The answer is the first one.

In "Writers often disavow the notion of a 'literary duty'" the author conveys a somewhat condescending attitude, as if they would always follow this and set aside anyone who said otherwise. This attitude says the author is looking down on them, and that the author believes that many authors do not meet their standards.

Another answer I would consider is "...writers ruined by their shrill commitments." However, there is no context or clear tone. The author could be mournful of the lost potential for all we know.

How are the sisters similar to other archetypal antagonists
MaRussiya [10]

According to a different source, this question refers to the play "Antigone."

In Antigone, we meet two sisters, Antigone and Ismene. The sisters have recently lost their two brothers. Normally, this would mean that the sisters will mourn them and give them the funeral rites that are traditional in this situation. However, Creon, the king of Thebes, has outlawed this.

The sisters are similar to other archetypal antagonists because they are diametrically opposed to each other. While Antigone believes that the right thing to do is to disregard the law and take care of her brothers, Ismene believes that the law is supreme and should not be trifled with.

Explanation:

The Jewish Holocaust was an event in history that lasted nearly five years. During WW2, the rise of an antisemitic and power-hungry leader resulted in the death of nearly 6 million Jewish people. But what were Hitler's reasons behind it? Some of his idealisms were rooted in people he looked up to (ex. Kar Lueger), but the most prominent reason was that a scapegoat was needed for Hitler to pin the blame on for all of what was going on in Germany at the time. Prior to WW2, the population of Jewish People in Europe was nearly 9 million people. 6 million died from the Holocaust, which left a striking 3 million left in Europe after the tragic events of the war. The word Holocaust has greek origins, with a prefix that means 'burnt sacrifice to God. In the bible, the reason that burnt sacrifices no longer had to be offered (Circa the Old Testament) was that Jesus had been crucified. Jewish people follow only the old testament, so they would have still performed said burnt sacrifices in the times of the Temple Of Jerusalem.
