Answer:

Explanation:

Williams starts the poem with the stark contrast between Icarus' falling and the spring, which immediately evokes the paradox which is at the poem's core: birth and death are two sides of the same coin. Then he gradually develops the spring motif as a metaphor of birth, abundance, and profusion. When the image of pageantry "concerned with itself" comes to a climax, we are reminded again of the birth/death contrast - the sun, which nurtures the whole nature, melts the wings of a flying boy, causing his drowning. The whole poem, short as it is, is an expanded contrast between rising and falling, thriving and dying.

Answer:

By telling the reader that "it was spring".

Explanation:

William Carlos William's poem "Landscape With the Fall of Icarus" is in relation with the painting of the with the same title by Pieter Bruegel. It talks of the fall of Icarus from the sky and the moment of his fall into the water.

Opening the poem with the lines "<em>When Icarus fell, it was spring</em>", Williams presented a stark contrasted picture. This contrasted picture also point to the image of the two stages of life and death, birth and death being the two sides of humanity. Spring represents the abundance, the start and colorful beginning while the fall represents a fall from life, a metaphor of death. Thus, the poem, short as it may seem, is a representation of the contrasting nature of living and dying, birth and death.

Why did Thomas have so much difficulty adjusting to military life?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: Probably because transitioning isn't about leaving the military. It is about reintegrating back into society. It starts by making meaningful connections in life beyond the military. This process is made harder by the clear purpose, shared identity, and social norms of the military culture.
