Answer

D. The king requests that Perseus bring him medusa's head.

Explanation:

Of the numerous famous mythologies, the story of Perseus and Medusa is one of the most significant. Greek mythologies rely heavily on the gods and their demi-god off springs. Persues is also one such demi-god, the son of Zeus and Danaë.

Danaë's father had been warned by an oracle that his grandson from Danaë will kill him and take his place as king of Argos. In order to stop this from happening, he imprisoned her. But Zeus still impregnated her, resulting in Perseus. Afraid of actually killing a son of God, the king cast the mother-son duo into the sea where they were taken by a fisherman Dictys. Dictys's brother, the king of the land, wants to marry Danaë which Perseus didn't allow. So, Dictys planned for ways to get rid of Perseus.

He asked his men to bring gifts for him so that he will woo Hippodamia. He asked everyone to bring him horses, and he knows Perseus had none. So, Perseus offered to get him anything he requested. Dictys asked for the head of a Gorgon Medusa. This is the main conflict in the story of Perseus and Medusa.

Answer:

An argument can be made for all of the following EXCEPT:

The speaker is not the poet.

Explanation:

In every poem, the speaker is the voice behind the poem or the narrator of the story.  The speaker is created by the poet to voice out the poem. Therefore, the speaker is always treated as a fictional creation.  The speaker always chooses a point of view to tell the story.  The role of the speaker cannot be denied in a poem.  Without the speaker's voice, the story may sound passive and unenjoyable.  But the speaker imbues the story with some life, using an active voice.
