The epic is a genre that exalt the courage and deeds of the hero. Achilles is an exemplification of the valour, and highly positive traits that an epic hero must have. All the adventures and deeds in the epic are told using an elevated style, option B, in order to magnify the actions of the hero, who is susceptible to external forces, the wrath or benevolence of the Gods, as we can read in "The Odyssey" and "The Illiad".

The correct answer is "elevated style".

This is because all of the other options do not belong to a true epic, and fit more with a satire. A true epic is supposed to be serious and present a great deed by the main hero or the heroes.

The two lovers seemed doomed from the day. Set up like a bowling pin, and knocked out the very way.
How could they live with out each other, not a peak nor a stare or a quick view of one another.
Cast down to the pits of Hades they remain, and not each and everyone nor wits are the same.
Eurydice once bit. Tragedy came in a lickety- Split.

O C. A character starts out innocent but eventually gains wisdom and

Answer:

D. A character has many adventures on his or her journey to get back

home

Explanation:

The common archetype from The Odyssey and The Wizard of Oz is that the protagonist or main character has a lot of adventures on their quest to get home.

In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy is taken to a fantasy land where she meets the Which of the North. She asks how she can get home and is told that the Wizard of Oz in Emerald City could help her.

On her way, she meets different characters and when they arrive they are told that the Witch of the West must be killed in order for their wishes to be granted. On their way, they are faced by the minions of the witch who knows they are coming. Eventually, she makes it home.

In The Odyssey, a warrior is stranded on his way home and meets with a lot of dangers and loss of his men and ships but eventually with the help of the gods, he makes it home to Ithaca.
