Answer:

This shows that the citizens of Thebes see the king as someone who does not appease fights and disputes within the family itself.

Explanation:

The dispute between Oedipus and Creon occurs when when Creon tells Oedipus about the words of the prophet, regarding the death of the former king of Thebes. Creon claims that the prophet said that the king's killer is in the city and needs to be captured and expelled, or the plague that has settled in the city will never end. Oedipus, who is the king, is already suspicious about his involvement in the death of the former king of Thebes and this is making him very upset. He begins to believe that Creon is conspiring with the prophet to drive him crazy and therefore states, in an irate way, that he will kill Creon.

Thebes people know about this episode and for this reason they tell Jocasta that the king was not innocent, but someone unbalanced and that he cannot calm conflicts.

This question is about the story "Oedipus king" that tells the story of Oedipus and the profession that he would kill his own father and marry his own mother.

I myself have ready books.<br><br> Is this Reflexive or<br> Intensive
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The answer should be reflexive

Explanation:

Because if you cut 'myself' out, it doesn't really make sense. A reflexive sentence is usually like, 'I myself went out to the mall last night'. If you cut myself out of this sentence it would become, 'I went out to the mall last night' which still makes a lot of sense. In the statement, 'I myself have ready books', when you cut out 'myself' it becomes, 'I have ready books' which does not really sound right to me. So it would be a Reflexive pronoun!!!! If it makes sense when you remove a 'self' statement then it is an Intensive pronoun. If it does not make sense, then it isn't.

Hope this helped.

The tunnel in the story can best be said to be symbolic of the ?
puteri [66]

It depends on which tunnel from which story you are referring to.

If the story is Through the Tunnel, by Doris Lessing, then probably the tunnel refers to the passage to adulthood. The protagonist of the story goes through a lot of difficulties during his adolescent life into adulthood, which is symbolically depicted with the image of a tunnel.

Use the poem to answer the question. (Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “Ozymandias”)
frez [133]

Answer:

E. The phrase “sneer of cold command” reflects Shelley’s idea that a king may harm his subjects.

Explanation:

Lines 10-11, "'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:  / Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' ", there are no terms, in the poem, to make the tone feel fearful about the king.

Line 4, "Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, " the poem does not set whether the king is attractive.

Line 1 and 14, "I met a traveller from an antique land... The lone and level sands stretch far away."  These do not show a desire to be away.

Line 8, "The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: " the hand was the sculpture's hand and the poem doesn't state whether or not the kind mistreated the artist by having him build a huge statue of himself.

Line 5, "And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, " shows that the sculpture didn't favor the king making him look older and less desirable as if he is to harm his people.
