Answer 1

In the second paragraph of "Kew Gardens" by Virginia Woolf, the use of figurative language serves to deepen the emotional resonance and thematic complexity of the narrative. If we're to analyze a statement such as "Thank you, Greeks, the spirits of the dead" compared to "His friend, the spirits of the dead" in the cultural context, we might say that alluding to "the spirits of the dead" evokes a sense of history, memory, and the impact of previous generations on the present.
