<em>Virgil is an appropriate guide for Dante at the beginning of "The Divine Comedy" because he is Dante's mentor and describes hell in the Aeneid. </em>When Dante enters Hell he is guided through the underworld by Virgil, who was a Roman Poet. Virgil wrote a heroic poem called "The Aeneid" in which talks about the descend into hell. Therefore by describing his poem and his work, Virgil works as Dante's mentor and guide through Hell and is an appropriate character to do so.

Answer:

- is Dante's mentor

- describes Hell in The Aeneid

Explanation:

Epic poets traditionally call on the Muses—patron goddesses of the arts—for inspiration. Dante, a Christian, cannot appeal to pagan gods but employs the Latin poet Virgil as guide.

Virgil is suited to guide Dante through Hell, for he described the underworld in Book 6 of the Aeneid.

The writings of James Baldwin and Zora Neale Hurston express different perspectives on black culture in America because _____.
bogdanovich [222]
We can use process of elimination to work out what the best answer is to this question. To fully answer it, however, it is helpful to make sure you know who each author is and what they are famous for. Both are African American writers that wrote about race and inequality.

For choice A, while they were born in different parts of the United States, that does not mean they were born in different cultures, so this is not the best choice.

For choice B, this is very true. Hurston focused mainly on the woman's role while Baldwin focused on the man's. This is a good choice for this question.

For choice C, we would need to see a more in depth excerpt or do research to fully determine if this is the best answer, but from what I know about the authors and looking over their biographies, it's safe to say that they had very similar ideas about racism in America.

For choice D, they both explore painful topics because they are exploring what racism and inequality is in general in America. Because of this, this choice is not the best answer.

Based on our elimination, choice B is the best option here.
