The answer for part A is: The images of “dead winds” and “spent waves,” combined with those of “the green field growing” and people “reaping” at “harvest-time,” help convey that the poem is about death and life.
Swinburn wrote this poem during the time in which the Church of England tried to fight secularism by having people ask themselves if there was life after death. The guarantee of eternal life would only be given to those who believed in God and obeyed the Church’s morals. The theme of life and death was, thus, a popular and controversial one at the time.
The Garden of Proserpine focuses on the goddess, Persephone, as a deity of death and the underworld where she inhabits as a land of dreams. Those dreams, however, don’t cause tears or smiles. Such lack of feelings, though, is far from being sad. It is only peaceful.
That takes us to part B: The speaker says he is tired of people and their bad decisions, which always ruin the happy things in life.
People are never able to find real peace. They are always seeking for happiness and even sadness – anything that might make them feel alive and important. The speaker is weary of such fruitless pursuit and seems to appreciate the illusion Persephone’s flowers cause. Sleeping (dying) is peaceful, restoring, while being awake (living) is tiring and purposeless.
Answer:
Giles Core is characterized as
1. A foolish man- Indirect Characterization
2. A courageous man- Direct Characterization.
Explanation:
The Crucible tells the story of a man named Giles Corey who voluntarily offered a piece of information that would cause people to suspect his wife as a witch. He mentioned that when his wife read a book, he found it hard to pray but hen she stopped reading the book, he could then pray. This made people suspect his wife to be a witch. Through his actions, the author indirectly characerized him as a foolish man.
He tried to correct that impression when instead of giving the name of a man suspected to be wizard, he rather chose to die. The author through this description directly characterized him as a hero.
Harper Lee shows in Atticus' speech how much the human being tends to be unfair, ignorant, and maintain a negative hierarchy between people.
<h3>What does Atticus emphasize in the final speech?</h3>
- It shows how society is naturally racist.
- He claims that this racism leads to injustice.
- It shows how society is hierarchical.
- It shows how everyone is affected by it.
Atticus' final speech occurs when he fails to defend an innocent man and deliver him from death, even with proof of his innocence. Given this fact, he shows that it is human nature to be unfair when it comes to situations involving people of low hierarchical levels in society.
This makes him point out that the human being is biased and that he ignores the truth if it doesn't benefit him.
