Lady bird [3.3K]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

I think his way of asking is about the isolation and transformation of death.

Explanation:

He is stuck in a pattern of despondency over the loss of his younger sibling, he can't understand his passing and can't discover his way back to investment in the public arena without  getting some answers..

Holden longs to understand the cycle that the ducks follow, he somehow equates it with a sense of eternity, where life is renewed each and every spring.

How is Canterbury cathedral related to the story of Thomas a Becket ?
olchik [2.2K]

The Canterbury Cathedral is related to Thomas a Becket because Becket was murdered there. Henry II made Becket his chancellor and the two became close friends. When the position of Archbishop became vacant, Henry II made Thomas a Becket the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Henry II wanted to reduce the power of the Church and established the Constitutions of Clarendon which allowed the King to punish a cleric found guilty by the Church. Becket refused to sign the Constitutions of Clarendon and was found guilty of treason. He fled to France and was only allowed to return when the Pope threatened to excommunicate Henry II. Upon his return, Becket excommunicated three bishops who supported Henry. This enraged Henry and he ordered his knights to kill Becket. 

On December 29, 1170, Becket was murdered at the altar of Canterbury Cathedral by four knights of King Henry II.

Please write a hypothesis to this question. Make it as detailed as possible. Thanks!
arsen [322]
Okay first off a hypothesis is YOUR opinion on a subject based on the observations YOU'VE made.
But mine is that our bodies are relatively new because as a race of people we are constantly evolving over periods of time.
