Which best describes the effect of the metaphor on the overall meaning in

English
1 answer:
ryzh [129]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Since the excerpt isn't there I can't give an exact answer. I don't think it's A or D because D is describing what a simile does, whereas A is leaning more towards personification instead of a metaphor.

A simile is a figure of speech that directly compares two unlike things

A metaphor allows writers to convey vivid imagery that transcends literal meanings, creates images that are easier to understand and respond to than literal language

Personification is the attribution of human qualities, characteristics, or behaviours to non-humans, be they animals, inanimate objects, or even intangible concepts.

Sorry I couldn't give you a direct answer, but I hope this helps!

What is a misdemeanor???
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a minor wrong doing

A misdemeanor is any "lesser" criminal act in some common law legal systems. Misdemeanors are generally punished less severely than more serious felonies, but theoretically more so than administrative infractions and regulatory offences. Typically misdemeanors are punished with monetary fines or community service.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

These lines come from American poetry in the 19th century. This is an epic poem called "The Columbiad" made by Joel Barlow in 1807. The author wants to show how U.S. citizens imagine their national identity by stating good principles for a good nation. In his ideas, he attempts at social, cultural and political emancipation. In the first lines "Purge all privations from your liberal code, restore their souls to men, give earth repose, And save you sons from slavery, wars, and woes" the author's argument is to seek for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In order to achieve that he believes that slavery should be abolished so the United States will be purge of the crime of slavery. He believes in freedom, in a new country with good foundations for liberty and progress.

In the next lines "Based on its rock of Right your empire lies; On walls of wisdom let the fabric rise; Preserve your principles, their force unfold. Let nations prove them and let kings behold." the author argument is the same, he is constantly searching for liberty in his ideas, he thinks that the United States should end slavery by eliminating slavers and masters. This idea is important specially because the author believes in a republic society that can't failed. He constantly  says that slavery is barbaric and it doesn't fit in a democratic new world. For a good nation it's necessary to have good principles, wisdom and liberty as well as good citizens with a new mind that means without the european tradition and slavery.
