In the Odyssey, Circe, daughter of Helios, is a witch who transforms the main character's crew into pigs when they eat a feast. One of them, a cautious man, sees what happens to the others and warns Odysseus about it.

On his way to Circe's, Odysseus is met by the god Hermes, who gives him a magic herb called moly. By eating it, Odysseus won't turn into a pig. He is also instructed to overpower Circe when she draws her sword and to make her swear not to harm him. After giving Odysseus her word, Circe agrees to restore his men to their human state and invites them to stay with her. They stay for a year and Odysseus and Circe become lovers. She ends up becoming a valuable character, for she predicts much of what will happen to Odysseus and instructs him about it.

Proctor knows that abigail Williams is a fraud. What conflicts cause him to hesitate about revealing this knowledge?

Grace [21]

I adore The Crucible, and I'm actually excited to find a question about it here (I'm sad, I know). One of the only plays that has made me cry!

Abigail Williams and John Proctor have engaged in an affair prior to this. Proctor evidently still has feelings for Abigail, despite everything, and thus has some hesitation towards revealing her as a liar and a fraud. Him revealing such things would also lead to the exposing of their affair, thus exposing his own wickedness. Equally, although he engaged in adultery, Proctor still sees himself as a Christian man. To implicate the seemingly young and innocent Abigail in such business would taint this, both for himself and in the eyes of the court and community. His place in the community is all he's got left, really, and encompasses most of his identity.

dexar [7]

Answer:

If George was so fed-up of Lennie, he would have got many chances to leave her. However, he is not actually mad at Lennie and supports her even when she displays child-like behavior. He was just tired and thus he yelled over Lennie to bring out his frustration.

Explanation:

In the first chapter of "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck, the complicated but strong relationship of George and Lennie was explained. Lennie was very much dependent upon George due to her childish nature. George yells at Lennie for her stupid acts and dreams of a Life where he is free of responsibilities. However, this is a natural thought of every person who has to look after another people 24/7.

The important thing is this relationship of George and Lennie is their strong friendship which stand through test of time. As the story ensues, George came to know the sanctity of his friendship with Lennie as their bond is a blessing in this lonely world. Therefore, George never thought to get rid of Lennie as she is always there for him in dark times.
