In my opinion, the correct answer is C. the path of morality versus the path of civil law and order.

Creon's act of banning Polyneices' burial is understandable from the perspective of a king, who wants to protect his authority and punish all who would challenge it. He is a statesman and protector of the law, which means he must always punish an offender, or it would encourage many more people to break laws. However, Antigone's view is different. She thinks there are higher, divine, ethical laws, that are above any particular interests of state and the king, even if he is her own uncle. Her act depicts her bold determination that won't give way to any earthly authority.

how does the poem, When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer, connect to the principles of transcendentalism?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Walden, one of the many Transcendental concepts Thoreau expressed is the idea that God does not exist in some far away place, but lives instead all around us. "Heaven," he wrote, "is under our feet as well as over our heads." As a Transcendentalist, Thoreau believed that God manifests Himself in the natural world; therefore, nature lives as the source of spiritual truth for those who will seek it there. The poem's persona is one such person.

After listening to the astronomer analyze and "explain" the universe with his charts, diagrams, and mathematical formulas, the poem's speaker becomes "tired and sick." He leaves the stifling atmosphere of the confining lecture room and goes out into "the mystical moist night air."

The influence of Transcendental philosophy can be seen in the contrast between the attitudes and values of the lecturer and those of the poem's speaker. The astronomer intellectualizes nature, perhaps even brilliantly. He is very intelligent, but he is not wise. He understands facts, but he misses truth. The poem's speaker, however, understands that the truth of the universe, of nature itself, can only be understood spiritually. Rejecting the astronomer's carefully reasoned "proofs," he seeks truth instead by "[looking] up in perfect silence at the stars."

What main point does Eric Schlosser make in chapter 9
Oksana_A [137]
<span>Schlosser next focuses on the safety not just of factory workers in the meatpacking industry, but of the meat itself that that industry produces. Schlosser notes, throughout the chapter, that it is actually quite difficult to track the source of food-borne pathogens in the United States. There are several reasons for this, some more preventable than others: a great deal of meat is produced in this country; government oversight in meatpacking plants is rather low; and meat production is a complex system with many inputs, making cause and effect hard to determine.</span>
