How does history affect current pieces of writing

English
1 answer:
cupoosta [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

"History influences how human beings think, and how they think influences how they write. We see the influence of history in fiction as well as nonfiction. Even writers who create mythological worlds — such as the Middle Earth of J. R. R. Tolkien — incorporate elements of “real” history, such as kings, queens, knights, castles, wars, etc.

“Harry Potter” seems to have been influenced by England’s history of class consciousness, with the elites looking down on the common Muggles.

Nearly all major works of literature have been influenced by human history, to some degree. Some lyric poems that focus on themes like nature and love are exceptions to the general rule."

zysi [14]

Answer:

‘The Lottery’ and ‘Harrison Bergeron’, two short stories depicting dystopian ways of life were written in the mid-twentieth century just after the second world war and in the midst of the fight for equality in western civilization. These stories display commonalities and differences in areas such as their authoritarian atmosphere, perceptions of equality, and based on their general arch and themes. To begin, the two stories parallel in the government ruling and corresponding atmosphere. Both stories have an authoritarian government in place with a strong set of rules regulated by methods of control and propaganda. Within ‘The Lottery’ for example, the governing body established an annual randomized public execution under the guise of it being a sacrifice for the crops.

In Shelley's poem Ozymandias statue has the inscription, "Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair" yet there is nothing but san
Bumek [7]

Answer and Explanation:

1. The poem shows that we have no control over how we will be remembered in the future. This is because Ozymandias wanted to be remembered with grandeur and ostentation that he possessed when he was alive, however, his statue makes him remembered as a boastful and unimportant, since both the sculpture and the surrounding environment are in ruins.

2. To preserve the statute, Ozymandias could have commissioned the sculpture with a more durable material and provided something that would protect it from environmental aggressions.
