What is the Allusion made with the phrase "Dix Hill" the story "The Scarlet Ibis"

English
1 answer:
erma4kov [3.2K]1 year ago
4 0

The quote is also important in another way, which can't be understood unless we know that Dix Hill is a psychiatric hospital. Brother is saying that if somebody had heard their "crazy" stories, they would have believed they were crazy, too, and sent them for psychiatric therapy

<h3>What is Dix Hill in The Scarlet Ibis?</h3>

Dix Hill, it so transpires, is the standard name for Dorothea Dix Hospital, a psychiatric hospital in Raleigh, North Carolina. It's not likely that Brother would be referencing a psychiatric hospital above of his state, so we can be fairly certain the location is North Carolina.

<h3>What killed Doodle in The Scarlet Ibis?</h3>

Unlike the ibis, Doodle doesn't die because he's been in a hurricane. He overexerts himself rowing, then overexerts himself more by running, and then gets scared when Brother abandons him in the storm. He is in a storm, but he most likely dies as a result of his soul condition.

Alla [95]

Hello. Although You have submitted a text, You have not submitted any questions about it, which prevents me from giving you any answers. However, I will tell you what this text means and I hope it will help you.

This text is an excerpt from "True West" written by Sam Shepard, where we read about the dispute between two brothers. Those brothers are Lee and Austin and they're competing over who can write the best Western theater play.

In the excerpt shown above, Lee is claiming that he can write about the real western, escaping the stereotyped myth that western theater plays present. That's because Lee has lived in the Wild West and knows what he was really like, so he believes he can write a much better play, real and full of success.
