What does paradox mean in this sentence from the audio story?

“One of the things I get from reading this collection of essays is the tension, the paradox between the deep connection you feel with your roots, your history, your family and, on the other hand, the need to move out of the house, to, as the title of the book says, find ‘a house of my own.’”

the pressure to make the right decision

the chance to make a meaningful change

traditions that cause problems if they are not followed

opposites that seem like they cannot exist at the same time

A Paradox is a phrase that seems to contradict itself.

Explanation:

In your passage, I have added this so it makes more sense.

“One of the things I get from reading this collection of essays is the tension, the seeming contradiction between the deep connection you feel with your roots, your history, your family and, on the other hand, the need to move out of the house, to, as the title of the book says, find ‘a house of my own.’”

So in your novel, the narrator is saying that he feels that there is a contradiction between the character and his 'deep connection felt with their roots, history, family, and the need to move out of the house.'

In this case, this statement seems to contradict itself because if the character really had a 'deep connection felt with their roots, history, family' they would want to stay with their family, not feel a sense of urgency to move away from them.

the answer is emerged from.

orpheus descended to hades, the world of the death to rescue eurydice. no mortal had ever done this before him, he survived because he was protected by the gods. the word "underworld" gives us a clue, he emerged from it like a whale emerges form sea for exemple.
