From the options given, the one that best analyzes how Shaw draws upon the work of the Roman poet, Ovid, is A: Like Ovid's main character, <em>Shaw's main character portrays a level of disdain for women.</em>
Explanation:
First, let's say that we are talking about <em>Pygmalion</em>, by George Bernard Shaw, a play published in 1913. <em>Pygmalion</em> derives its name from the famous story in Ovid's <em>Metamorphoses</em>, in which Pygmalion feels disgusted by the loose and shameful lives of the women of his era. Due to this feeling, he decides to live alone and unmarried.
In this case, like Pygmalion (the main character from <em>Metamorphoses</em>), <u>the main character feels disgusted by them -women-, that is why the correct answer is A.

Answer:
B
Explanation:
The narrator talks about how the fire wasting a man that was tied to a stake. Assuming that the fire is symbolic for fate, it makes sense for this passage to describe parraylissis. Especially when looking in the context of the last sentence, describing the man as a "unalterable mold" "made of solid bronze" someone who is unaltered is unable to move, and solid bronze is unmovable by human hands after a certain amount is gathered. I was debating between A and D though, so I'll tell you why I didn't pick D. d refers to nature and mans lack of ability to change it, however where nature is involved in the passage (fire) the man doesn't try to shape or change it, it changes the man.
