I would not do it for a child, were I a mother, Not for a husband either. Let them lie, putrefied, dead; I would not defy the city at such cost for their sake. What law can I claim on my side for this choice

Answers

Answer 1

Hi. Even though you submitted a text, you did not submit any questions about it. This makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try to help you by telling you what this text means.

This text is an excerpt from the play "Antigone" and is spoken by Antigone herself, as she explains to Creon why she decided to disobey his orders and bury her brother.

Antigone's brother died a traitor and Creon, the king, forbade anyone to bury him. Anyone who disobeyed him would be sentenced to death. Antigone disobeyed and when she was taken to Creon she told him the words shown in the text above. In these words Antigone claims that she would not defy the king's order for a son or for a husband, because she could have another husband and other children, but she cannot have another brother and so she disobeyed the king. In this moment, Antigone shows how family relationships are important to her.

Answer:“Last Love” by Rachel McKibbens.

To my daughters I need to say:

Go with the one who loves you biblically.

The one whose love lifts its head to you

despite its broken neck. Whose body bursts

sixteen arms electric to carry you, gentle

the way old grief is gentle.

Love the love that is messy in all its too much,

The body that rides best your body, whose mouth

saddles the naked salt of your far gone hips,

whose tongue translates the rock language of

all your elegant scars.

Go with the one who cries out for her tragic sisters

as she chops the winter’s wood, the one whose skin

triggers your heart into a heaven of blood waltzes.

Go with the one who resembles most your father.

Not the father you can point out on a map,

but the father who is here, is your home,

is the key to your front door.

Know that your first love will only be the first.

And the second and third and even fourth

will unprepare you for the most important:

The Blessed. The Beast. The Last Love,

which is, of course, the most terrifying kind.

Because which of us wants to go with what can murder us?

Can reveal to us our true heart’s end and its thirty years

spent in poverty? Can mimic the sound of our bird-throated mothers,

replicate the warmth of our brothers’ tempers?

Can pull us out of ourselves until we are no longer sisters

or daughters or sword swallowers but, instead,

women who give and lead and take and want

and want and want and want,

because there is no shame in wanting.

And you will hear yourself say:

Last Love, I wish to die so I may come back to you

new and never tasted by any other mouth but yours.

And I want to be the hands that pull your children

out of you and tuck them deep inside myself until they are

ready to be the children of such a royal and staggering love.

Or you will say:

Last Love, I am old, and have spent myself on the courageless,

have wasted too many clocks on less-deserving men,

so I hurl myself at the throne of you and lie humbly at your feet.

Last Love, let me never roll out of this heavy dream of you,

let the day I was born mean my life will end

where you end. Let the man behind the church

do what he did if it brings me to you. Let the girls

in the locker room corner me again if it brings me to you.

Let this wild depression throw me beneath its hooves

if it brings me to you. Let me pronounce my hoarded joy

if it brings me to you. Let my father break me again

and again if it brings me to you.

Last love, I have let other men borrow your children. Forgive me.

Last love, I once vowed my heart to another. Forgive me.

Last Love, I have let my blind and anxious hands wander into a room

and come out empty. Forgive me.

Last Love, I have cursed the women you loved before me. Forgive me.

Last Love, I envy your mother’s body where you resided first. Forgive me.

Last Love, I am all that is left. Forgive me.

Last Love, I did not see you coming. Forgive me.

Last Love, every day without you was a life I crawled out of. Amen.

Last Love, you are my Last Love. Amen.

Last Love, I am all that is left. Amen.

I am all that is left.

Amen.

B. There are many that would die before they'd lie; however, because he has lied before, he can do it again if it means staying alive.

C. The lie isn't as terrible since he has lied to her before; it isn't as sinful to lie again.

D. He would like to see something honest come of it all, and it isn't as hard to tell a lie as others might think.

Answers

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

His last conversation with Elizabeth was spent telling her he would NOT lie. This shows that he is a changed man who has learned from the mistakes his lies have caused.

From this excerpt, John Proctor meant that;

B. There are many that would die before they'd lie; however, because he has lied before, he can do it again if it means staying alive.

In this quote, Proctor and his wife Elizabeth were reasoning on the best course to take to remain alive. If he lied against himself by confessing that he was a witch, he would live. If not, he will die. Then in 1692 during the Salem Witch trials, many were accused of witchcraft. Some convicted people were hanged while some escaped death if they confessed to being witches.

All this while, Proctor had been maintaining the truth that he was not a witch. But now, under pressure, he reasoned on confessing even though he knew that he was not a witch, to escape death.

He reasoned that since he had lied in the case of his adultery with Abigail, he could lie again now to save himself. He then reached the conclusion to confess.

In conclusion, Proctor believed that since he had lied before, he could lie again now to save himself.

Doctor Pascal
by Emile Zola

In the heat of the glowing July afternoon, the room, with blinds carefully closed, was full of a great calm. From the three windows, through the cracks of the old wooden shutters, came only a few scattered sunbeams which, in the midst of the obscurity, made a soft brightness that bathed surrounding objects in a diffused and tender light. It was cool here in comparison with the overpowering heat that was felt outside, under the fierce rays of the sun that blazed upon the front of the house.

Standing before the press which faced the windows, Dr. Pascal was looking for a paper that he had come in search of. With doors wide open, this immense press of carved oak, adorned with strong and handsome mountings of metal, dating from the last century, displayed within its capacious depths an extraordinary collection of papers and manuscripts of all sorts, piled up in confusion and filling every shelf to overflowing. For more than thirty years the doctor had thrown into it every page he wrote, from brief notes to the complete texts of his great works on heredity. Thus it was that his searches here were not always easy. He rummaged patiently among the papers, and when he at last found the one he was looking for, he smiled.

For an instant longer he remained near the bookcase, reading the note by a golden sunbeam that came to him from the middle window. He himself, in this dawnlike light, appeared, with his snow-white hair and beard, strong and vigorous; although he was near sixty, his color was so fresh, his features were so finely cut, his eyes were still so clear, and he had so youthful an air that one might have taken him, in his close-fitting, maroon velvet jacket, for a young man with powdered hair.

How did the introduction of the "Age of Science" change the production of sugar?

Answers

Answer:

· According to B. W Higman, the characteristics of the sugar revolution or changes it brought by were the following; “a shift from diversified agriculture to sugar mono-culture, from production on small farms to large plantations, from free to slave labour, from sparse to dense settlement, from white to black populations, and from low to high value per capita output.”The sugar revolution was the change from tobacco to sugar in the Caribbean. This transformation was caused by a fall in tobacco sales leading to the need for a new crop. During the 17th century, Europe needed a sweetner and hence the colonizers chose to move from tobacco to sugar.

Read the Greek myth "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch and answer the question.

[1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity.

[2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice.

[3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold.

[4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day.
