Edgar Allan Poe developed the detective story ( facts, mystery and rational resolution). He may have been the pioneer of the gothic horror perspective in America. He used to write short works and he never wrote a full-length novel in comparison to the other horror and fantasy writers that preceded him.

The Masque of the Red Death is important in American culture because it is an excellent example of Poe's theory of the short story.

As regards Charles Chesnutt, he was an African-American writer, and advocate for politics and a lawyer. He is famous for developing complex issues of racial and social identity in the post- Civil War South. After the Civil Rights Movement, the interest of people in his work grew enormously.

"The wife of His Youth" is important in American culture because it refers to race relations between the black community, it explores its own color and class prejudices .

Does anyone have Notes on Act 2 of Macbeth
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

you can find some notes on spark notes just search "Notes on Act 2 of Macbeth"

Explanation:

But here is something for you.

In this scene, Macbeth returns from murdering Duncan, alarmed that he heard a noise. Lady Macbeth dismisses his fears and sees that he has brought the guards' daggers with him, rather than planting them at the scene of the crime. She tells him to return the daggers but he refuses and Lady Macbeth goes instead.

Macduff discovers the king has been murdered and he wakes up all the thanes and royals who are sleeping at Macbeth's castle. In the confusion, Macbeth kills the 2 drugged servants who were guarding the king. He wants everyone to think that the servants were paid to kill the king.

frutty [35]

Answer: B. He is too tired to run and decides to die  in his sleep.

Explanation:

In ''To Build a Fire'' a man is traveling in the Yukon in very cold weather with a dog. He attempts to build a fire multiple times but fails each time as the cold and snow snuff it out.

When he predicts that he was nearing death as the cold got worse, he decided to start running in order to get blood circulating around his body but it is too cold and he is too tired so his endurance fails him and he stops running. He now accepts that his death and meets it with perceived dignity by deciding to fall asleep and die from there.
