What element of a myth is featured in the title “The Beginnings of the Maasai”?

English

Arlecino [84]3 years ago

Answer:

an attempt to explain an origin

Explanation:

The myths configure narratives - which began to be used in ancient Greece - that aim to explain facts of reality and phenomena of nature.  The symbolism and often naivety surrounding the myth is linked to the fact that at that time the Greeks used them to seek explanations for the origin of the universe and human life, things they did not quite understand.

This attempt to explain the origin of something is the element of a myth we find in "The Beginning of the Maasai"

Andrew [12]

Answer and Explanation:

Gregor is the main character in the book "The Metamorphosis", by Franz Kafka.

Consider Gregor as a person. What was life like for him before his metamorphosis, at home, and on the job?

Gregor leads a boring and exhausting life as a traveling salesman. He hates his job and despises his boss. The only reason why he does not quit is the fact that he is working to help his parents pay off their debts. But even though he is such a filial son, life at home is not any more interesting. Gregor is not specially loved or cherished.

In what ways do you think Gregor was like a "bug" even before his metamorphosis?

As we can see, Gregor is insignificant - like a bug. His life seems to have little purpose other than suffering of boredom and daydreaming about quitting his job. He has nothing to live for and no one who absolutely cares about him. Thus, in a way, he is already like a bug. We often notice there is a bug around. We take a look at it and then ignore it, since it is of no importance to us. It seems that this is how the other characters feel about Gregor.

"The Metamorphosis" is generally read as an allegorical tale, meaning that the events symbolize a more general human condition in modern society. What do you think Gregor's transformation represents?

His transformation represents what life is like to most of us in modern society - meaningless. We do not work to live, but live to work. Instead of being perceived as complex, colorful human beings, full of dreams, feelings, ideas, and purposes, we are regarded as machines, only valuable when we can do our jobs, but readily disposed of when we cannot.

rewona [7]

Answer:

Yes, Lincoln's death affected Douglass.

Explanation:

Both Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass wanted to abolish slavery. They both were fighting a common fight which had divided the nation.

Douglass always looked up to Lincoln and his ways. They both even spoke about abolishing slavery from the nation completely. So, after Lincoln's death, Douglass had lost a friend. Still he carried out Lincoln's work speaking against social injustice and racial discrimination. He demanded equal rights for African Americans.

Thus, Lincoln's death was also a calamity for the nation as African-Americans had lost a leader who led them fighting for their rights and justice.
