Answer:

A. Both narrators describe gazing upon a hideous being.

B. Frankenstein believes his monster to be even more gruesome looking than the creatures Dante faced in hell.

Explanation:

Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" revolves around a young scientist's desire to achieve knowledge beyond human limits, creating a monster. This act made him parallel to a god, capable of giving life to a being.

Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy" focuses on the 'journey' of the writer (supposedly) into the afterworld. The narrative takes us along as Dante embarks on a 'tour' of the three realms of the dead.

In these two excerpts given in the question, we see Victor and Dante commenting on the respective monsters they encountered. While Frankenstein describes his monster as <em>"a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived"</em>, Dante's Minos is full of <em>"ghastly features".</em>

Thus, the correct answers are options A and B.

Which was the most common form of resistance among enslaved people?
elena-s [515]
One form of resistance was slowing down the picking of cotton.  Slaves would intentionally go slower so that they could have an easier time in the fields.  This was combatted by the Southern Plantation owners after a while by whipping the slaves severely during their first picks and then mandating that they had to pick at least as much cotton every time after.

Another form of resistance was to run away.  The Underground Railroad helped thousands of slaves escape to the north and to freedom.
