Sophocles chose to recall events of Laius's death rather than portray them. What is the effect of this structural decision?

English

Answer:

"In recalling the events of Laius 'death, Sophocles blames Oedipus' character. That's because, Oedipus' memory doesn't let him escape the guilt over his father's murder. This means that he has no way to deny what he did, because his own mind shows that he is the murderer. In this way, Sophocles allows Oedipus to become a self-tortured soul, as his thoughts return to that memory and do not allow him to free himself from guilt, which makes Oedipus look for punishment himself."

kap26 [50]

Answer:

I assume you meant to ask, "What is a simile <em>in </em>"The Hands of an Angry God." So, one example is the simile in which the author compares God's wrath to a terrible flood (“The wrath of God is like great waters that are dammed for the present...”).

Please read the following excerpt from an essay, and answer the question that follows.I've never actually met a real live humori
Otrada [13]

Answer:

A. Specific Detail

Explanation:

It is definitely not humor or assertion, which is a confident, forceful statement.  I don't see it as simplicity because that is plain, natural, or easy to understand.  When writing a thesis statement, your topic needs to be strong and to the point, which is more a specific detail.  In this case, it is a specific detail about the narrator.

Combining a sign with the sign for AGENT indicates a person does a job or occupation. True or false
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The concept of "agent" has many variations and interpretations..the sign for "person" is sometimes initialized with the letter "P" but in everyday signing there is generally no reason to use the "P" handshapes. You can just use "flat" hands..When you use the PERSON-[agent] sign in combination with other signs you should always use "flat" hands (not "P"-hands)
