Answer:

The answer is indeed option C) personification.

Explanation:

The sentence "He clasps the crag with crooked hands" employs a figure of speech called personification. Personification is when an author gives a non-human thing - an object, an idea, an animal - attributes or features of a human. In this case, the pronoun "he" is being used to refer to an animal even though the correct pronoun would be "it". Also, the author chooses to use the word "hands" - a human body part - to refer to the eagle's "claws".

Personification because the eagle does not have hands like a human, it has claws.

Match the reformer to his or her contribution to the reformation movement
34kurt
Hello! I have found the names of the reformers and the options for the contributions from another source but I will just go over them one reformer at a time to avoid repetition!

Elizabeth I
Contribution: offered tolerance to Catholics as long as they showed loyalty to the English monarch

After the Religious Settlement of 1559 that crowned Queen Elizabeth I the Supreme Head of the Church, she faced pressure from the many Protestant refugees who wished for the queen to go against the Catholics which drove them away before her reign. However, she adopted a more careful approach and that is to tolerate all Catholics as long as they will just remain loyal to the monarchy.

John Wycliffe
Contribution: translated religious scripture into a language common people could understand

A professor at Oxford, Wycliffe believed that the current teachings of the Catholic Church go against what was stated in the Bible. Because of this, he decided to translate the manuscripts to English. The Bible was only available in Latin by then (a language not known by the common folks). He was then credited as the first producer of the hand-written English Bibles.

Martin Luther
Contribution: questioned the rightful extent of the pope’s religious authority

Martin Luther was the author of the very infamous "95 Theses" which mainly attacked the Catholic Church and its corruption particularly with the indulgences they are selling. He also believed that the main authority should go to the Bible. His work sparked the Protestant Reformation.

According to Ryan Buda why is Hrothgar, instead of Beowulf, the epic hero? *
kotykmax [81]

The characters of every story typically exhibit generalized traits that are collectively called archetypes. the traits of an archetype combine with events in the story to convey to the reader a particular moral or ethical message. One such archetype is the epic hero, who is often characterized by a connection to the gods and typically more physically and mental gifted than other characters in the story. The epic hero archetypes also find themselves on a quest or a voyage fraught with adversity and must overcome it in a way that highlights the moral ideal or value of their society. For years, Beowulf has been described as a prime example of the epic hero archetype. Dictionary.com gives Beowulf as an example in its definition of the term and enotes uses examples from the story of Beowulf to elaborate on the characteristics of epic heroes, so the belief is deeply ingrained.

The Epic Hero Archetype Fails to Explain Beowulf's Actions


But a closer look at the facts reveal a problematic shortsightedness in this assessment. An analysis of Beowulf’s history, his personal feats of strength and triumph over Grendel and Grendel's mother are epic, indeed. Yet the story doesn’t end there. After all the events that highlight the characteristics indicative of a epic hero transpire, Beowulf, now in his old age, unwisely fights a disgruntled dragon by himself and pays with his life. Nothing in the archetype of an epic hero justifies this reckless lack of judgement.
