B. deux ex machina
C. Satire
D. Etymology
E. Characterization
Explanation:
Setting does not only refer to the place where the story or event occurred, it also refers to the time period and sometimes the mood as well. It helps to establish the circumstances in which the event had occurred. It also support reasons to as to why events unfolded the way they did.
Deux ex machina means "god from the machine", coined by the Greeks. As a literary device, it is when a character or an event is introduced to resolve the conflict of the story, when the story seems unsolvable. People debate whether this is a good literary device, as it seems like a last-ditch attempt of the writer to bring out a happy ending. Although, this device works well as a comedic twist.
Satire is a literary device that highlights the faults, short-comings, or vices of humans. The intent of the use of this literary device is to shame individuals or groups, by ridiculing their follies, as an attempt to improve them.
Etymology is the study of the history of words and how it has changed over time. It studies how words were derived or where they were derived from, tracing it back to the earliest period it was first used or when it occurred first.
Characterization is a literary deviced used to introduce a character. The author could directly describe the character as an introduction, describing their physical features and demeanor. The characters can also be described through the perspective of the character themselves, or even through other characters or interactions within the story.
Answer: I would actually disagree on this
Explanation: In America there was a time period where conscientious objectors were ordered by the government to vote. However, their denial to vote brought them severe prison time, torture and opposition. If 16 year olds could vote then people with religious beliefs or who are conscientious objectors would be bullied by political peers and such pressure could obligate them to go against their conscious and norms. From ages 16 to 18 a person is too young to commit the right decisions without a person actually influencing them. A person is capable of thinking for themselves without outward influences when they are about 21 and up. Also, voting is not necessary, it’s simple tradition. It’s a superficial thing, people think they choose the president but in reality it’s the Supreme Court who makes that decision for you. You could fact check that if you attend a civics class or if you directly ask a representative from congress.
The statement that best describes how these themes interact in <em>Gilgamesh</em> is B) Gilgamesh's battle with Humbaba shows us that a hero needs help to reach glory.
Enkidu, who is a good friend of Gilgamesh, has an important role in the battle with Humbaba.<u> Enkidu is the one that encourages Gilgamesh to get rid of his fears and reminds him about the weapons that they have brought</u> to fight against Humbaba. Moreover, he urges him to ignore the demon's pleas and to kill him once and for all.<u> Enkidu has an important role because he is the one that gives Gilgamesh courage again to fight against Humbabu and reach glory</u>.
The prefix is ab, which is greek for "away" and the root is duc / duct which means lead, take, and bring and so the combined meaning would be to "bring away" or to take.
