How does this final stanza of ah are you digging on my grave use irony to disappoint the speakers expectation?

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

It uses irony to show that despite her expectation of being missed by someone, no one seemed to have the same sentiment. rather, she found that her dog was the one digging, not because he missed her but to bury his bone. He also added that he had forgotten she was buried there.

Explanation:

The final stanza of the poem "Oh, Are You Digging On My Grave?" by Thomas Hardy shows a dead woman expecting someone would remember her. The lines goes like this-

"Mistress, I dug upon your grave

To bury a bone, in case

I should be hungry near this spot

When passing on my daily trot.

I am sorry, but I quite forgot

It was your resting-place."

She heard someone digging her grave and then she began guessing who that would be, her husband 'who must have missed her' or her family or even her enemy. But it was none of them but rather her dog. Even then, she was happy to know that at least someone remembered her. Ironically, the dog wasn't there for her but rather to hide his bone in case he gets hungry on his walks. This irony in the scene's reality and the narrator's expectations shows how she must have been missed by someone. But it was nobody except her dog who wants to hide his bone not because he felt anything for her. Not only that, he also mentioned that he had quite forgotten that she was buried there.

Explanation:

“TO BE ON A WAR”

1914 – 1918

We think of war, we think of a conflict.

Not one, not two, but three allies, against three adversaries.

Also called the triple alliance and the triple entente.

Each battle has a winner, as does a loser.

And always a leader behind everything.

Marne, Galipoli, Verdun, Somme, Cambrai;

These battles were important in this war.

All the soldiers felt pain, fear, of not knowing if they were going to survive the war;

With our knees together, we crawled as we could through the mud.

We get to the flashes of lights;

We turned around and started walking towards that distant rest.

Russia to the east, France to the west, and Germany had the best.

Schlieffen counted on German victory , in the West would be quick;

And that Russian mobilisation would be slow.

The power to convince goes in what the person can see.

If it is something imaginary, you will not trust,

that is why propaganda was made of.

Please write a book summary

gladu [14]

Answer:

Les Misérables by Victor Hugo

Explanation:

So this one is fairly different from the other one, it's a book that was originally written in French. It's about a man named Jean who goes to jail for a long time for stealing bread. He later gets out years later, and struggles finding shelter and a job because he used to be in jail. Anyways, he meets a guy who offers him shelter, and Jean later steals his silver to sell it, the man finds out but kind of allows him because he knows he's suffering.

This is all I know so far because I'm not done reading it, (it's a very big book) but I like it so far.

Also the book was written in 1845, it's old, but interesting. :D
