Answer: “The peaceful struggle”

Explanation: The phrase “peaceful struggle” is an oxymoron because the meanings of the words contradict each other. Something that is peaceful is something that is rid of any complication or worry, and to struggle is to face a conflict (or forcefully attempt to break away from one). Because of this, the figure of speech used in this sentence is an oxymoron.

What does the morality play Everyman say about fate and free will? Develop a short response using examples from the text to supp
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The morality that "Everyman" presents is that free will allows individuals to create their destiny, but that they are not controlled, nor dependent on that destiny, thus being free.

Explanation:

"The Somonyng of Everyman" is a play that was written to promote Christian values and as such, reflects that God does not have his children and servants as slaves, because God made humans to be free and to own their own destinies and decisions. With that, we can see that the protagonist, Everyman, who represents humanity, makes his own decisions, decides which paths to follow, who to face and who to make friends with. With that, Everyman demonstrates the domain of free will and the ability to build his destiny, but without depending on it and adapt as necessary.

Which figures of speech appear in this excerpt from John Keats’s “Ode to Autumn”?
taurus [48]

Answer: personification and alliteration

Personification refers to the use of human qualities to describe animals, inanimate objects, abstract ideas or natural phenomena. In this case, the author gives "autumn" qualities that belong to humans, such as "sitting careless on a granary floor."

Alliteration refers to the repetition of identical initial consonant sounds, even when spelled differently. It is also called "initial rhyme." In this case, the author uses alliteration when he says "winnowing wind."
