Answer:

The quality that the lines present is the sadness of Odysseus.

Explanation:

Odysseus is the king of Itaca and is married to Penelope with whom he had a son. He is very satisfied with the family life he has and wants to take care of his family, however, he needs to leave, when his son is still a baby, to fight together Greek nobles in the Trojan war. Odysseus wishes to return home and reunite with his family, and when the Trojan War ends, he begins the journey home, but this journey lasts 17 years and he engages in several adventures before he is able to return. Although the adventures distract him and he presents moments of happiness, lines 39-48 of "The Odyssey" show how sad he is to be away from his family and misses his wife and son a lot, which he never even saw grow up. This characteristic is important because it humanizes the character and shows him as a hero who has weaknesses like a normal human being.

aliya0001 [1]
Our Town by Thornton Wilder is a modernist play because it explores the transience of human life, in a sense that the characters in the play highlight the significance of the little things that they do in their daily lives. The play is also narrated through the view of a stage manager which openly tells the audience about how the stage is designed and what each prop is meant for. The stage manager is a character both inside and outside the play which blurs the wall between the reality that what the audience is about to see is fictional, and the fiction that the play is supposedly real in the character's point of view. This characteristic of the play destabilizes the line between fact and fiction and is considered a modernist play based on that setting itself, among all other themes of the play.

Alexxx [7]

Answer: hope this helps :)

Explanation:

I hear the ferocious wind howl with pride

the sky timidly poured, and as it cried

the sun fell like a leaf from a tree entering winter

causing chaos cutting deep like a splinter

I know it's rough but if I dare to be so bold

this weather is killing me, its far too cold

for unlike winter, summer is a kind neighbor

it has a warm heart and doesn't shy from a favor

the spring and fall are beautiful in between

not given enough attention by far but still seen

though leaves fall and colors change and fade

the sun will rise again and come out from the shade
