Essay 2 In the passage describing the Mytilenian Debate, Thucydides explains the duality between the “man in the street” and “intellectuals.” Thucydides places the man in the street and intellectuals in opposition through the phrase “better…by the man in the street than by intellectuals,” suggesting that there is a fundamental difference between the two; most importantly, the difference in their intelligences. By pitting the man in the street against ‘intellectuals,’ Thucydides suggests that the

most highlighted moments of literature in history is the temptation of Eve by the serpent. In "The Temptation and Fall of Eve" illustration by William Blake’s depiction of this scene, both the image and the text argue that humankind craves knowledge, even if it means disobedience and taking risks. Eve was not so easily swayed by the subtle and manipulative serpent in the text. The story demonstrates that the serpent – which is actually Satan in disguise – does try to goad her into biting into the

why human emotion is fickle. However, the symbolism of the Garden of Eden trumps all others and usurps much of D-503’s experience. Although the sly temptress I-330 can be compared to Eve, the text suggests she more easily fits the character of the serpent, which is supported by her casual interrogation of child-like D-503, her deliverance of the altering substance, and finally her untimely punishment at the hands of the all-powerful Benefactor.

Serpent is repeated throughout the Bible for example, Deuteronomy 32:33 (“Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.”) and Job 20; 14 (“yet his food will turn sour in his stomach; it will become the venom of serpents within him.”) These are a few examples of this repetition , suggests that the serpent is important within the Bible however he is always mentioned in reference to evil.

passage says,“Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down―that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.” The passage begins by stating that there will be a war in heaven, one between Michael and Satan. Michael is God’s archangel whose name

case to defend women- who’re to blame because Eve ate forbidden fruit in the garden. She argues that men [Adam] shouldn’t be exempt from fault. This may very well be true; however, it seems as though the serpent is playing a larger role than granted in the poem. Lanyer asserts “The subtle serpent that our sex betrayed/ Before our fall so sure a plot had laid” (Lanyer, 23-4). In other words, the fall of man was in the serpent’s plan all along. He thoroughly planned and plotted on deceiving Eve, who

English man, Peter of Peckham and the original book was written in French. In the scene Adam and Eve are clearly defined as well as the serpent. The serpent is shown wrapped around the tree still having its limbs, with a human face, which I believe is just the stylist choice of the artist. Eve is shown with the apple in her hand since she was the one that the serpent was first able to convince to eat the forbidden fruit.

In the ninth book of Paradise Lost by John Milton, Adam and Eve fall, leaving the reader wondering who caused the fall between Adam and Eve. I blame Adam and Eve each for his or her own fall; I argue how Eve causes her own fall, how Adam causes his own fall, they did not cause each other’s falls, they fell by themselves. One of the main stances scholars taken claims that Eve caused the fall of both her and Adam. Christopher Baker looks at the use of the word ‘ingorg’d’ shortly after the fall of

Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, has God said, you shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2. And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3. But of the fruit (this is not edible fruit) of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.- There is no poison fruit! : 4.
