purposes, or for religious purposes. The transportation of these stones is still subject of hot debate, with theories that wood has been used for their transportation, the rivers have been used (where there are rivers), some technology that still has not be defined about this period of time.

In a few words, identify the key differences between Aristotle's definitions of tragedy and comedy
bazaltina [42]

According to Aristotle, both tragedy and epic are forms of imitation. Tragedy imitates directly by means of mimesis and epic both directly and indirectly by means of mimesis and diegesis. While epic imitates solely by means of words, tragedy also imitates by means of spectacle. Both epic and tragedy portray people better or greater than the average spectator, unlike comedy which portrays people as worse than they actually are and uses humour to dissuade us from acting badly (Aristotle's lost treatise on comedy may be summarized in the Tractatus Coislinianus; see also Eco, The Name of the Rose for interesting view of Aristotle on comedy)

Due to practical constraints of production, tragedy ideally has a single unified action which is often restricted to a specific time and place. and a small n umber of characters, while epic has a broader scope of coverage.

Which statement explains the significance of this colonial institution?
sesenic [268]

The correct answer is A. The assembly served as a model for other colonial legislatures.

Explanation:

The Virginia House of Burgesses was a government institution in Virginia from 1619 to 1776. In this, the colonies elected representatives whose function was to make certain political decisions and approve laws for the colony. This colonial institution was later replaced by a most modern institution, known as the House of Delegates. However, the creation of the Virginia House of Burgesses was extremely important because it was one of the first institutions with elected representatives, which serve as a model for many other institutions not only in Virginia but also in other colonies. According to this, the correct answer is A.
