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.

Natali [406]

B - It can leave the reader unsatisfied

An anticlimax is a disappointing (or unsatifying) ending to an otherwise exciting series of events. Example: think of an action movie that just ends without wrapping up the loose ends or leaves too many unanswered questions.

Who was half man half horse in Greek Mythology?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: Centaurs

Explanation:

Kinnaras, another half-man, half-horse mythical creature from Indian mythology, appeared in various ancient texts, arts, and sculptures from all around India. It is shown as a horse with the torso of a man where the horse's head would be, and is similar to a Greek centaur.

It comes from the ancient Greek word kentauros, which is sometimes considered to literally mean ‘bull-killer.’ According to the Greek mythology, there was a whole race of them, usually described as ferocious and with somewhat beastly and uncivilized appetites. Chiron was unique case: he was Cronus’ son, wise and just, and had taught a lot of Greek heroes like Achilles and Jason.
