Answer:

c. because they were literate, they were able to record texts and teach others to read.

Explanation:

During the middle ages, the work that the monks carried out was a determining factor in the safekeeping of classic texts from antiquity and in spreading literacy in general. Through their work, many of the most precious literary and philosophical works that the Greeks and the Romans produced were maintained for posterity. These works were later the most influential sources in what became the Renaissance era in Italy and later in all of Europe, they became the foundation for literature and philosophy in the modern era.

Is the trojan war a myth or a legend? support your response with adequate reasons

Kitty [74]

It is a legend. Legends typically contain a small sliver of truth, but they become misconstrued and distorted over time.

"A legend contains some facts and becomes exaggerated to the point that real people or events take on a 'larger than life' quality. In contrast, a myth isn't based on fact, but is symbolic storytelling that was never based on fact."

- Bismarck Tribune, "Examining the difference between myths and legends"

"... It was an epoch-defining moment in their distant past. As the historical sources - Herodotus and Eratosthenes - show, it was generally assumed to have been a real event."

- BBC Culture, "Did the Trojan War actually happen?"
