English

vivado [14]3 years ago
5 0

Read this excerpt from “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe.

One night, returning home, much intoxicated, from one of my haunts about town, I fancied that the cat avoided my presence. I seized him; when, in his fright at my violence, he inflicted a slight wound upon my hand with his teeth.

How does the author use symbolism in this passage to develop a clear idea

of the narrator's character?

Answer:

From the passage, the symbolism of the black cat symbolises the soul of the narrator which is dark, destroyed and decaying.

The black cat is symbolic because of its meow which draws attention to the wall and also the sickening pleasure the narrator has because he thinks he has gotten away with what he has done.

How does Odysseus outwit and escape Circe? Who helps him in the first place?
Harrizon [31]

Answer: With this, since Odysseus is now master, Circe at once turns his men from pigs back into men and allows them to dine with them as humans should. And being men, they could not help consenting. All expect Eurylokhos, who remains shrewdly dubious, enough that he challenges Odysseus.
