In atleast 150 words, explain the symbolic role that the hunter plays to Sylvia in this story
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer :

In the short story "The White Heron" by Sarah Orne Jewett,  the hunter symbolizes the invasion of civilization and technology. He, in a way, represents the “the great red-faced boy who used to chase and frighten her” in the town. He is symbolic of the town and the townspeople that Sylvia has left behind.

In the beginning of the story, Sylvia perceives him as the enemy when she hears his whistle and is immediately aware that it is not friendly like a bird's whistle but aggressive like a man's. She is quite alarmed when the hunter tries to talk to her and fears how her grandmother is going to react once she takes him home. The lines "Sylvia was more alarmed than before. Would not her grandmother consider her much to blame? But who could have foreseen such an accident as this? It did not seem to be her fault, and she hung her head as if the stem of it were broken, but managed to answer "Sylvy," with much effort when her companion again asked her name. " aptly describe how she feels at this point.

The hunter carries a gun and talks about killing birds and then stuffing and preserving them in order to add them to his huge collection of birds. Sylvia instinctively perceives him as a threat to nature. His mere presence threatened the safety of the birds in their wild habitat.

In the end, Sylvia chooses her love for nature over the lure of money and human companionship and does not reveal the location of the white heron to the hunter.

What symbolizes light, dark, and color in “All the light we cannot see” By Anthony Doerr
Temka [501]

Answer: Generosity

Caring for others

Multiculturalism

Empowerment and perseverance

Explanation: Although I see all four of these themes in Anthony Doerr’s award-winning novel All The Light We Cannot See, the importance of caring for others rings loudest. That the author can connect a young blind French girl with a young orphaned German boy growing up under Hitler’s influence, speaks to the power and possibilities of communication across geographic and political divides.

Which inference about Oona is supported by details in these sentences? (1 point)
Orlov [11]
<span>The inference about Oona that is supported by details in this sentence is that she used to live at the great fort with Ivan and the Russians. Ivan IV was nicknamed "The Terrible" because of his rotten character but a very efficient ruler. He is a very paranoid person until Anastasia became his wife. Whenever Anastasia was around, he was really good to people and a lot of good things has happened during his term. When his wife died, he changed for the worst. During his reign, his goal was to decrease the number of nobility of his country and allow common people to be vocal about their intentions and voices.
