The correct answer is A. She used concrete imagery to illustrate abstract concepts, such as love and death.

Explanation:

The excerpt presented explains important features about the poetry of Emily Dickinson, in the case of the sentence (11) this refers to the way Dickinson uses concrete imagery as "Concrete imagery was used by her to illustrate abstract concepts, such as love and death". In terms of style, this sentence needs to be rewritten because the use of the passive voice rather than the active voice interrupts the flow of the text, also as the sentences that surround this sentence are in the active voice, the use of passive voice is inappropriate. considering this, the best way to rewrite this sentence is "She used concrete imagery to illustrate abstract concepts, such as love and death" because this solves the issue with the passive voice and also preserves the original idea keeping the flow and formal style of the text.

Who made Tiresias blind, and who felt guilty about it and gave Tiresias the gift of knowing everything
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

1. <u>Who made Tiresias blind?</u>

Tiresias was blind from his youth. He was perhaps the best known soothsayer from Thebes. As already stated, there are different traditions as to why he was blind.

One tradition says that he was blinded by the gods for revealing things to mankind that were for the gods alone. Another tradition states he was blinded by Athena for seeing her bathing naked. His mother prayed to Athena to restore his sight. Athena could not restore his sight, but instead gave him inner sight, or the ability to prophesy.

A final tradition states that Tiresias was walking and saw a male and female snake copulating. He struck at them killing the female serpent. For punishment he was turned into a woman. Seven years later he saw another pair of serpents and killing the male snake he was turned into a male. Having lived the life of both a woman and man, Zeus and Hera came to him in their dispute over who had more pleasure in sex. Tiresias said the woman enjoyed sex more. Outraged, Hera blinded him. Zeus rewarded Tiresias with prophecy and long life.

2. <u>Who felt guilty about it and gave Tiresias the gift of knowing everything?</u>

<u>Athena</u> didn’t give him back his sight. But to make up for the punishment, she gave him the gift of divination. She assured him that he wouldn’t lose it, even in death. Tiresias’ transsexuality. The second of the best-known versions of Tiresias’ origin says that he was walking in the fields one day when he saw two snakes mating.

Zeus, feeling sorry that Tiresias was blinded, gave him the gift of prophecy.

Zeus gave Tiresias the gift of second sight. Not surprisingly, from then on Tiresias lived the live of a reclusive ascetic - emerging only when there was a crisis in Thebes that needed his gifts.
