Question

man's attempt to immortalise himself prove to be futile.Eludicate with reference to ozymandias

Answer 1

★Ozymandias had proclaimed himself king of kings and constructed huge statues of himself.
★He thought that his works would provoke jealousy in future kings but what we see after generations is a pitiful and pathetic sculpture.
★His statue had become a colossal wreck.
★This shows that his attempt to immortalise himself was in vain.
★Material glory is not long lasting and man soon fades into oblivion.
★Your wealth, money, name and fame will eventually perish over time.
