Clasping Nausicaa's knees was deemed too risky by Odysseus, since Nausicaa might have reacted poorly to his touch. Instead he talks to her, and admires her beauty. Nausicaa senses that Odysseus means no harm, and decides to help him out (Odysseus later tells the story of his journey to King Alcinous and Queen Arete--Nausicaa's parents who help him get back home to Ithaca. so b

In about one hundred words, discuss the symbolism and emotional effect of the metaphor in bold in the stanza. Cite specific word
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

See the discusion below.

Explanation:

Note: This question not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Here Captain! dear father! This arm beneath your head; It is some dream that on the deck, You've fallen cold and dead." In about one hundred words, discuss the symbolism and emotional effect of the metaphor in bold in the stanza. Cite specific words and lines to support your analysis.

The discussion is now provided as follows:

"O Captain! My Captain!" is a poem written by Walt Whitman, who dedicated it to Abraham Lincoln and his journey during the Civil War.

In the phrase "Here Captain! dear father!" he refers to the captain as his "father," implying that Whitman holds Lincoln and his leadership in high regard. The poem's initial stanzas indicate delight at first, followed by the second stanza, which appears to indicate celebration, but the change appears be unpleasant.

The clause "You've fallen cold and dead." conveys the writer's anguish over the captain's death, and it tells a lot in the third verse that he had suffered a great loss.
