Answer:

The character chosen was Beowulf, from the epic poem Beowulf. The poem was also the work used as the basis for the text below.

Explanation:

Literary works have the power to tell us an exciting and inspiring story, in addition to showing us moral and ethical values that we can carry throughout our lives and that can influence our personality and the type of person we want to be.

Beowulf is a character that fits well into the concept of a character that has values that are encouraged today in our society. Beowulf is a hero. He is committed to doing good and using all his qualities and privileges to help the most disadvantaged or those who are in a situation of exploitation that is very harmful for their survival. For this reason, he decides to be brave, noble and charitable to a population that is suffering at the hands of a terrible and evil being. To help this population, Beowulf uses his strength, his influence and his courage and manages to make a big difference in the lives of citizens.

We can use him as an example in our life and adopt the values he shows to fight against the injustices that are present in our society. Racism, xenophobia, homophobia, prejudice, authoritarianism and other things, are horrible displays that plague our society and cause harm to many people, but we can use our qualities and our freedoms and privileges to fight against this, even if it is not a problem that involves us. That way we will make a free, fair and happy society, just like Beowulf did.

Which of the following in an element commonly used to establish a film as a comedy? Dialogue Situations Physicality All of the a
Inessa [10]
<span>The correct answer is situations. A film may be have humorous dialogue or the use of physicality, but without funny situations, a film is not a comedy.

Note that physicality means physical humor, such as the kind used in The Three Stooges, where the characters were constantly getting physically injured. While physicality is funny, many comedies do not use physical humor at all. Therefore it is not an element commonly used to establish a film as a comedy.
</span>
Comedy may be found in the words spoken, the situations the characters are involved in, and physical actions. However, only humorous situations establish a film as a comedy.
