Answer:

Icarus' personal challenge is to overcome his stubbornness, his adventurous spirit and remember to obey his father's instructions.

The personal challenge of Daedalus is to learn to judge his inventions and to see if they are dangerous or not, in addition, Daedalus will have to face the fury of King Minos.

Explanation:

Icarus was the son of Daedalus, the brilliant architect and inventor who worked for King Minos on the island of Crete. It was Daedalus who designed the labyrinth where the fearsome Minotaur lived, and it was he who taught Princess Ariadne how to help Theseus in and out of the labyrinth without getting lost in its corridors.

After Theseus defeated the Minotaur, Daedalus was trapped in the labyrinth, along with his son, Icarus.

In order to escape, he had the idea of ​​making wings made of seagulls glued together with beeswax. And since he was a great inventor, his wings really worked and they both flew out of the labyrinth and fled from Crete.

But when he felt as free as a bird, flying through the heavens, Icarus thought he was as powerful as a god and flew higher and higher, not listening to the advice of his father, who warned of the danger of such a daring flight.

The punishment for boldness was not long. Little by little, the heat of the sun was melting the wax and taking off the feathers, undoing the wings. Unable to help his son, Daedalus watched in horror as Icarus plummeted from the heights into the Aegean Sea, where he drowned.

Which best explains Melville’s reason for describing how the sight of Ahab causes “foreboding shivers” in the narrator at the be
Llana [10]

The correct answer is the first one: Melville is building a mood of suspense.


Long before Ahab appears in the story, there is an atmosphere of mystery about the captain of the ship. The owners call in the crew in while Ahab is absent. Ishmael is told that Ahab is a man of few words but deep meaning; from the first moment, it is clear that the captain has a complicated personality. He is an "ungodly, god-like" man who has attended colleges as well as he has been among cannibals. Ahab is ungodly because he refuses to submit to a higher power. He does not worship or even acknowledge that there are forces beyond himself. Ahab is god-like in the sense that he represents a higher power; perhaps he even wants to be considered as a God.


The mystery is deepened as Ahab remains in his cabin through the first days of the trip. Ishmael grows anxious, checking the area outside the captain's cabin whenever the narrator goes on watch. When Ahab finally appears, in this chapter 28, he is an imposing figure whose haunted look sends shivers Ishmael's spine.

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Carl Sandburg's poem “Grass” is an unusual war poem in that it personifies grass. In the personification, the grass directly addresses the reader, placing the human perspective to the side. For example, Sandburg writes, “Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo. / Shovel them under and let me work -- / I am the grass; I cover all.” Grass, like human beings, is abundant, and from the perspective of grass, human life seems unimportant, and is therefore dismissed. This personification acts as a metaphor for how humans are treated in war.
