How is the subject matter and conflict affected by the structure of the poem in Cremation of Sam Mcgee

English
1 answer:
Mars2501 [29]3 years ago
7 0
The poem has a ring structure - that is, it begins and ends with the same stanza. This technique is precisely what makes it so interesting, as we the cremation is introduced first in the title, then in the first stanza, and reiterated with the last, repeated stanza. Once the conflict is resolved, we read the final stanza (which was also the first) with relief. It even gets a humorous overtone, as we know now that Sam never really died, therefore the morbid cremation from the poem's beginning never happened either.

Answer:

Newspeak, doublethink, and The mutability of the past

Explanation:

1. Newspeak. Newspeak is the official language of all party members, as the purpose is to eliminate all thoughtcrime.

2. Doublethink. Doublethink is very common amongst the Party, and quoting from CliffNotes, “doublethink is the act of holding, simultaneously, two opposite, individually exclusive ideas or opinions and believing in both simultaneously and absolutely. Doublethink requires using logic against logic or suspending disbelief in the contradiction.” The three slogans inside the novel, “War is Peace,” “Freedom is Slavery,” and “Ignorance is Strength,” are all examples of doublethink.

3. The mutability of the past. As Orwell writes in the beginning chapters III and IV, Winston encounters in his memory that Oceania actually allianced with Eurasia and fought against Eastasia, yet all broadcasts of the party suggests that Oceania had always done the vice versa. Also, he and his comates have had no memory of Big Brother until very lately, yet documentations have stated that Big Brother has been influencing Oceania since the 1930s.
