Answer:

The author develops the theme of shame and guilt through the economic condition of Gregor's family.

Explanation:

Hello. You forgot to say that this question is about "Metamorphosis."

In "Metamorphosis" we are introduced to Gregor Sansa who one day wakes up transformed into a giant insect. Gregor cannot work in this state, as he can barely stand.

Gregor lives with his parents, his sister and his wife and is the only one who works, being the person responsible for the family's economy. However, when Gregor becomes an insect, he is no longer able to supply the family's economic needs, besides needing their constant help. In this scenario, the author develops the theme of shame, since Gregor feels a burden, and develops the theme of guilt, since Gregor feels guilty that the family is in need.

PLEASE HELP! TRUE OR FALSE! According to Coleridge in his Biographia Literaria, it is legitimate to call any composition compose

tresset_1 [31]

True

In Coleridge's Biographia Literaria, he says that it is legitimate to call any composition composed using rhyme and meter a poem. In the text he says, "If a man chooses to call every composition a poem, which is rhyme, or measure, or both, I must leave his opinion uncontroverted." He goes on to repeat this when he says, "the composition will be a poem, merely because it is distinguished from composition in prose by metre, or by rhyme, or by both conjointly." In both of these he asserts that a poem is a composition with rhyme and meter.
