Answer:

"She leveled her spear, and threw it with all her might. The boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin."

Explanation:

The line "She leveled her spear, and threw it with all her might. The boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin" shows how a girl is capable of accomplishing things that involve strength, skill, agility and courage. In addition, it shows a girl inserted in a situation considered masculine, for being something violent and with little grace. However, the girl has the ability to participate in the activity and do it admirably.

Answer:

"She leveled her spear, and threw it with all her might. The boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin."

Explanation:

In James Baldwin's "Old Greek Stories", one such story is that of Atalanta, the Fleet-Footed Huntress" of Arcadia. She had been abandoned in the forest by the orders of her father, the king of Arcadia at birth because of her gender and brought up first by wild bears and then by hunters.

The theme of gender discrimination is prevalent not only in this story but also in the society as a whole. Women are presumed to be the weaker sex while the men are supposed to be brave and do the hard work, go hunting etc. This shows the gender disparity which through Atalanta, this disparity was put into focus. Her decision to go on the hunt shocked the other men, who <em>"had never heard of such a thing as a girl going out with heroes to hunt wild boars." </em>But Atalanta showed that a person's gender is less significant compared to his/ her actions She strike the first wound and help kill the wild boar. During the hunt, she was the one who brought the boar to a standstill with her spear, making the "<em>boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin.</em>" This act shows that her actions matter more than what the men think of her and women and general.

What is the poem booked future about​
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

The different uses and perspectives around books, and the power they have in our future.

Explanation:

This poem by Celo Kulagoe, published in "Some modern poetry from the Solomon Islands" (1975) describes the way the Teacher, the Preacher, and the Dealer introduce her to books, and how the way she chooses to approach them might have a great impact on what the future hold for her.

For example, the preacher says to "follow this narrow trail," which might represent the limited scope of religion on knowledge and science, something that the author seems to want to avoid, as she longs for the wisdom provided by books.
