When Odysseus gives Polyphemus his real name, why does this cause trouble?

English
1 answer:
Sindrei [870]2 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is "Polyphemus then told his father Poseidon who had blinded him, and thus Odysseus and his crew suffered dreadfully from Poseidon's curse."

First, Odysseus told Polyphemus that his name was Nobody in order to prevent him from calling for help. This proves helpful when Odysseus blinds him and since he screams "Nobody is killing me" nobody helps him. But after Odysseus manages to blind him and escape, he admitts reveals his true name. This revelation allows Polyphemus to curse him and his father Poseidon sends a storm that wrecks Odysseus ship, and if he is able to arrive to Ithaca, the curse says that it will only be possible after spending years in the sea and losing all his companions.

What is the kigo in this haiku? "evening" "joy" "loneliness" "autumn".
Trava [24]

The kigo in this haiku is "autumn".

Let's understand what kigo is all about.

<h3>What is Kigo?</h3>

Kigo is known to be a word or phrase that is used to denote a particular season. It is used in the traditional forms of Japanese poetry.

Therefore, the season here is "autumn".

In an autumn kigo, it's seen that the days become shorter and the nights are longer. But still people are still warm enough to stay outside. The moon is usually visible at night during this season.

1. Why did King say that the country has defaulted on its promise to African Americans?
34kurt

Answer:

1

This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.

2

When a person feels desolate, he feels deserted, lonely, hopeless, and sad. When a location is desolate, there's almost nothing there.

5

Because "unearned suffering is redemptive." Both the release of God's people from slavery and the story of enduring life over death are powerful signs of how God does redeem suffering, sorrow, and sadness.
