These words were said to Creon when Oedipus accused him of treason, because Creon had information that pointed out Oedipus as the murderer of his own father.

This happened because Oedipus sent Creon to the oracle of Apollo, to obtain revelations about who was the assassin of King Laios, whom Oedipus did not know was his biological father. Creon arrived with the information that Laios' killer was among them, among the royal family. Oedipus powerfully seeks the killer, but all the clues point to him. Unhappy, Edipo claims that Creonte is lying, that he is a traitor who wishes to usurp the throne and that he deserves death for that.

How does Capote, as a writer, handle the actual murder of the Clutter family? in the novel "in cold blood"
Ronch [10]

"In cold blood" is a faction novel, which means it is fiction based on facts. It tells a story of a horrible murder committed by D.ck Hickock and Perry Smith on Friday 13th 1959 in Holcomb, Kansas. On that night the Clutter family was killed by them.

Truman Capote stumbled across a short article in New York Times and got very intrigued by the story. He was waiting for a long time for a story spin like this.

In his book "In cold blood" Capote prepares his readers for the horrible events that are going to happen. Even  the name of the book gives a hint to the reader, so it is known that  somebody is going to die.

The perspective of the narration switches back and forth which involves the reader more into the story. When the perspective switches to D.ck and Perry, while Clutters are still alive, it makes the reader wonder when the murder is going to happen. With this literately device Capote plays with his reader building up the tension.

At some degree the author tries to make this horrible event a little bit less shocking for his audience. Capote creates suspense by putting questions in his readers heads like: "When the family is going to die?, How will it happen? What will I feel?".

Capote handles the murder by creating suspense because the reader before starting the book already knows that the family gets killed and the murderers get executed, therefore this book is a test of how you will react to the described events.

which sentence best describes the tone of the passage from the radio broadcast compared to the passage from the book ?
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

B. The radio broadcast has a more surprised tone.

Explanation:

<em>The War of the Worlds</em> is a book by H. G. Wells, which was also adapted as a radio broadcast by Orson Welles. In its book form, the story is told after the events (a Martian invasion) have taken place. They are also told in a more matter-of-fact tone. On the other hand, in the radio broadcast, the events are told in a way that makes it seem as if they were happening in the moment. The speaker sounds more scared, and the overall tone is more surprised.
