Answer: A. Both poems suggest a form of life after death that should not be feared.

Explanation:

In the poem 'Song of myself' , from Whitman's collection Leaves of Grass, Whitman describes death as a new beginning, a return to life. In the poem, he states that “…to die is different from what any one supposed, and / luckier.” He suggests that people should not be afraid of death.

In 'Because I Could Not Stop for Death', Emily Dickinson presents death as a spiritual rebirth. She describes her journey from life to afterlife, accompanied by Death. Death is personified in this poem and is not intimidating at all. He is a very generous guide and makes her journey a rather pleasing experience.

Both the authors support the same idea - that death should not be feared, as it leads to nothing but a life after death.

Which is the best example of a tragic impulse from shakespeareâs the tragedy of macbeth?

GrogVix [38]

I believe it is the witches' prophecy, at the very beginning of the tragedy. It fuels Macbeth's ambitions, so that the drama may unfold.

A tragic impulse is an event which inspires a character to undertake morally problematic actions with destructive consequences. Eventually, it leads to the character's downfall.

Thanks to the prophecy that Macbeth would be the king but Banquo would father kings, Macbeth realizes that he has no choice but to kill king Duncan. That is the moment when his tragedy begins, and when he enters the magic circle of crime. Later on, he has to have Banquo killed, to prevent him from fathering kings.
