Who is riding in the carriage with the speaker in Emily Dickinson’s poem “712” (“because I could not step for death”)
Amanda [17]

Death

In the poem the speaker says, "The Carriage held but just Ourselves – " At the very beginning of the poem the speaker personifies Death. When she says, "Because I could not stop for Death - He kindly stopped for me". This idea that Death stops for the speaker, personifies Death and makes him a character in the poem. This means that "Ourselves" refers to the speaker and Death.

Some people have argued that since Death is personified, so is Immortality and therefore Immortality is also riding in the Carriage with the speaker and Death. However, this is not a widely accepted interpretation.

5. Explain how the political events of the 1940s influenced Orwell's writing at that<br><br> time.
defon

Answer:

Orwell considered himself a democratic socialist, although he had a period in which he supported anarchist causes in Spain.

Explanation:

This speaks a lot about Orwell. It says that Orwell despised authoritarianism, and totalitarianism, and preferred governments where the power was descentralized.

During the 1940s, three totalitarian regimes were in full force: Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Soviet Russia. Orwell looked at these regimes with horror, because of the ways these regimes controlled every single aspects of people's lives.

He used these events as direct inspiration for his writing, specially for writing his most famous work: 1984, the story of a totalitarian society that shares many similarities with the regimes previously mentioned.
