In at least one hundred words, explain the significance of repetition in Bob Dylan’s “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll.”

English

In this song, Dylan repeats the lines "Take the rag away from your face / Now ain't the time for your tears."

He uses these lines throughout the song in order to tell the listener that *this* isn't what they should be upset about. Don't get upset that this woman was murdered. Don't get upset that she was only a maid. Now isn't the time to get upset about these things.

By the end of the song, however, this line changes. It now becomes "Bury the rag deep in your face/ For now's the time for your tears." Dylan says that now is the time to cry because justice was not served. Zanzinger only got six months for the murder of an innocent woman.

Therefore, the repetition of these lines allows Dylan to indicate the true tragedy of this story.

Answer and Explanation:

Dobbs' descriptions of the brain's functioning in adolescents make sense, mainly because Dobbs shows this functioning by proving it with data and evidence, in addition to providing a very punctual explanation. With that, we can better understand why teenagers act the way they do. In addition, through Dobbs' words we can understand that the brain undergoes changes that promote positive and negative results, which are totally related to the way adolescents will live even in adulthood.

Even after reading the interview, the question that remains in my mind is whether there is a possibility that the brain brain will never change and present individuals in adulthood who still exhibit this inconsequential and crazy behavior that many teenagers exhibit.

Discuss the poet's language and style in binsey poplas​
Nataliya [291]
Binsey Poplars is full of unusual language, internal rhyme, alliteration, assonance, sprung rhythm and repetition. Hopkins developed his own unique sprung rhythm, based on a much older metric tradition with roots in Greek song and Welsh poetry.
