The monster and the trickster figures are examples of which of the following? A. legends B. epics C. archetypes D. universal themes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it might be C but not sure anymore?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can help! :) Let me read the question for a sec...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks:)

OpenStudy (goformit100):

B. epics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so do you understand the answer choices?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not really because there like myth stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And goformit is wrong, by the way.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought so because tricksters and monsters are bad so they cant be A or B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, good, so let me give you an idea of what they're saying: a legend is mythical, something mysterious, like the tales of the Lost City of Atlantis. An Epic is similar, but heroic; like Odysseus. And you're right, A and B are wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its D because i looked up what C means and its like nice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, actually, D is also incorrect. Universal themes tend to be ones that everyone usually relates to, like love, fear, perseverance, etc. The answer is "C" archetype, because an archetype is a common character or TYPE of thing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it would be C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i had C the first time but i looked it up and it said it was something nice ? weird i probably took the definition incorrectly..... thank you :) makes sense now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following correctly defines an epic? A. a lengthy narrative that alternates sections in prose with sections in verse B. a narrative whose central character experiences a conflict with nature C. a long narrative poem about important events in the history or folklore of a nation or culture D. a lengthy narrative whose plot features romantic love i think this is C can you tell me if im right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're welcome! :) For future reference in case you ever see archetype again: Archetype: "A very typical example of a certain person or thing." :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks:)
