Answer:

The Chorus Leader’s speech is an example of: <u>forshadowing. </u>

Explanation:

Forshadowing is a literaty device, that is well used in the story Oedipus, because the entire story is around it. The tragedy, the mistery, the impact of the story is about the fact that the future is been said, and awaits for Oedipus.

This literaty device is used by the author to give and advance to the reader of what is coming. This does not ruin expectation it creates more tension.

"I fear a disastrous storm" is a metaphor of what is about to come a terrible future ahead.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Im just gonna give a short paragraph you can go off of:

In this world there are many people who live in complete ignorance to the harsh truths of this world. They get to live happier, not knowing the real struggles people go through. While they get to spend their time and energy fighting for "their rights to not wear a mask" people are dying, staving, and fighting for their lives because of the extra stress we've been put under due to the pandemic. Though one might argue every single person is ignorant about some issues, the difference is some people actually want to change that. yes, being ignorant about the struggles black and brown people have to face makes ignoring the news a little easier. Not knowing about what lgbtq+ people have to go through makes going to church easier. But it only adds to these people suffering. Not doing anything, ignoring them, pretending its not happening, is just as bad as going out and being the reason its a problem.
