In the context of this passage, how do people face death? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literatur
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Emily is clearly linked to a monument--a symbol of death--in this passage. Many people think of tributes to the dead or to fallen heroes when they think of monuments. Monuments are found in many cemeteries, often to remember the famous or dead who are buried there. Faulkner connects Emily to a '' fallen monument'', to reinforce the theme of decay, a reminder that all things will fall to ruin. Monuments will crumble, societies will falter, and Emily and the other townspeople will die.

Explanation:

Symbols of death are as pervasive as the fine dust that coats Miss Emily's house in this short story. The dust covers everything in Emily's house, and the men who go there to attempt to collect Emily's taxes notice that the hallway ''smelled of dust and disuse.'' When they are seated in the parlor, ''a faint dust rose sluggishly about their thighs, spinning with slow motes in the single sun-ray.''  

Dust coats everything in the secret room where Emily's horrifying secret is revealed and the townspeople learn that she has killed Homer Barron, her boyfriend, and kept his body. After Emily's neighbors break down the door of the secret room, they are shocked to see that ''What was left of him, rotted beneath what was left of the nightshirt, had become inextricable from the bed in which he lay; and upon him and upon the pillow beside him lay that even coating of the patient and biding dust.''

Side Note:

I hope this helps you in some or any way.

Is the sentence simple, compound, or complex? Anna and her friend visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
Andrei [34K]
This is a simple sentence because in its entirety it is a single clause. There are no multiple independent clauses connected or any subordinate clauses to make it compound or complex.
