Answer and Explanation:

Irony happens when the outcome of events turns out to be the opposite of what was expected.

<u>It is ironic that Michelangelo's father would fear his son's failure. He even scolded him for pursuing arts instead of academic studies. Why is it ironic? Because Michelangelo (1475 - 1564) not only did not fail, but he was such an amazing artist that his name remains as one of the most famous in the world. His expertise was such that he is seen by many as a rival of Leonardo Da Vinci, since they both developed their knowledge and abilities in several different fields. Michelangelo is probably most famous nowadays for his frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, in Rome. He was also an incredible sculptor - David being one of his greatest works.</u>

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Hi! I am afraid that your question is incomplete because you forgot to mention which book are you talking about. But, I did a little research on the Internet and I think I am able to answer it correctly.

From the options given, the one that best analyzes how Shaw draws upon the work of the Roman poet, Ovid, is A: Like Ovid's main character, <em>Shaw's main character portrays a level of disdain for women.</em>

Explanation:

First, let's say that we are talking about <em>Pygmalion</em>, by George Bernard Shaw, a play published in 1913. <em>Pygmalion</em> derives its name from the famous story in Ovid's <em>Metamorphoses</em>, in which Pygmalion feels disgusted by the loose and shameful lives of the women of his era. Due to this feeling, he decides to live alone and unmarried.

In this case, like Pygmalion (the main character from <em>Metamorphoses</em>), <u>the main character feels disgusted by them -women-, that is why the correct answer is A. </u>
