The speaker in Sonnet 18 by Petrarch uses negative words and phrases throughout the sonnet to express the fact that he was unable to put in words how gorgeous his beloved one was.

During the time he wrote this sonnet he was passing by a writers' block and he was incapable to show his beloved Laura how beautiful he thought she was by words so he repeats in many ways that there's nothing that can describe, capture or equal her beauty.

Why does the Cyclops invite Odysseus back to the island?
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

He realizes that Odysseus was destined to take his eye.

Explanation:

The epic narrative "The Odyssey" by Homer is about the journey of Odysseus and his men after the Battle of Troy. Their journey would lead them through encounters with mortals, gods, demons, monsters, etc. testing their very being.

In the given excerpt from the epic, the Cyclops admitted that Odysseus was destined to inflict the physical wound in his eye. He revealed, <em>". . . he foretold for time to come: my great eye lost, and at Odysseus' hands. . ."</em> But what he didn't expect was that Odysseus would be <em>"small, pitiful and twiggy"</em>. Nevertheless, he accepted his fate and invited Odysseus to come back to the island.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

How could Beethoven compose music despite his loss<br>of hearing?​
Bad White [126]

Answer:

He could still “hear” in his head. All he had to do was transcribe what he “heard” and knew onto staff paper. Composers do not need to physically hear the music they are writing—they know how it will sound. Basically he already knew the basics of music, and so used his head in place of his ears.
