Why does Whitman call ship "grim and daring" in line 4?

English
1 answer:
hoa [83]2 years ago
7 0

Line 4: “Keel” has multiple meanings. The first is the part of the ship that goes along the underside that gives the ship stability in the water. This usage really doesn’t make much sense, though, because one can’t see a “steady keel” unless the boat has fallen over. The other use of keel here is as a synecdoche. The keel, a part of a boat, is used to represent the whole boat. More importantly, "the steady keel" lets us know that, despite its rough trip, the ship (like the nation) remains steadfast and true.

In the story, the faithful servant is the protagonist and the king is the antagonist. Why do you think these two characters fit
AVprozaik [17]

The characters will fit the descriptions of the protagonist and antagonist if:

  • The protagonist is the main character in the story who suffered the most obstacles. The King will be the antagonist if he inflicted pain on the servant who was the protagonist.

<h3>Who are the protagonist and antagonist?</h3>

A protagonist is the main actor in a play who suffers unjust treatment by some evil people. The story revolves around this protagonist and the steps he takes to overcome the trials that he or she faces. The antagonist, on the other hand, is the one who causes the protagonist anguish.

In the story of the Faithful servant and the King, we can see that the King subjected the servant to unjust treatment by letting him do difficult jobs in order to win the affection of the princess.

In the end, all of his schemes do not work out as he is impelled to know that he should cultivate the habit of working hard.
