Answer:

Vietnam Veterans Memorial is a monument of 8000 square meters. It honors the members of the US Army who have died and are missing. Construction and manufacture was the cause of the controversy, which led to an additional construction. The memorial wall that was the cause of the controversy was designed by architect Maya Lin. The problem would be that the wall is black and without ornaments, then, it was lacking in resolving the national conflict over the war. It did not reflect the real circumstances that would speak about conflicting opinions about the war, as well as the minimalist design of the monument that diminishes the value of sacrifice of US soldiers. Some officials, among whom the most vocal were James Webb and H. Ross Perot, called it "the black wall of shame," "slapping in the face of those who served." At first they were supporters of Maya Lin's design, but later they became opponents seeing how the design looks. They also called it a "Nihilistic stone slab". Their claims were supported by the fact that Maya Lin is a young Asian student, and as such is not qualified to design such a monument.

Question 2 What disability provokes wise men into not meeting death gently? Answer in a short paragraph response, citing text ev
Setler79 [48]

In "Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas, the disability (incapacity) that provokes wise men into not meeting death gently is:

- Their incapacity to leave a mark in the world, to make a difference.

In the second stanza of the poem "Do not go gentle into that good night," the speaker says that wise men know very well that death is natural and will happen to all of us.

Yet, there is something that does not allow them to just meet death gently:

<em>Though wise men at their end know dark is right, </em>

<em>Because their words had forked no lightning they </em>

<em>Do not go gentle into that good night.</em>

<em />

When the speaker says, "their words had forked no lightning," what he means is that these wise men do not wish to die because they still haven't left their mark in the world.

They want to fight death, stay alive, so that they can make a difference.

Therefore, we can say that their incapacity to leave a mark in the world is what provokes them into not meeting death gently.

What about a modern performance of a Shakespearean play could be changed without affecting the play's meaning?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

We could change the language and adapt it to reflect the contemporary English we use nowadays. That would make the play more understandable, especially for the young people and wake up their interest for the theatre.  

We could change the setting, that is, time and place of some plays and adapt it to contemporary surroundings, without changing the topic of the plays, as Shakespearean problems and inner struggles are still present in the 21st century, only in different ways.

For example, we could change characters' professions or some circumstances without changing the plot of the story. Or, perhaps, try to represent some contemporary family issues, by readapting Hamlet into a boy who is fighting against his stepfather.

_________ in literature occurs when a person, place, or thing is used to represent an abstract idea or concept. Symbols make wha
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Symbolism

Explanation:

In literature, the use of a person, place, or object to represent or signify an abstract idea by making their meanings different from their original literal meaning is symbolism. In symbolism, a person, place, or thing doesn't necessarily have to be attached to a single meaning. Symbols are used in our everyday life, for example, some sports teams name themselves after animals just to make their name fearsome.

A dove is a common symbol used as a concept for peace, it is also used to end conflict. Ordinarily a dove is supposed to be white bird, but the use of symbolism has given a dove another literal meaning, which makes us see a dove as a sign of peace and tranquility.
