Who does the knight in “Eldorado” represent? What does Eldorado itself represent

History
1 answer:
EastWind [94]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Knight represents everyone who goes through life and searches for something ideal, and Eldorado represents those unreachable ideals.

Explanation:

<u>Knight represents everyone who is going through life and who is searching for someone.</u> The journey described in the poem is life, presented as an endless search for something better and greater symbolized in the glory and gold of Eldorado.

Therefore, <u>Eldorado itself presents some almost unreachable good, the ideals people hold and crave and search for their whole life.</u> In this poem and everyday communication, Eldorado is used as a symbol of yearning and symbol of the promised place.

Some analyses even think Poe saw Eldorado as the symbol of death – it is the place which knight can reach only after a long journey and suffering. This analysis is explained by the thought that <u>Ideal is unreachable.</u>  In the Christian tradition, ideal doesn't exist in this world, but only in the realms of heaven, which means after death.

Compare new city-states with the old city-states of mesopotamia. Identify 3 specific similarities and 3 specific deifferences
Elina [12.6K]

The 3 differences and similarities between the old and new city-states were:


Difference 1. The Old City States were developed around a proto-socialist economy which was mostly controlled by the government.


The new city States were more developed around personal enterprise where independent people could earn money.


Difference 2: Old city States had a social structure that consisted of a 'Farmer' class which worked in the plantations. In the new city States, this work was conducted by poor people who could earn a living or get food return. The work was not dependent on a 'specific' class of people anymore.



Difference 3: In the Old City States, the status of governing officials was based on wealth and power. In the new City States, the Kings had succession plans and power was inherited from father to son.


Similarity 1: Both city States were far from democracies and power was concentrated in the hands of a very few people.


Similarity 2: Most of the work was done by people who were basically poor. Either as farmers, peasants or slaves.


Similarity 3: Both cities were vulnerable during times of floods, droughts and natural disasters. They were eventually overrun by powerful nomads.
