The rabbi is called a shadow swept away by the wind. what rhetorical device is employed

English

This rhetorical device is called metaphor.

Rabbi Eliahu has lost his son after three years they spent together in concentration camps, and now inquires about him. Frozen and broken by cold winds and snow, by the SS soldiers' mistreatment, but most of all by the fact that his son is missing, this kind man shows up and goes away quietly, like a shadow. Wiesel uses this metaphor to imply that his existence in this cruel, inhumane world is transient. Maybe the next moment he would be a corpse in the snow, just like so many others.

This happens in chapter 6 of Elie Wiesel's novel "Night".

What does Nick speculate about when Gatsby looks at Daisy’s child in surprise?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: Gatsby is surprised when he sees Daisy's child, because he refuses to accept that Daisy moved on with her life.

Explanation:

The novel <em>"Great Gatsby"</em>, written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is about a man who wants to reunite with his former lover, a woman named Daisy.

When Gatsby and Daisy parted, Daisy moved on with her life. She got married and had a child. At the moment they meet again, her life is completely different. Gatsby, on the other hand, still hopes that their relationship can be restored. He loves Daisy, and, as seen in the story, is ready to do anything to have her back. The narrator, Nick, tells us how Gatsby throws parties, stares at the green light near her house, all in hope that she will notice him. In doing so, he fails to realize that both her feelings for him and she as a person have changed. This is why Gatsby is caught by surprise when he sees Daisy's child - a physical proof that his future with Daisy is unlikely to become true.
