Well, this is obviously a matter of opinion, but personally, I would not want to go through Odysseus's experiences. He suffered a lot trying to get home to Ithaca.
On the other hand, Odysseus's ordeal was no doubt an adventure! He fought monsters and had to use his great cunning to think his way out of sticky situations. It depends on what you think.
Answer:
It is a direct and eloquent plea delivered in Washington for the equal treatment of all Native Americans.
Explanation:
Chief Joseph was a <em>Native American</em> who belonged to a tribe in the <em>Pacific Northwest region of the U.S.A.</em> He fought for his people and their ancestral lands <u>against the white settlers</u>. But later on, he surrendered and was moved to the state of Washington.
In Washington D.C., he delivered his speech at the<em> Lincoln Memorial Hall </em>asking for the equal treatment of all Native Americans, just as the white people are being treated. He just wanted the Native Americans to be treated just as the rest of the men were treated with the freedom to travel, trade, work, shop, etc. as long as they obey the law.
So, this explains the answer.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": The word "his" makes the story smoother to read in English.
Explanation:
Jewish writer Franz Kafka (1883-1924) born in Austria-Hungary used to write in German. In his worldwide well-known "<em>Metamorphosis</em>" (1915) exposes the story of Gregor Samsa, a salesman who overnight becomes a giant insect. In German, Gregor refers to his parents as of "the mother" and "the father" because those are terms normally used in that culture. However, for translation purposes, it was changed to "his mother" and "his father" so English readers would smoothly continue with the flow of the lecture.
Answer:
The literary movement or sub-genre that matches with the literature - The sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is Early American and Colonial Literature. The right answer is Option A.
Explanation:
Sermons were written in plain style rather than ornate d religious poetry. They focused on daily life, moral attitudes and political unrest. The literature was instructive as it reinforced the authority of the Bible and the Church in it. Fate was determined by God and all people are sinful and must be saved by the Christ - were the themes of this literary period. Puritanism started as an insult of traditional Anglicans to those who wished to "purify" the Church of England. Jonathan Edwards’s "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" had been written during this phase.
The motive of delivering this sermon is to warn the congregation particularly and presumably, the nation as a whole that they must repent of their sinful ways. They must turn to God for forgiveness to escape death by hellfire before it's too late. Edwards is saying that this is the opportunity to embrace and accept Jesus Christ, his teachings and his sacrifice as reparation for sins. The choice must be made by those people who God is calling, through Jesus Christ, to accept the call to repentance and a new life or reject it.
