Answer:

While new philosophies were challenging old religious ideas, many people still believed that the gods of Olympus had a direct influence on the lives of mortal beings.

Explanation:

Old Greeks were polytheists, which means they believed in many gods, not just one. Their gods lived on Mount Olympus and included Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, etc. They believed that gods had an immediate effect on their lives and that their fates were controlled by them.

A bit later, during Sophocles's time, people started turning themselves towards innovation, politics, and philosophy more than religion, especially their old, polytheistic one.

When you apply a critical perspective to literature, you read a selection through a particular lens or frame. An example is the social or historical perspective would be viewing literature as it reflects issues in society at the time it was written. What would best define the archetypal perspective?

Answers

The one that best define the archetypal perspective would be : viewing literature as an expression of characters, symbols, or patterns that cross cultures. Archetypal perspective is a form perspective that interpret a literature by focussing on recurring myths

hope this helps

A critical perspective can help us understand and explore literature, it is used to analyze works beyond their content, to understand the whole context in which they were written, the background and their impact. One way of analyzing literature can be from an archetypal perspective.

An archetypal perspective can be defined as a criticism focused on the symbols, patterns, forms and characters that are universal. An archetype has its origins from Carl Jung's collective unconscious, in which he stated that the human experience is transferred from generations. This means that an archetype has the same function throughout humankind.

An example of a literary archetype would be a romantic novel in which the characters fall in love but have to face an obstacle to be together, and when they overcome this obstacle they get married.  

An archetype perspective can help us understand complex characters, and situations based on a general perspective, and make literature easier.

He then began to curse me, shouting terrible words and saying that I was a traitor, that I would get a terrible punishment. He kept on cursing uncontrollably. I remained standing as tall as I could, not reacting at all to his words. The more he shouted, the more nervous he became. He began to pace from wall to wall. Suddenly, he spun on his heel and said, "What shall I do with you?"At that moment, I began to feel that I was getting a little more control of the situation. I felt as though I'd grown a little in height. He studied me. I could hear him thinking, Here are two people standing across from each other who are from one country, from one city. One hunts Jews and the other protects them. He quieted down a bit; his face became more human.
