Answer:

The House Behind the Cedars can be considered a work of American Realism because it takes place in the aftermath of the Civil War, with an emphasis on setting, dialect, and the depiction of an ordinary town and characters. Chestnutt does not incorporate fantastical or imaginary elements and chooses to depict how life has and hasn’t changed in a small southern town. His characters use dialect to represent how it would sound to hear them talk, and the plot of the story depicts ordinary events.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Temka [501]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

I would say the correct answer is C. While Roosevelt does not name those who are the enemies of the freedom of religion, the image represents those nations that suppress or deny that freedom. Envisioning freedom of religion by depicting different people who stand and pray isn't really accurate because Christians are those who typically pray standing or sitting, so it illustrates the Western worldview. This image would have been more accurate if it presented some people standing, others kneeling down (such as Muslims), some sitting and meditating, and yet others not praying at all (such as atheists).

According to the scholars, the english languages is tipically divided into how many historical periods?
Rainbow [258]

The English language is the result of the blending of several languages into one. These are the stages in the formation of the language:

- Old English: first appeared during the early Middle Ages (550-1066 AD). It was a Germanic dialect spoken by the Angle, Saxon and Jute invaders of the ancient Roman Britain. It became predominant and also adopted several words of Brittonic and Latin in its <em>lexicon</em>.

- Middle English: in 1066 the French Norman William the Conqueror invaded and subjugated England. Old French Norman would be the language of the Royal Court and the civil administration until the 16th century (1150-1500 AD). During this time a large influx of French and Latin words entered the English lexicon. Nowadays, 28 percent of English words come from French and 29 % come from Latin but the grammatical structure remains undoubtedly Germanic and the most commonly and most often used words are Germanic.

- Early Modern English: it gradually replaced French in the court and administrations between the years 1500 – 1750 AD. Three was a Great Vowel Shift during this period, when pronunciation of vowels completely changed but no one knows yet why or how it occurred.

- Late Modern English: 1750-1900 AD. The modern language was already formed with an influx of non-European words coming from the British Empire colonies.

- Contemporary English 1900 – now. Than language as we know it nowadays.

What does grass likely symbolize in these lines from the poem? A child said What is the grass? fetching it to me with full hands
Ksenya-84 [330]

A child said What is the grass? fetching it to me with full hands; 
How could I answer the child? I do not know what it is any more than he.

I guess it must be the flag of my disposition, out of hopeful green stuff woven.

Or I guess it is the handkerchief of the Lord, 
A scented gift and remembrancer designedly dropt, 
Bearing the owner's name someway in the corners, that we may see and remark, and say Whose?
