“Luc” is the Latin word root meaning light. Of what significance is it that Salinger names Holden’s older friend Carl Luce

1 answer:

8 0

From the etymology of “luce” to “light” to Phoebe’s name conveying shining, it is apparent there is much beneath the surface of J.D. Salinger’s character’s titles. Whether he intended for Holden’s last name to signify his love for preserving innocence has been disputed, but its meaning cannot be more obvious than if it were written out for the reader.

Sherman wants to apply to an animal welfare agency as a photographer. Which kind of photos should Sherman include in his résumé?

Murrr4er [49]

C. Shots of various animals would be the best answer. Since Sherman is applying to an welfare agency as a photographer, the other options wouldn’t make as much sense.
