Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.
“That's right,” said the Queen, patting her on the head, which Alice didn't like at all, “though, when you say ‘garden,’—I'VE seen gardens, compared with which this would be a wilderness.”
Alice didn't dare to argue the point, but went on: “—and I thought I'd try and find my way to the top of that hill—”
“When you say ‘hill,’” the Queen interrupted, “I could show you hills, in comparison with which you'd call that a valley.”
Why does the Red Queen use opposites to describe the garden and the hill?
to remind Alice that she is the Red Queen and Alice is just a commoner who must mind her manners
to describe to Alice just how horrible and small all other gardens and hills really are
to make the point that her garden and hill are better and bigger than any others
to convince Alice to stay with her in her garden and on top of her hill in the looking-glass land

Read the excerpts from "the royal house of thebes" and "the story of a warrior queen." "we are women," she told her sister. "we must obey. we have no strength to defy the state." "choose your own part," antigone said. "i go to bury the brother i love." "you are not strong enough," ismene cried. "why, then when my strength fails," antigone answered, "i will give up." she left her sister; ismene dared not follow her. —"the royal house of thebes" again and again the romans were defeated, till it almost seemed as if the britons really would succeed in driving them out of the country. boadicea herself led the soldiers, encouraging them with her brave words. "it is better to die with honor than to live in slavery," she said. "i am a woman, but i would rather die than yield. will you follow me, men? " and of course the men followed her gladly. —"the story of a warrior queen" how are the archetypes presented in these two passages different? the first passage shows antigone as a warrior, and the second passage shows boadicea as a tragic heroine. the first passage shows antigone as a tragic heroine, and the second passage shows boadicea as a sage. the first passage shows antigone as a rebel, and the second passage shows boadicea as a warrior. the first passage shows antigone as a villain, and the second passage shows boadicea as a sage.
