Transcendentalism was a philosophical movement that held its ground in America for a good half a century. As the believers of this movement were against organised religion and believed that knowledge can be gained with the power of contemplating about the spirit and soul. The transcendentalists were against all kinds of social evils and unjust attitudes that prevailed in the American society at that time. Similarly the problem of slavery and woman emancipation for example greatly irked them. Because transcendentalism found its place only in literature and became a literary movement, the followers of this movement could not really solve the problems but they did voice them in their work, hoping it will open people's eyes.

Please write a paragraph (5 sentences) about how you feel about crayons.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

I feel that crayons are not as good as coloring pencils or markers, because they do not draw nicely. If you go over it, it will have an erase-like effect that will leave a spot white. Crayons are better for smaller children who are not allowed to use pens or markers, because it lets them have a more creative imagination. They are easier to use on bigger spaces, rather than adult coloring books that have small spaces to color.

ser-zykov [4K]

What is really stated in this passage is that absinthe tastes like licorice, and that everything else that a person waits a long time to try also tastes like licorice. What this passage actually means, however, is that things are better (or seem better) when you wait for them. For example, a driver's license is not an extraordinary thing in itself, but it seems so much better when a person has had to wait his or her whole life to obtain it. The freedom of being on the road may even also be described as "sweet"- like licorice.

The things that people wait for in life (unless they are food-related, technically) do not actually taste like licorice, but it relates the literal action of the story to the figurative meaning behind it by relating to the reader's understanding that things seem sweeter when they have been looked forward to for a long time.
