Answer:

<h3>Realizing that the world is filled with strangers.</h3>

Explanation:

  • In the poem "Second Estrangement", the poet presents the image of an innocent child who realizes that the world is filled with strangers. She says that one does not realize how scary and estrange the world is until he/she is lost and all alone.
  • Through the lines "<em>only to see the face  look strangely down, utterly  foreign, utterly not the one  who loves you</em>", <u>the poet presents the idea of seeing the reality of life. </u>Just like the child, everyone of us think we are in a safe place until we see the reality of life.
  • Then she ends the poem with the lines "<em>How far the world you knew, & tall,  & filled, finally, with strangers."  </em>to ironically bring the message of life's cruelty and reality.

"This fair country alone is settled by freeholders, the possessors of the soil they cultivate..."
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Did some research and I hope this helps

Explanation:

In a way, Crevecoeur wanted America to be a "perfected Britain". He liked some of the aspects and characteristics in Europe, but others he felt should be done away with. "As in Europe, of great lords who possess everything, and of a herd of people who have nothing." Crevecoeur disliked that in Europe, it seemed that those higher up in the economy controlled everything, leaving nothing for lower class groups. He sought change for America stating, "The rich and the poor are not so far removed from each other as they are in Europe". But there were also some qualities Crevecoeur hoped would be utilized by the colonists, such as the European's etiquette. He saw the "back settlers" of America as unrefined and barbaric, and hoped that others would not follow their example.
