Criminologists have developed many theories as to why people commit crimes. If you check the History Learning Site, it lists one prominent theory that explains how people are influenced by the environment around them, especially the environment they grew up in. Conversely, others believe that one's biology and genetics determine an individual's potential to become a criminal. Other theories suggest that humans are innately self-interested and will commit crimes if they perceive the benefits of the crime to be greater than the risks to themselves. Another theory maintains that people commit crimes based on their social environment and the people they associate with. Still others believe that individuals commit crimes because they are unable to achieve success in life through legal means. Ultimately, the reason that people commit crimes is likely a combination of many different theories and is highly dependent on the individual situation and characteristics of a particular criminal.

What does the phrase "the edge of the sea concerned / with itself" most strongly
exis [7]

Answer:

The phrase "the edge of the sea concerned / with itself" most strongly  suggests:

A) The sea continues to break on the shore despite Icarus's drowning.

Explanation:

"Landscape with the Fall of Icarus", by William Carlos Williams, is a poem that describes a painting  by Pieter Brueghel. The painting depicts the mythological character Icarus falling from the sky into the ocean as his wax wings are melted by the sun. The poem and the painting convey the same idea that the world goes on without consideration for the suffering of a being. Not one person, one thing, was disturbed by Icarus's fall. As the lines say, "the edge of the sea concerned / with itself", meaning the ocean itself is not disturbed. Icarus has just fallen inside it, but the sea continues to break on the shore as if nothing has happened, as if no one had died.

Evaluate Harper Lee’s rendering of Bob Ewell. To what extent does Bob Ewell fit the description of the redneck stereotype? What
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Bob Ewell perfectly fits the redneck stereotype. He corresponds to the social stereotype of not being educated and being of the working class. He also fits the cultural stereotype of rednecks by demonstrating blatant and base bigotry as well as uncouth comportment (when he is called to testimony). Ewell is also an alcoholic and displays violent tendencies.

This matches the redneck (poor white Southerner) formula to near exactitude.  

Even his name (Bob) and daughter's name (Mayella) seem to fit this image.

Bob Ewell is intended to represent a particular role of prejudice and racism in Southern society. Though it serves as a symbol, his character can be considered more than a mere stereotype... as it says something critical about his society. Societies are complex.

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)
