Explain why this quote is meaningful.

"Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy."

I'd say this quote is meaningful in a sense that Ralph wanted to bring an end to innocence and the darkness that dwells in one's heart. "and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy." I think this line means that he also wanted true and honest people to fall, being call "wise friend called piggy" I think means that when he is "wise" this isn't meant to be taken seriously. This is a sarcastic wkrd to describe him, for he is in fact not wise, because he wants to basically bring the end to all good that would come to man. I also chose (C) Connect because I have connected the meaning of the quote to the reader.

Which best describes one theme of both "A Man Said to the Universe" and "Sympathy"?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

C. An individual's place in the world is determined by his or her environment.

Explanation:

Dunbar describes what is it like being a black male in the 1800s America in his poem Sympathy. He gives a metaphor to the caged bird and how deadly the bird wants to get out after it sees a beautiful landscape.

Stephen Crane's A Man Said to the Universe shows the significance of the existence. And this is the existence of a human-being. This human-being is an individual and the poem is about his conversation with the universe. The man wants a recognition from the universe.

The summaries show that the correct answer is the third one - an individual’s place in the world is determined by his or her environment. Indeed, in both poems individual challenging is present.

Hope this helps!

_____ refers to the dictionary meaning whereas _____ refers to the association or emotional meaning. connotation, denotation fig
Murljashka [212]
Denotation <span>refers to the dictionary meaning whereas </span><span>connotation refers to the association or emotional meaning</span>.


Figurative is incorrect - it uses words or expressions which differ from their literal meaning.

Emotional is not a term that is used and therefore doesn't make sense.
