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

English

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>

How do you use text evidence to support an interpretation of theme<br> in a story?
lbvjy [14]
You can use text evidence to back up what type of interpretation you have of a theme. Like the theme “Challenge’s can be overcome with hard work and patience” if your interpretation of the theme is that the theme Challenge’s can be overcome with hard work and patience means that when you have obstacles and challenges that you need to overcome. Having patience and being doing hard work can help you overcome your obstacles/challenges. Then you can give an example by using text evidence. There are plenty of other ways to use text evidence to support an interpretation of a theme as well.
