<em>Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America</em> is a work by Benjamin Franklin, in which he exposes his ideas on the Native American people of the United States. The text is particularly significant because it is among the first American written works to promote tolerance.

In it, Franklin presents the idea of allowing the Native Americans to continue their traditional way of life. Even more surprising, considering the time period, is the fact that Franklin suggest that the colonists can learn a lot from the Natives, and that their lack of "civilization" does not mean they are any less human than the European colonizers.

finlep [7]

The answer to this question is definitely C.

If you sent this poem to a woman and meant it to be a compliment, you'd soon get your head handed to you. In pieces.

And yet many poems were written with the words coral, white (like fresh fallen snow), hair [a really touchy subject for any man to make a comment about]. breath -- it's wonder he didn't say anything about feet.

D is wrong. He doesn't want to show her in an uncomplimentary light. He wants poets to stop using cliches.

A is wrong. What beautiful things in nature? She is not as good as any that are mentioned.

B They are not positive qualities. Not in these lines.

Siddhartha: Final reflection
maks197457 [2]

Answer:Throughout his excursion, Siddhartha learns and experiences many unique lessons that will shape him into the man he so desperately wants to become: a man of peace and tranquility. He has his ups and downs but after encountering a beautiful woman, Kamala, and learning the methods of love and compassion, he transforms into a singular character. This was an infinitesimal yet, pivotal moment that displays how Siddhartha was guided back to his purpose after being led astray by wealth, greed, and temptations. It changes the tone, diction, and message of the remainder of the story.

Siddhartha left the ‘Illustrious Buddha’ to seek further knowledge and gain a better understanding of why there were so many issues plaguing mankind.  After seeing Kamala, he sought her counseling and wanted to learn the art of love. She instructs him to find a ‘job’ and obtain more ‘money’. This leads to Siddhartha to use his ability to read and write with a merchant that would make him very wealthy. This is ironic because he was once in a similar state of wealth and prestige as a Brahmin before he left them. He begins to become more enamored with Kamala and becomes blinded by love. His disposition and attitude towards life changes completely. Siddhartha undergoes a seriously contaminating transformation that was influenced by the temptations of this world. The entire reason of his journey has changed. He has no purpose.

The moment Siddhartha decided to follow Kamala’s advice, seeking her guidance on love, he began to deviate from the path of his journey. His urges and temptations are too strong and it tarnishes his inner peace. This antithesis is used to connect Siddhartha’s internal and external conflicts. By committing himself to Kamala, he has completely lost sight of his own intentions. His journey began when he left his father and his village to seek enlightenment on his own. It included a series of painful and meticulous searching and labor, but he gained much knowledge from it. Now Siddhartha is enjoying himself, gambling and drinking frequently.  ‘He had no feeling,’ Siddhartha was truly lost.
