English
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Linda Hogan claimed she felt safe in Manitou for she believes "the underground movement of water and heat [were] a constant reminder of other life, of what lives beneath us, [and that] seemed to be the center of the world".

This place, to her, felt like the perfect amalgamation of the spatial barrier that the native Americans believe as the world of their ancestors. And in her exclamation of this place as the center of the world, she also shows that she holds a belief in the very belief of the native Americans.

Explanation:

Linda Hogan in her book "Dwellings: A Spiritual History of the Living World" talks about the houses we live in, and how they depend on humans to be deemed living spaces. She talks about her lifelong fascination and love for the world, the earth, where we live, delving into the relationship between the spaces that humans dwell in and the rest of nature.

Hogan stated that <em>"she felt safe in Manitou"</em> due to the fact that it reminded her of the<em> "other life, of what lives beneath us"</em>. She mentioned that <em>"with the underground movement of water and heat [...] it seemed to be the center of the world". </em>

This shows that her deep-rooted belief in the native American belief system is reflected in her own sense of comparison between the two spaces, that of humans and nature. She discusses how both spaces are necessary for the healthy psyche of a person and how interconnected the two are.

Match each satirical quote to its real meaning.
dedylja [7]
I have to use process of elimination here because as much as Lord Byron is a wonderful wordsmith, Don Juan can be so very confusing to me at times. No matter, here we go:

The Peter Bell The Third quote is "criticises the subject for having abundant knowledge of the world but low self-awareness". A few clues; "all things he seemed to understand" and then "but his own mind... was a mist".

The first Don Juan quote is "criticises the subject for confusing his audience". This one was harder, but the clues here are: "I wish he would explain his explanation". This seems to suggest the audience is confused.

That leaves the final Don Juan quote in the middle to be "criticises his subject for his half baked knowledge".

Hope that I could help!

(Antigone) Creon says that Antigone is "of all the people in this city, only she/Has had contempt for my laws and broken it." Wh
denis23 [38]

The answer is D. all of the above, because while Antigone is the only one to openly defy Creon and disagree with him to his face, she is not the only one who has contempt for his laws. Ismene, Antigone's sister, also disagrees with the law, but she does not act upon it like her sister did. Haemon also disagrees with Creon, his father and Antigone's betrothed, because he honors the laws of the Gods above the laws of man, he does tell his father he ahs heard other people complaining about the edict. In the end, Haemon kills himself for being conflicted about his love and his father, his mother kills herself for losing her son, and Antigone kills herself to avoid being buried alive for disobeying Creon.
