Answer:

I would say the correct answer is A. the sea. It can be seen as a symbol of life itself.

Explanation:

<u>A symbol as a figure of speech represents something that is above and beyond the literal meaning of the word.</u> For example, the sea here doesn't only refer to the actual Mediterranean sea that Odysseus is sailing through with his crew. <u>It represents life and its many troubles and ordeals.</u>

<u>Just like the sea, life is unpredictable and always on the brink of death.</u> Even though Odysseus is trying to maneuver through it with his sailor's skills, it still may prove impossible. Even when it seems that the coast (that is shelter, safe space) is near, the sea still has the power to draw him further away. By using this symbol, Homer implies that life is never peaceful and reliable. On the contrary - it is ultimately unsafe and absolutely beyond our control.

Explanation:  

Fortunata and Jacinta  

by Benito Pérez Galdós, Agnes Moncy Gullón (Translator, Introduction)

Rating details ·  1,269 ratings  ·  97 reviews  

Capturing a ninteenth-century Spanish world of political tumult and personal obsession, Benito Pérez Galdós's Fortunata and Jacinta tells of two women who love the same man unfailingly—one as his mistress, the other as his wife.

In this new and complete translation, Agnes Moncy Gullón presents the detailed realism, the diversity of character and scene that have placed Fortunata and Jacinta alongside the voluminous works of Charles Dickens and Honoré de Balzac. Galdós's Madrid, recast from his youthful wanderings through the city's slums and cafés, includes the egg sellers and faded bullfighters surrounding Fortunata as well as the quieter, sequestered milieu of Jacinta's upbringing. Through Juanito, the lover of both women, the writer reveals Spain as a variegated fabric of delicate traditions and established vices, of shaky politics and rich intrigue. In this vast and colorful world, resonant of Dickens's London and Balzac's France, Galdós presents his characters with a depth, ambiguity, and humor born of the multiplicity of his scene.

Galdós  novels enjoyed, for a time, a wide and attentive readership in Spain. As his reputation grew, however, hostility toward his achievements, envy of his success, and political squabbling hampered his progress, stalling his election to the Royal Academy and, in 1912, thoroughly derailing his nomination as Spain's candidate for the Nobel Prize.

Though the political controversies that surrounded Galdós's works have long been calmed, this translation by Agnes Moncy Gullón brings alive the tempestuous era in which he lived and wrote, allowing English readers to hear the percussive yet often melodic tones of nineteenth-century Madrid in the correct and casual speech of Jacinta, in the pretty but empty words of Juanito, and in the painfully proper, sometimes vulgar language of Fortunata.
