What is the symbolism behind the Bed that Odysseus built with his own two hands?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The bed first symbolizes a place of love and loyalty, a place for the couple to share, but now the bed represents a safe place existing in the female sphere, the place where Penelope and her female attendants spend most of their time, left alone by the men in the household.

Answer 2

Answer:

A cautious Penelope, sought after by many clever suitors, uses the bed that she and Odysseus shared for so many years to trick Odysseus into proving his identity. The bed, carved from a tree that has its roots in the foundation of the house itself, is immovable, much like Odysseus and Penelope's loyalty to each other. Only Odysseus knows that it can't be moved without destroying it, and so Penelope knows that when she tells him she's had the bed moved, the only man who would be outraged by this confession is her true husband, the one who built the bed himself and kept the secret. Odysseus's anger is confirmation. Thus their marriage bed is not only a staple of the plot, but also a symbol of their enduring relationship, which has been strong enough to survive a separation of more than twenty years.

In Penelope's hands, the bed also helps reveal the qualities that she and Odysseus both share, and which have perhaps made their marriage such an unusually successful one (a rarity among Greek heroes—just look at how relationships worked out for Paris, Heracles, and Achilles). Both husband and wife share a propensity toward cleverness that is particularly unusual in the story. Odysseus is one of the few Greek heroes to epitomize brains over brawn. Even more remarkable is Penelope, whose womanly craftiness is most unusually accompanied by great virtue and purity instead of moral or sexual corruption.

what two questions are not definitely settled at the beginning of act 3?
gertrudes concern for hamlet
claudius’s guilt
horatio’s friendship
hamlets madness

Answers

Answer:

Claudius's guilt

Hamlet's madness.

Explanation:

Hamlet is a tragedy play written by William Shakespeare. The play is about Prince Hamlet, who mourns and seeks to avenge his father, King Hamlet's murderer.

In Act 3, the two questions that were definitely not settled were Claudius's guilt and Hamlet's madness. The act begins with Claudius questioning Rosencrantz and Guildenstern about Hamlet's insanity. The question remains unanswered as they were not able to answer the reason behin Hamlet's strange behaviour.

Another question that remains unanswered was whether Clauidius was guilty of  murdering King Hamlet or not. Though his concern for Hamlet's insane behavior seemed to come out of love for him, but in secret he was conspiring to kill him. This questions that whether Claudius was trying to hide his sin, or with what purpose was he trying to kill Hamlet.

Therefore, the correct answers are option B and D.

Answer:

Claudius Guild AND Hamlets Madness

Explanation:

These are the two central issues in the play Hamlet. They are not resolved untill the end of the play when both Hamlet and Claudius die as a result of their actions.

Why are the Putnams so eager to assume that the children are ill because they are bewitched?

Answers

Answer:

The number of children who have diedThe need to blame something for their deaths

Explanation:

In The Crucible, the Putnams have lost seven children with an eight, Ruth, very sick. They think this to be very unusual because it is just too many children to have died from the same illness.

Mr. Putnam rules genetics out as a factor by referring to the large family he came from where he had ten brothers which meant to him that his genes were strong enough for his children to stay alive.

Another reason was the need to blame the deaths of the kids on something especially for Mrs. Putnam who kept seeing her children die. She needed to blame something to feel better and witchcraft was an easy factor.
