Describe what the name Epimetheus means​

English
1 answer:
nexus9112 [7]2 years ago
3 0
Epimetheus was one of the Titans, son of Iapetus and Clymene. He was the brother of Prometheus, Atlas and Menoetius. His name is derived from the Greek word meaning 'afterthought', which is the antonym of his brother's name, Prometheus, meaning 'forethought'. In this context, Epimetheus appeared as a foolish character, while Prometheus was the clever one.
Prometheus and Epimetheus were told to distribute characteristics to the newly created animals. Epimetheus started giving a positive trait to every animal, but lacking foresight, he realised that he had distributed all traits without having any left to give to man. So, Prometheus gave mankind the civilizing arts and fire.

Part A
Kitty [74]

Diversity and equity are qualities to be celebrated is the theme does Whitman develop in poem 16 of “Song of Myself”.  “Stuff’d with the stuff that is coarse and stuff’d with the stuff that is fine,” is the lines from poem 16 best develop the theme in Part A. Hence, option A and D are correct.

<h3>What is the main idea of Song of Myself?</h3>

The three main topics are the poet's engagement with the elements of the natural world and the cosmos, his or her conception of himself or herself, and self-identification with other selves. Homes and spaces represent civilisation, while smells represent our individual selves and our surroundings our communal selves.

But "Song of Myself" has a few problems. The poem's strong depictions of sensuality and eroticism contributed to its rather infamous reputation.

Thus, option A and D are correct.
