In <em>Essay on Man,</em> Pope discusses the relationship between men and God. He argues that men cannot hope to learn God's reasoning behind his creation of the world. Therefore, they can only trust that he has done what is best, and accept the outcome.

Pope is concerned that, with the advancement of science, people are becoming overly arrogant, and they think they are "imitating God." However, this arrogance only makes us fools and diminishes the purity of our spiritual essence. He says: "Know then thyself, presume not God to scan/The proper study of Mankind is Man." Men should focus on the study of men, and not on the questioning of God.

In Alexander Pope's Essay on Man, the speaker talks about how God has created a world that is best for humankind. He also talks about how the universe is all-embracing and that everything is right and good. Even though a person is driven by the wrong reasons, he can learn to develop good practices out of it or eventually change to something good.

Answer: D. the blending of pagan and Christian traditions.

Explanation:

<em>Beowulf </em>is a famous Old English Epic poem, and also the longest preserved Old English poem. It tells a story about a Geatish hero called Beowulf, and his fight against the monster, Grendel, and his mother.

Throughout this poem, there is a mixture of pagan elements such as fate, pride, and revenge and Christian faith. There are many references to the Bible and God. This mixture is not unusual, because the Anglo-Saxons practiced paganism until they converted to Christianity in the seventh century.
