Answer:

The underlying theme of the poem is the slavery or the racial discrimination of the blacks in the American plantations.

Explanation:

Jean Toomer's "The Song of the Son" is a poem that displays the racial discrimination of the slaves that are working in the fields and plantations in the past. The given excerpt of the poem also mentions "<em>A song-lit race of slaves</em>", but even if the sun has set on that phase of time and history, it is upon the current generation not to forget the "<em>African- American experience</em>" that their forefathers had gone through in their time.

Read the third stanza of "The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls."
Ksenya-84 [330]

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was born on February 27, 1807 and died on March 24, 1882. He was an American poet and educator whose works include "Paul Revere's Ride", The Song of Hiawatha, and Evangeline. He was also the first American to translate Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy and was one of the four Fireside Poets from New England.

“The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow describes a coastal scene. The tide rises, and the tide falls. Its twilight, a bird is calling, and a traveller is leaving the shore, heading for a near town. Now it's dark, the sea is shouting, and the waves erase the traveller's footprints from the shore. Despite this disconsolate perspective, the dawn does come again. There are signs of life everywhere. Horses are ready and raising to go; a hostler is calling out. Sure, the traveller will never return to the shore because he's dead, but the tide rises again, and then… well, the tide falls.

The statement that best describes the purpose of the word “nevermore” is:

C) The word helps create a more dramatic, resolute tone.
