“. . . [I]f his majesty, in consideration of your services, and pursuant to his own merciful disposition, would please to spare

your life, and only give orders to put out both your eyes, he humbly conceived that, by this expedient, just might in some measure be satisfied, and all the world applaud the lenity of the emperor, as well as the fair and generous proceedings of those who have the honor to be his counselors. . . .” Why would the passage above be most appropriate for a travel narrative, especially one written to establish business relationships?

lines 85-90: analyze the irony in these lines. how does this moment in the story demonstrate dramatic irony?​
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

These lines present dramatic irony because they show information that the public is aware of, but the characters are not.

Explanation:

The question above is about "Story of an Hour" where while we, as readers, know that the main character's husband is not dead, she doesn't know. However, when she finds out that her husband is alive, she passes out and has a heart attack that leads to her death. However, this heart attack is not caused by happiness but by the terror of knowing that her husband is alive.

This situation where the reader knows information, but the character does not, is an example of dramatic irony.

kow [346]

Answer:

Metaphor.

Explanation:

Metaphor is elucidated as the literary device that includes a comparison of two distinct and literally inapplicable ideas to invoke an implied similarity between them that assists in explaining or clarifying the idea.

In the given example, the use of 'cup' to describe 'endurance', 'abyss' to 'injustice', 'bleakness and corroding' to depict the 'despair' exemplify the unrelated, literally inapplicable, and implied comparison to reveal the similarities between them that helps the author to clarify the idea more effectively. Thus, <u>'metaphor'</u> is the correct answer.
