How does the structure of Whitman's poem the noiseless and patient spider contribute to the meaning of the poem

English
1 answer:
Leni [432]3 years ago
6 0
An extended metaphor provides the overarching structure for the poem. The speaker begins by describing a spider that “stood isolated,” but that “launch'd forth” its threads to make its web over and over again. The poem's second stanza then establishes that the spider is a metaphor for the speaker's soul.

What contribution did Isaac asimov make to the world of modern science
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: I do not know if this is a multiple choice question or not, but I would contend that through his numerous science works he broadly influenced modern science and sparked the interest, and even the fascination, of the public in the subject.

Explanation: American writer and university professor Isaac Asimov (1920-1992) wrote and edited hundreds of science-fiction and popular science books (and also books on many other topics) for the broad public, which made science and technology more accessible and understandable, and changed the way people thought about those disciplines. His view of robots was particularly influential: he humanized them and contributed to their depiction and their profusion in public culture.

Let's examine the options.

<u>a) the Greeks, unlike the Cyclops, value meeting each other</u>

This is the indirect sense we get from the passage, based on the way the Greeks express disdain toward the Cyclops for not meeting each other. The Greeks say the "Cyclopes have...no meeting, no consultation or old tribal ways" after calling them "giants, louts, without a law to bless them" and saying they live in ignorance.

<u>b) the Greeks shun meetings and consultation</u>

From the way the passage condemns the Cyclops for having "no muster and no meeting, no consultation...", we can tell the Greeks shun <em>not</em> having meetings and consultation. This option is wrong.

<u>c) the Greeks, unlike Cyclops, live alone in caves</u>

Based on the text - "Cyclopes have no muster and no meeting,...each one dwells in his own mountain cave" - Cyclops, not Greeks, are the ones living in caves. This option is wrong.

<u>d) the Cyclops have taught the Greeks the value of society</u>

We get the sense the Cyclops themselves don't know the value of society - in fact, they shut the world out ("each one dwells in his own mountain cave"). They are called ignorant louts "indifferent to what others do". This option is wrong.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

a) the Greeks, unlike the Cyclops, value meeting each other
