Answer:

Ivan Ilyich starts to focus on the good things in his life.

Explanation:

The character Ivan Ilynch seemed to have had an epiphany, making him ponder over his past deeds, which he is not very proud of ("fell through the hole"), and finally understanding why he should focus on benevolent deeds instead ("at the bottom was light").

This epiphany is better evidenced when Ilynch notices he "is really going forwards and suddenly becomes aware of the real direction", which promptly makes him reflect about "what is the right thing?".

Kay [80]
Yes, the lady in Cullen's poem is a deeply prejudiced and ignorant person, who doesn't want to really get to know black people as they are. Those prejudices seem to be so deeply engraved in collective memory that black people are associated with slavery, menial jobs, and intellectual inferiority. Hurston argues that media have the power to solve this problem. Hurston writes: "It is assumed that all non-Anglo-Saxons are uncomplicated stereotypes. Everybody knows all about them. They are lay figures mounted in the museum where all may take them in at a glance. They are made of bent wires without insides at all. So how could anybody write a book about the non-existent?"

Similarly, in Cullen's short and poignant poem, the lady believes that even in heaven black people will be assigned the same kind of duty that they have on Earth, in her opinion. It's as if they aren't capable of doing anything else, nor are they entitled to anything else above that.

Edgar Allan Poe create the mood of melancholy in this excerpt of his poem, "The Raven"? "Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortals ever dared to dream before; But the silence was unbroken, an the stillness gave no token, And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, "Lenore?" This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, "Lenore!" Merely this, and nothing more."
