Answer:

B). Whitman celebrates the common person.

Explanation:

Whitman modernized the 'epic poetry' and 'Song of Myself' reflects his brand of American epic poetry as it is categorized as one of the longest poems with a common theme of the celebration of common people(mankind in general) and their life. As the title of the poem itself suggests glorification of human life.

The poem is an admiration for the joy proposed by experiencing nature and the ability of an individual to unify their selves with nature(transcendent experience). The poem is described as proposing 'poetic meditation' as it analyzes the functioning of the human mind. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer as it proposes Whitman's style of American 'epic poetry.

Learning patience and humility is which part of odysseus's epic journey?
Molodets [167]
C) His transformation. When Odysseus finally returns home, he discovers there are multiple suitors who are taking advantage of his home in an effort to wed his wife Penelope who slowly becomes skeptical of Odysseus's survival. If Odysseus rushes in immediately, he would be killed by the large number of suitors. In order to win the upper hand, he disguises himself as an old man in order to calculate and plan out how to get rid of the suitors and reveal his true self to his wife. This involved great patience and humility, as being an elder man of a lowly status gave him a sense of humiliation from the treatment of those around him.
