KQ Image 2 shows how “Odysseus cunningly escapes the cove." Why does
777dan777 [17]

Another synonym of the word cunning is trickery. The caption used the word cunningly because Odysseus actually devised a trick to get free from the hostage of the Cyclops, Polyphemus.

  • In the story, "The Odyssey," we learn of Odysseus who was a warrior. He entered the cave of the one-eyed giants known as the Cyclops.

  • His men advised him to quickly take milk and cheese from the cave and escape but he refused to heed their pleas. Polyphemus captured him there.

  • To escape, he passed a wooden rod through fire when Polyphemus was away caring for his sheep. When Polyphemus came back, he got him intoxicated and told him that his name was "Nobody".

  • When drunk, he drove the rod through the eyes of Polyphemus so that when the other cyclops came to inquire what was happening, Polyphemus told them that "Nobody" was killing him.

  • Clinging to the belly of Polyphemus' sheep, Odysseus made his escape from the cave.

  • Conclusively, all of these were acts of trickery that demonstrate how Odysseus escaped from the cave.

What does Achebe’s use of the phrase "laying a claim” suggest about his perception of Conrad?
LenaWriter [7]

Read the excerpt from Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness.

And the intimate profundity of that look he gave me when he received his hurt remains to this day in my memory—like a claim of distant kinship affirmed in a supreme moment.

Read the excerpt from "An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad’s Heart of Darkness.”

It is important to note that Conrad, careful as ever with his words, is concerned not so much about "distant kinship" as about someone laying a claim on it. The black man lays a claim on the white man which is well-nigh intolerable. It is the laying of this claim which frightens and at the same time fascinates Conrad.

What does Achebe’s use of the phrase "laying a claim” suggest about his perception of Conrad?

It reveals that he is using the phrase ironically to describe an unlikely relationship.

It shows that he thinks that Conrad is uncomfortable with the idea of African power.

It shows that he is trying to suggest a more profound, long-lasting, and spiritual claim than Conrad did in the novella.

It reveals that he is using the phrase in a more positive way to suggest that there are invisible bonds that link black and white people.

Answer:

It reveals that he is using the phrase ironically to describe an unlikely relationship

Explanation:

According to the excerpts from Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness and "An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad’s Heart of Darkness", the narrators talk about the pain which is compared to laying a claim to a distant kinship and also how he is frightened about the idea of someone laying a claim to a distant kinship.

Therefore, Achebe uses the phrase "laying a claim” to suggest that his perception of Conrad reveals that he is using the phrase ironically to describe an unlikely relationship.
