There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after

they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.
What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
It took humans a long time to develop the match.
Learning how to make fire was a long struggle for humans.
The world went for years without adequate fire.
We often forget how the match changed the world.

What ideas does petrarch convey in these sonnets about the nature of beauty poetic inspiration and love at first sight?
Leni [432]

In Petrarch's sonnet 90 regarding true love, he expresses the following ideas: his love for Laura -one of the characters- does not fade with time; age doesn't matter to him. And secondly, because she has not returned, loving her was so painful.

Francesco Petrarca(original Italian name), was born in Arezzo, Italy, in 1304.

By the year 1327, Petrarch fell in love with a girl named <em>"Laureta"</em>, who was the inspiration for most of Francesco's poetry. Some author's question the existence of this woman, but she really influenced the emotions of the poet, reflecting his feelings in its sonnets.

Later in his life, Petrarch traveled through Europe, to meet with Dionigi da Borgo, who gave him a copy of the book <em>Confessions</em>, of Saint Agustine.
