Answer:
are still loaded with meaning.
Explanation:
Hemingway's simple sentences are very meaningful. They clearly show the characters' opinions on a major theme of war. Passini tries to prove that war is the worst thing that can happen to people. The narrator does not agree because to him, defeat is worse as it means losing 'your home, your family'.
Although the characters express their ideas in short sentences, they convey their message in a powerful way and sound convincing to the reader because both Passini and the narrator make convincing arguments. Indeed, Hemingway's seemingly simple prose is loaded with meaning.
To a certain extent, parallelism helps to reinforce the message of these short sentences:
"They come after you. They take your home. They take your sisters." That's parallelism at its best.
Responding to this, Passini also uses repetition of words and structures: "Let everybody defend his home. Let them keep their sisters in the house.”
All these examples show how 'little' words can make a big difference.
It is false that a major characteristic of poetry is the compression of images into the fewest number of words. You can be as wordy as you want, there is no limit of words you can use.
