The line "Blood drizzling on the Capitol" is symbolic.

<h3>What does this passage symbolize?</h3>
  • Deaths.
  • Violence.
  • Brutality.
  • Suffering.

In the literature, the use of symbols is very common, as authors use them to represent larger and broader concepts that would be tedious to explain literally in the text. In this case, the authors seek simple and more subjective terms to represent these concepts to the reader in a more attractive way.

In the text indicated in the question above, the sentence "Blood drizzling on the Capitol" is used to symbolize a scenario of barbarism, extreme violence, and very aggressive killings.

Which reasons explain why a first person perspective may be biased
Colt1911 [192]
First person perspective is the perspective of one person, the protagonist, this means there is no perspective from other characters. This means that the protagonist is the only one telling the story. This character could lack experience and knowledge and therefore misunderstand a situation or have an opinion on a subject.

Evaluate: Dexter becomes engaged to Irene but then returns to Judy? Do you think he
STatiana [176]

Answer and Explanation:

This question is about the short story "Winter Dreams", by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The main character is Dexter, an ambitious young man who has an obsession for Judy. Judy is wealthy and beautiful, but spoiled and vain. She is used to having everything she wants in life given to her easily, including men. She and Dexter hang out for some time, but Judy has other things to do, other men to meet. Dexter then begins to date Irene, and they even get engaged. However, once Judy reappears, Dexter goes back to her.

Dexter becomes engaged to Irene by then returns to Judy. Do you think he knew their engagement would not last? What clues does the text provide?

<u>Dexter most likely did not think his engagement to Irene would not last. He likes her, even though she does not fascinate him like Judy does. Dexter admires Irene, and at a certain point he even imagines the both of them having children and growing old together.</u>

Some clues provided in the short story are:

"Irene was light-haired and sweet and honorable..."

"He knew that Irene would be no more than a curtain spread behind him, a hand moving among gleaming tea-cups, a voice calling to children . . . fire and loveliness were gone, the magic of nights and the wonder of the varying hours and seasons . . . slender lips, down-turning , dropping to hi slips and bearing him up into a heaven of eyes . . . "
