Arachne filled her canvas with these and like subjects, wonderfully well done, but strongly marking her presumption and impiety.

Minerva could not forbear to admire, yet felt indignant at the insult. She struck the web with her shuttle, and rent it in pieces; she then touched the forehead of Arachne, and made her feel her guilt and shame. She could not endure it, and went and hanged herself. Minerva pitied her as she saw her hanging by a rope. "Live, guilty woman," said she; "and that you may preserve the memory of this lesson, continue to hang, you and your descendants, to all future times." She sprinkled her with the juices of aconite, and immediately her hair came off, and her nose and ears likewise. Her form shrank up, and her head grew smaller yet; her fingers grew to her side, and served for legs. All the rest of her is body, out of which she spins her thread, often hanging suspended by it, in the same attitude as when Minerva touched her and transformed her into a spider. Source: Ovid. "Arachne." Project Gutenberg. Project Gutenberg, 2 Apr. 2001. Web. 25 Feb. 2011. Which purpose of mythology is illustrated by the myth of Arachne? the Initiation history the Quest religion

Analyze Lowell’s use of symbolism in the poem “For the Union Dead.” Explain how Lowell’s use of symbolism helps to develop one o
murzikaleks [220]

monument to the heroic ideals of New England life, which are jeopardized in the present just as the statue itself is shaken by urban renewal.Images of black children entering segregated schools reveal how the ideals for which Shaw and his men died were neglected after the Civil War. The poem’s final stanzas return to the aquarium. The poet pictures Shaw riding on a fish’s air bubble, breaking free to the surface, but in fact, the aquarium is abandoned and the only fish are fin-tailed cars.This poem is a brilliant example of Lowell’s ability to link private turmoil to public disturbances. The loss of childhood in the early section of the poem expands to the loss of America’s early ideals, and both are brought together in the last lines to give the poem a public and private intensity.The poem is organized into unrhymed quatrains of uneven length, allowing a measure of flexibility within a formal structure.

.The way music influences our mentality.
rodikova [14]

For me, instumental music allows me to focus while I do school. It is proven science that music can create feelings in people that cannot be explained. For instance, when I listen to the song New shoes by Blue Wednesday, I feel happy and cheerful. When I listen to the song Blackheart by Two steps from hell and thomas bergonson, I feel like I am in medieval times with witchcraft and wizardry. Different songs can have different influences on all people.

I hope this helped you! Brainliest would be great!
