"Paradise Lost" is an epic poem in blank verse by English author John Milton. It tells the story of the Fall - Adam and Eve's sin that cost them paradise. After committing the sin, Adam and Eve are expelled from the Garden of Eden. Before they are led out, however, the Archangel Michael puts Eve to sleep and takes Adam to the top of a mountain, where he is shown the future of mankind. Adam sees how sinful his children, his children's children and so on will be. He sees how people will kill to satisfy their own pleasures and needs. But he also sees salvation and redemption, especially when God sends His own Son to die for humanity. Adam is sad for the death his sin has brought upon Earth, but happy to see the redemption that will come.
Answer:
Bronte creates sympathy for the girls at Lowood school by employing the literary device of personification and starkly describing the girls' less than favorable living conditions in the school.
Explanation:
- Bronte described Jane's first morning at Lowood school during a winter, the water in the pitchers the girls are meant to use for their morning ablutions are frozen and yet they have to use the water like that.
- During breakfast they were served burnt porridge they could not eat and consequently had to suffer through the morning to lunch time without eating anything, an event that Bronte suggested happened more than once.
- The girls are denied simple and harmless luxuries like keeping their natural curls and wearing clean stockings, a fact that ironically contrasts with the way the proprietor's family present themselves in artificial finery.
- When disease struck the inhabitants of Lowood Bronte described the dismal atmosphere using personification: "while disease had thus became an inhabitant of Lowood, and death its frequent visitor; while there was gloom within its walls; while its rooms and passages steamed with hospital smells." All the makes the reader feel sympathetic towards the girls, as they are living in conditions that are not fit to be lived in.
