Prometheus and Frankenstein are related in the sensation that

A.

R.W. possesses advanced geographic knowledge as a result of his explorations, but he has sacrificed personal happiness to gain that knowledge.

Explanation:

RW is not entirely the focus of the novel and in fact is only a mouthpiece for the book for a small amount of the time.

The book is about Frankenstein and the monster but the theme of R W and his exploration of science counter balances quite frankly with that of Frankenstein.

Thus we can see how he has sacrificed personal happiness to gain that knowledge.

The terrible cost one pays for the sake of science is seen and compared to what is achieved for what is put up for the part and this comparison is rather dreary for him.

Both Wiesel's All Rivers Run to the Sea and Spiegelman's Maus relate events of the Holocaust
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A) From a Jewish survivor's perspective.

Explanation:

In <em>All Rivers Run to the Sea</em>, Elie Wiesel tells us about his own experience under Nazis oppression and gruesome treatment of the Jews. He is a Jew, a writer and a survivor of the Holocaust, so in his work, we can <em>experience </em>the very essence of what was going there. Though his works made him famous, he said that those honors are a burden because he would rather like that his sister Tsiporah stayed alive, that Holocaust did not happen and book left unwritten.

Artie Spiegelman used his father Vladek`s vivid memories for writing <em>Maus. </em>He made hours and hours of interviews which included prewar, war and after war period.  Vladek with his first wife Anja were first sent into segregated neighborhoods (ghettos) and then going through several Nazi camps. They tried to escape several times, but always unsuccessfully. In that time they had a young son Richie who they sent to a different ghetto to be with his aunt, but after she found out about sending them to the camp, she pois oned her children, Richie and herself. After the war, Anja was deeply disturbed and she committed sui cide. Vladek continued his life, but haunted by terrible past.

If you were going to analyze a claim, what would you do
hammer [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. I will first Identify the claim. The claim is sometimes stated in a very general way, then elaborated on throughout the essay.

2. I will next examine the claim for qualifiers; words like "some," "many," "most of the time," etc. It can sometimes be damaging to an argument to omit qualifiers, particularly if there are also no exceptions provided. It is up to you as a reader to determine whether the writer's unqualified claim is damaging to this particular argument.

3. I will then examine the claim for an exception. After looking for qualifying words in the claim, the next step is to determine what the writer considers to be the situations in which the writer's claim doesn't apply. In other words, it is necessary to identify any exceptions the writer makes to her claim.
