Who is the ferryman of the underworld?

English
1 answer:
frutty [35]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Charon

Explanation:

In Greek mythology, Charon or Kharon is a psychopomp, the ferryman of Hades who carries souls of the newly deceased across the rivers Styx and Acheron that divided the world of the living from the world of the dead. A coin to pay Charon for passage, usually an obolus or danake, was sometimes placed in or on the mouth of a dead person. Some authors say that those who could not pay the fee, or those whose bodies were left unburied, had to wander the shores for one hundred years. In the catabasis mytheme, heroes – such as Aeneas, Dionysus, Heracles, Hermes, Odysseus, Orpheus, Pirithous, Psyche, Theseus and Sisyphus – journey to the underworld and return, still alive, conveyed by the boat of Charon.

Answer the following questions using the article Titled “Achieving Critical Thinking Skills through Reading Short Stories” by Mo
Elenna [48]

Critical thinking refers to the ability to establish reflective reasoning in the most diverse situations, allowing the individual to make specific observations that help him to reach concrete and precise conclusions.

Critical thinking is a skill and as such it must be stimulated constantly, so that the practice in reasoning and reflection is increasingly improved. It is favorable that this stimulation is carried out since the individual is a child, so that in adulthood there is no problem getting used to complex and intricate concepts. One way to stimulate this type of racism is through reading, which manages to force the brain to think, unravel problems, create arguments and ideas.

Therefore, we can conclude that critical reasoning empowers the individual, who can quickly discern right and wrong things regardless of the environment in which he finds himself, thus preventing him from being deceived or lubricated at any time in his life.
