For his  crime, Prometheus is punished for eternity.  In Ernest Hemingway's novel The Old Man and the Sea, a fisherman  struggles for several days to reel in an enormous fish. When he finally

back to shore.

A. Stealing from the gods

B. Punishment for great deeds

C. The importance of courage

D. Turning against nature

The answer to this question is B. Punishment for great deeds

In the case of the myth, the character deed is to steal the ability to make fire; while in the novel the deed is to catch a big fish. Moreover, each of these deeds is followed by a punishment because both Prometheus and the fisherman are penalized after their deed, this includes punishment for eternity in the case of Prometheus and loss of the fish in the case of the fisherman. According to this, the option that describes a common motif (repeated symbol or idea) is B.

ANTONII [103]

This question is about "Young Goodman Brown"

Answer:

The reality presented by the author means that the character does not know if what he is experiencing is a dream or not. The reader also has this doubt, which ends up creating the mystery of the work.

Explanation:

"Young Goodman Brown" is set in Salem at the time of the witch hunt in the region. In this story, Goodman Brown leaves his family for a mysterious mission in the forest. In this mission, the author exposes the discrepancy between the goodness and the badness of the human being, portraying a complex, fragmented and symbolic reality, which makes Goodman Brown unable to know whether he is dreaming or not. This mystery is so wide open that it infects even the reader.

Is this written well?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The subject of war can be both delicate and contentious. Many people have different views and perspectives on this topic as well as personal experiences. A war like the Vietnam War changed many people's lives and caused harm to their homes, livelihoods, and so on. This conflict lasted from 1955 to 1975. Many people influenced by the Vietnam War wrote books, essays, and other types of art to explain and tell about their memories and perspectives on the war. Former Vietnam soldier Tim O'Brien claims in "The Things They Carried" that war can be both frightening and peaceful, albeit in "Condemnation"
