Answer:

Socrates was a Greek philosopher from Athens who is credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy, and as being the first moral philosopher of the Western ethical tradition of thought. An enigmatic figure, he authored no texts, and is known chiefly through the accounts of classical writers composing after his lifetime, particularly his students Plato and Xenophon. Other sources include the contemporaneous Antisthenes, Aristippus, and Aeschines of Sphettos. Aristophanes, a playwright, is the main contemporary author to have written plays mentioning Socrates during Socrates' lifetime, though a fragment of Ion of Chios' Travel Journal provides important information about Socrates' youth.

Plato's dialogues are among the most comprehensive accounts of Socrates to survive from antiquity, from which Socrates has become renowned for his contributions to the fields of ethics and epistemology. It is this Platonic Socrates who lends his name to the concepts of Socratic irony and the Socratic method, or elenchus. However, questions remain regarding the distinction between the real-life Socrates and Plato's portrayal of Socrates in his dialogues.

Socrates exerted a strong influence on philosophers in later antiquity and in the modern era. Depictions of Socrates in art, literature and popular culture have made him one of the most widely known figures in the Western philosophical tradition.

"She was a large woman with a large purse that had everything in it but hammer and nails." 1. ______ This quote gives us details
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Character

Explanation:

Authors will describe characters explicitly either by observation of another character or via a narrator. The purpose of this is to allow the reader to get to know the character intimately in order to use any behaviour that they display later as understandable based on how they were described when they were introduced.

Building the characters also allows the writer to engage the reader's emotions by giving the character likable, unlikable or relatable traits. These are often full of descriptive words and very intimate details about the Character that sometimes only they themselves will know.

Give some examples of how Margot is bullied by her classmates.
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The children locked up Margot in the closet and enjoyed the sun. They deprived her of the same experience and was let go only after the rains came back.

Explanation:

Ray Bradbury's<em> All Summer In A Day</em> is about how children in an elementary school in Venus experience the sun. The character of Margot is the protagonist, and she ends up being bullied because she was different, and had come from the earth.

The children in the school began to oppose whatever Margot say about the sun. Since she was different from them, they do not believe what she said. She was treated differently by them, owing to the fact that she had come just some 5 years back to Venus while they were born in the planet. They cornered her while the teacher was away, and put her in a <em>"closet, where they slammed and locked the door"</em>. Then they enjoyed the sun while she was still locked up in the closet, thus, depriving her of the experience.
