Reflexive Pronouns and Relative Pronouns

Hard

(Originais Teachy 2024) - Question Hard of Spanish

During the Renaissance, the study of Greek and Latin was paramount for the understanding of classical works and a milestone in the development of modern philosophical and scientific thought. Mastery of these ancient languages allowed scholars to access and interpret texts that shaped the foundation of Western knowledge. Considering this historical perspective and the importance of grammar in the interpretation of literary texts, analyze the excerpt from the sonnet 'Ode to Horace' (Homenaje a Horacio) by Pablo Neruda and identify the reflexive pronoun and the relative pronoun present in the context. Then, discuss how these pronouns contribute to the construction of meaning and emphasis in the poem, taking into account the formal and thematic characteristics of the text and the historical-cultural context of the Renaissance.
a.
Neruda, when writing 'Ode to Horace', avoided the use of reflexive and relative pronouns to create a more direct language accessible to the Renaissance audience.
b.
The reflexive and relative pronouns are not used in poetry, as they hinder the meter and rhyme, fundamental elements for poetic structure.
c.
The reflexive and relative pronouns can be found in the text of the poem 'Ode to Horace' by Pablo Neruda, for example, 'se' as a reflexive pronoun and 'que' as a relative pronoun.
d.
The use of reflexive pronouns was common in Renaissance poetry, but relative pronouns did not fit the literary style of the time and were avoided by poets.
e.
In the context of the poem 'Ode to Horace', reflexive and relative pronouns are used exclusively to indicate the social position of the subject and the hierarchical relationship between characters.
