Excerpt from A Defence of Skeletons

English
2 answers:
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]3 years ago

Answer:

C, He maintains that the fear of death and skeletons is irrational and should be conquered.

Explanation:

Here is what in the text makes me believe this.

  • "So he is <em>mysteriously</em> ashamed of the skeleton of himself in death." He finds it mysterious to why people are ashamed or afraid of skeletons.
  • "One would think it would be most unwise in a man to be afraid of a skeleton..." His reflection upon the fear of skeletons.
  • "A man might as well say that a factory chimney was typical of bankruptcy." I interpret this as making fun of the fear of skeletons.
  • "There is no reason why this creature... the living skeleton, should not become the essential symbol of life." I think he's proclaiming that skeletons deserve more credit.

Hopefully this helps. Sorry my response was so long. Good luck.

Does reading literature help build empathy?
Natali5045456 [20]
Literature is a work of art.


It helps build emotions, empathy, sympathy, laughter-you name it. Empathy simply means to understand someone's position. In stories empathy is key for readers to relate about fictional or non about their lifestyle, Charisma and personal ways in non issues.
