Why is a writer required to use ONLY present tense verbs in LITERARY response?

English
1 answer:
timofeeve [1]4 years ago

Answer:

Literary works, paintings, films, and other artistic creations are assumed to exist in an "eternal present". Literary works are considered to exist in the present tense. So, when writing about writers or artists as they express themselves in their work, you are required to use the present tense.

Hope this helped.

Based on what you have learned, is the idea of “separate but equal” facilities consistent with the Fourteenth Amendment? Use evi
mariarad [96]

Answer:

In no way was the idea of "separate but equal" consistent with the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment, which basically establishes equal rights between African Americans and whites in the country, and admits the citizenship of black people.

The racist governments in the south of the country sought a mechanism to, without manifestly contravening this amendment, segregate the African American population and separate it from the white population. To do this, they sought to comply with the rights established in the Constitution, but through different services from those of whites, and of much lower quality.

Thus, with the complicity of the judicial systems, they violated the principle of equality of the Constitution, protecting themselves in an alleged legality of the "separate but equal" system.
