How are the poems "The Lady's Dressing Room" and "The Dean's Provocation...." similar?

English

Answer:

O C. Both are satirical writings.

Explanation:

In Jonathan Swift's <em>"The Lady's Dressing Room"</em> is a satirical work on the feminine gender and the disastrous state of her room. By juxtaposing the beauty of the women to the mess of the room, the poet is ridiculing and criticizing the filth left behind after a woman cleans up and beautify herself.

Lady Mary Wortley Montagu's <em>"The Dean's Provocation for Writing the Dressing-Room"</em> is also a poem about the degrading position of women. In this poem, a doctor visits a prostitute but blames her for his inability.

These two poems work on demeaning the stature of a woman and her inferiority, despite the men being at fault. <u>These poems are a satirical work on how society deems the female gender and emphasizes the way women are treated in general.</u>

Answer: The sun has a wondrous effect on icy birch branches.

Explanation:

Robert Frost in this excerpt speaks of how birches are affected by ice and then by the environment around them from how the birches are bent by ice to how the icy branches are then affected by the wind, rain and sun.

At the end Robert describes the effect the sun has on the branches and notes how the sun enables the birches to shed to snow in such heaps that one might think a part of heaven has fallen. As heaven is considered so beautiful, it must mean that the effect the sun had was a beautiful and wonderful one.
