Answer:

Pathos is represented in this work by the sadness and melancholy caused by the tragic death of the main character's father.

Explanation:

Pathos means "suffering and experience". In Aristotle's rhetoric, this translates into the ability of the speaker or writer to provoke emotions and feelings in his audience. Pathos is associated with emotion, refers to the appeal to the emotional side of the target audience. In short, pathos seeks to empathize with the public. When the author shows in the book "A Shocking Accident" all the suffering, melancholy and pain that the character is feeling through the sudden death of his father, the author is able to move the readers and communicate with them through a plot, using pathos.

“Who is More Heroic: Odysseus, Penelope or some other character from the Odyssey?” Be sure to cite evidence from the text to sup
Juliette [100K]
In the Odyssey it is very clear that there are a lot of heroic charctors indubitably since the book is an epic. One character stands out as having the most noble and honorable trait that is Penelope she is an honorable and faithful wife who is waiting for odessyous return from the war. A scene in this book that demonstrates this best is when penople making Odessyous burial should while really its trying to prevent a marriage to another man on the island so she can remain true to Odessyous. You may say that she doesn't do much like save lives or slay giant Cyclopes but what makes a hero it's the noble qualities the deeds they do how they stand up for what they know is right therefore I say the must heroic hero is in fact Penelope.

What is the deeper meaning of Gatsby's swimming pool?
Vladimir [108]
Gatsby had not used his swimming pool once untill the day he died. He was very wealthy and had access to many luxuries but did not enjoy them. The purpose of these luxuries was to impress his love Daisy. The fact that he used his pool before he died probably represents the fact that he knew his time was limited and he used this time to finaly induldge in the luxuries he had. He knew he would never be able to have Daisy now and so there was no point in just having things to have them. I hope that helps.
