Think about the way Ahab dies in the novel Moby- D ick. In what way is his death symbolic?
He drowns before he can see his crew capture Moby- D ick.
He literally becomes tied up with the same whale with which he has been obsessed.
He is stabbed through the heart with the very lance that he intended to use on Moby- D ick.
He lives long enough to watch his ship and crew sink to the bottom of the ocean.
Captain Ahab's death in 'Moby Di'ck' symbolizes the fatal consequences of his obsession with the white whale, entangling him in the very ropes of the harpoon meant for Moby Di'ck and dragging him to the sea's depths.
The death of Captain Ahab in Herman Melville's Moby Di'ck is highly symbolic and concludes his monomaniacal quest to kill Moby Di'ck, which ultimately leads to his own demise. Ahab dies by being dragged into the depths of the sea by the white whale, symbolizing the destructive nature of his obsession and the inescapability of fate. The image of Ahab, entangled in the ropes of the harpoon he had intended to kill the whale with, illustrates the deeply intertwined relationship between the hunter and the hunted, emphasizing the tragedy of Ahab's inability to overcome his single-minded pursuit of revenge.

In Achebe’s Things Fall Apart, why is it considered a "feminine" crime when Ezeudu’s son is killed?
Answer:
Because it was not an intentional crime.
Explanation:
Ezeudu's son is killed during his own father's funeral. Ogbuefi Ezedu's was a great warrior, and therefore, his funeral is large and very elaborate. During the funeral, the men beat drums and fired their guns. Okonkwo's gun accidentally goes off, and he ends up killing Ezeudu's sixteen-year-old son. Because the gun was fired accidentally, this is considered a "feminine" crime. Moreover, because it is a crime against the earth goddess to kill a clansman, Okonkwo must take his family into exile for seven years.
It is considered a "feminine" crime when Ezeudu's son is killed by Okonkwo because it was an unintentional killing, as further expressed below.
What is a "feminine" crime?In "Things Fall Apart," by Chinua Achebe, a "feminine" crime is an unintentional crime, that is, a crime that happens by accident. That is why Okonkwo's killing of Ezeudu's son is a "feminine" crime.
He is killed when Okonkwo's gun goes of by accident. Therefore, there was no intention behind the murder, no desire to kill. The crime is "feminine" for that reason.

When hamlet first encountered the ghost what did he wonder?
When Hamlet first encountered the ghost, he questioned whether its intentions were wicked or charitable and sought to understand why it had returned from the dead. He was deeply troubled by the apparition and his encounter led to the revelation that his father was murdered by his uncle Claudius.
When Hamlet First Encountered the Ghost
When Hamlet first encountered the ghost, he wondered about the nature and the intent of the apparition before him. He questioned whether the ghost's intentions were wicked or charitable and why it had returned from the dead, asking it directly: "Be thy intents wicked or charitable, Thou com'st in such a questionable shape That I will speak to thee: I'll call thee Hamlet, King, father, royal Dane; O, answer me! Let me not burst in ignorance; but tell Why thy canoniz'd bones, hearsed in death, Have burst their cerements; why the sepulchre, Wherein we saw thee quietly in-urn’d, Hath op'd his ponderous and marble jaws To cast thee up again!". These lines clearly show Hamlet's urgent need for understanding the reason behind the ghost's unsettling return.
Furthermore, Hamlet refers to the ghost as "King, father, royal Dane," expressing his shock and awe at seeing the deceased king, his father, in a ghostly form. The Prince of Denmark is deeply troubled by the ghost's presence, evidenced by his attire looking "so piteous in purport" as if he had been loosed out of hell, and by his determination to unravel the mystery it presents.
Ultimately, the encounter with the ghost leads Hamlet to discover that his father's death was not due to a serpent's sting but was a murder committed by his own uncle, Claudius, who now wears the crown. This revelation propels the story forward and sets in motion Hamlet's quest for justice and revenge.
