why does the speaker of "Sailing to Byzantium" want to abandon his mortal body? (support position with evidence)

English
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]3 years ago
7 0
The speaker wants to abandon his mortal body because bodies as they age become old, raggedy, and useless. He says "An aged man is but a paltry thing, A tattered coat upon a stick". This shows how much he dislikes his old body and wishes to "<span>But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make", which means he thinks that in Byzantium he will take the form of a golden statue. </span>

Can someone please answer this properly, 100 points
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Talking in front of a lot of people is a little scary for me but i've done it before and I even played in front of a whole school before but that was for my band concert. I used to be really frightened of being on stage in front a whole school but that was my old fear and now I know to face my fear. Public speaking is like any skill. The more you do it, the better you get at it. I had to learn about the book "The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle" and now I have to start reading "Grief Along The Reef". If you didn't know Zachariah is the Seahawks cook, surgeon, and only black man. Originally from Africa, he is around 50 years old (the oldest on the ship), cannot read, and knows very little about Christianity. He does like the story of Jonah, though, he's also, as it turns out, Charlotte's closest ally on the Seahawk.
