Which of the following lines from Antigone shows a result of Creon’s change in fortune, or his peripeteia?SECOND MESSENGER:
Lady bird [7499]
I would argue that the passages from Antigone reflecting Creon's shift in luck, or his peripeteia, are:
Second messenger: Thy [Creon's] wife, the mother of thy deceased son here,
Lies afflicted by a newly inflicted wound.
Due to his change in fate, both his wife and son have lost their lives.

Read these lines from "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" and answer the question.
seraphim [7410]
I'm not entirely certain what the question asks, but here is my interpretation.
This seems to be an example of social prejudice (possibly legal too if we consider its consequences).

Why it likely isn't the others:
- Racial: The passage doesn't mention race explicitly.
- Possibly legal: The man appears wealthy and may evade punishment for the murder, but this is speculative given only this text.
- Environmental: The environment is not referenced here.

Supporting the social prejudice theory:
- The diamond ring suggests wealth since only affluent individuals can afford such items.
- Mention of a hotel social event points to high social status.
- The victim, Hattie Carroll, is poor, illustrating a social divide.

how does Orwell use satire to achieve his purpose in this passage? Select two options. He uses parody to show how dictators defl
Bond [7527]

Answer:

Squealer's role serves as a satire of a gullible supporter of a dishonest leader.

He employs reversal to illustrate that dictators violate their own declared principles.

Explanation:

George Orwell's Animal Farm presents an allegorical tale reflecting the dynamics of human society, particularly that of the Russian government under Stalin’s oppressive rule. The narrative portrays how individuals overthrow their leaders in pursuit of change, only to find themselves ensnared by a similar tyranny.

In a segment from Chapter 5, the narrative details the strategy for reconstructing the windmill, revealing the cunning tactics of Napoleon, the leader who manipulates the farm’s animals. They had revolted against their human oppressors expecting authentic democracy, which ultimately proved to be illusory. Napoleon rises to power, assuming that he is the legitimate authority over all animals. Squealer particularly exemplifies a naive supporter of a corrupt leader, a dictator who disregards his own rules while demanding that others follow them.
