Walt Whitman subscribed to the organic theory of writing (the style must be organically part of the meaning, not imposed mechani

cally in any way). How does he achieve this in “Song of Myself”?

  • Walt Whitman achieved the organic theory of writing in his "Song of Myself" by addressing a variety of topics (fashion, politics and food, among others) in his poem and by approaching all of them from the notion of nature by using metaphors, so as to imply that things happen “organically or naturally” and <u>not mechanically or artificially.</u>  Here is an excerpt to illustrate this idea:  

<em>“This is the grass that grows wherever the land is and the water is, </em>

<em>This the common air that bathes the globe.” </em>

  • Here Whitman compares the nature with which grass grows where water is with the process of learning. He implies that it's important to learn through experience and not through books or teachers.

Which excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone shows a cause-and-effect relationship? “The group traveled up the Nile in two
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

<em>Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.</em>

Explanation:

The cause-and-effect relationship is a type of relationship where one thing or event makes another one happen. The first thing/event is referred to as the cause, and its consequence is the effect.

The excerpt from<em> The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone </em>that shows this relationship is the fourth one: <em>Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history.</em>

We have two events - the 19th-century scholars mastering the three kinds of Egyptian writing, and them having the key to more than three thousand years of Egyptian history. The former is the cause of the latter: if they didn't master Egyptian writing, they wouldn't know that much about Egyptian history.
