What opinion about Russian society does Leo Tolstoy express in this excerpt from The Death of Ivan Ilyich? The awful, terrible a

ct of his dying was, he could see, reduced by those about him to the level of a casual, unpleasant, and almost indecorous incident (as if someone entered a drawing room defusing an unpleasant odour) and this was done by that very decorum which he had served all his life long. He saw that no one felt for him, because no one even wished to grasp his position. Only Gerasim recognized it and pitied him. And so Ivan Ilyich felt at ease only with him. He felt comforted when Gerasim supported his legs (sometimes all night long) and refused to go to bed, saying: "Don't you worry, Ivan Ilyich. I'll get sleep enough later on," or when he suddenly became familiar and exclaimed: "If you weren't sick it would be another matter, but as it is, why should I grudge a little trouble?" Gerasim alone did not lie; everything showed that he alone understood the facts of the case and did not consider it necessary to disguise them, but simply felt sorry for his emaciated and enfeebled master. Once when Ivan Ilyich was sending him away he even said straight out: "We shall all of us die, so why should I grudge a little trouble?"—expressing the fact that he did not think his work burdensome, because he was doing it for a dying man and hoped someone would do the same for him when his time came.

Could you leave the link for the article you need to analyze? However, to give the review of someting you would need to know the facts of War. This might be helpful. The United States government has identified 384 battles that had a significant impact on the larger war.  Many of these battlefields have been developed—turned into shopping malls, pizza parlors, housing developments, etc.—and many more are threatened by development.  Since the end of the Civil War, veterans and other citizens have struggled to preserve the fields on which Americans fought and died.  The Civil War Trust and its partners have preserved tens of thousands of acres of battlefield land.

How does Hamilton convey his ideas about the limited power of
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

He points out that the judiciary cannot undermine the other two branches, but they can both undermine it.

Explanation:

Alexander Hamilton in Federalist Paper No. 78 explained that the judiciary was by far the weakest of the three branches of government. He explained that the executive had the sword to control the community while the legislative arm had the purses and the authority to make laws.

The judiciary, on the other hand, had neither the power nor the money to control the community. To balance this weakness, he suggested that the office of the judges be a permanent one, so that they are not easily replaced by a new executive government.
