jeka94

I don't like the way this is worded. An allegory is a short type of poem. Not a genre. But the answer is D. If you look at general poetry structure, it tells a vivid story in a confined manner.

Analyze Pope and Swift's pieces under the context of Juvenalian and Horatian satire. What are the differences? Your answer shoul
Arisa [49]

The two forms of satire are Horatian Satire and Juvenalian Satire. The first kind of satire employs mockery as its primary devices and accompanies adoration for the people being mocked. While, on the other hand, the second type of satire conveys an indignant tone and harshly ridicules its subject of satire.

Pope’s magnum opus The Rae of the Locke is the best example of Horatian satire. This wonderful creation by Pope conveys the style of mild mockery and indulgence in the society. In this epic poem, he parodies social shortcomings that accompany most of the individuals in the social world. His tools expose the absurd and foible attributes that prevail in within humanity.

Moving on, The Modest Proposal by Swift exemplifies the harsh, sneering satire of the second type. In this work of art, Swift acts directly on the menace he dislikes. He conveys his ideas by being outrageous and deplorable in his statements and suggestions in the book. For example, he mentions in his book that some individuals would be utilized as food in Ireland, which shows his direct and offensive approach in writing.

To conclude, the difference in both writers’ style is their approach to the readers, in which they present their thoughts, is obvious. While Pope utilizes mild tone and mocks gently, Swift acts like an indignant satirist with a direct revolutionary advancement of statements. Both portray all the needed attributes of Horatian and Juvenalian satire, respectively.

Which would be an appropriate follow-up question to ask this student?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: B. “What are some specific examples of love causing violence in Romeo and Juliet?”

This is the question that most directly addresses the student's claim. The student argues that a theme of the play is that love can cause violence. In order to decide whether the statement has some truth to it, the first thing we need to do is discover whether the student has some evidence to support the claim. If he is able to come up with examples that support his position, then it is likely he is right about this topic being one of the main themes in the play.
