This story is not a usual one. It talks about how our views and ideas can be judgmental and hurtful. It puts us (readers) in a point where we start thinking about our own perspectives.
Explanation:
This story has two main components as symbols - belief and honesty. The author wants to describe the entire scene in darkness. He excludes elements that give us 'hope' in our lives.
The woman who the narrator loved deceived him. She portrayed to be a faithful, honest and innocent woman who loved him deeply. This was an impression that everyone had about her including the narrator.
The story starts off with an exclamation of grief, where he yells 'I had loved her madly!'. From this part of the story, he continues to talk and express his love/emotion towards his lover. He continues to suffer in her loss, goes to places where he can relive moments, visits her grave and sits there for hours. He reads the messages on the tombstones where the story ends.
The entire course of story makes us understand that he understand how she deceived him from the beginning till the end.
During the American colonial period, nearly every colonist was puritanical, and they were very strict in their abiding by the Old Testament in the Christian Bible. However, American romanticism basically went against every practice of Puritanism, creating works of absurd fictions, such as epics and fantasies. Edgar Allen Poe is one of the most renowned romanticism authors in the world. Shakespeare is another, even though he obviously wasn't American.
Answer:
Nativism denotes political movements and attitudes in the 1800s that were characterized by a particularly sharp rejection and fight against new immigration, and protection of native inhabitantes, that is, of the white majority that made up the American society of the time. The main distinction was between people who were born in, and / or considered to be culturally belonging to America, and newcomers or their successors, especially if they were also perceived as culturally foreigners.
In this context, the Mexican-American War was unleashed by the intention of the United States to protect the American colonists living in the Republic of Texas, who wanted to join the United States as one more state. Thus, by protecting the "natives" from foreign interests, in this case Mexico, the conflict was unleashed.
