Why did southern landowners develop the convict-leasing system

English
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]3 years ago
7 0

The correct answer is B: Southern landowners needed a new form of cheap labor once slavery was outlawed. After the Civil War, and once the Federal Government stopped its support of Reconstruction, white Southern elites were allowed to regain power. They inmediately tried to restore the status quo ante and reduce the condition of African Americans to servility. Since they could not reenslave them, they used legal shenanigans in order to impose forced labor upon them.

What literary device does Collins mock in “Litany”?
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Metaphors

Explanation:

'Litany' by Billy Collins is a love poem containing a series of ordinary and extra-ordinary metaphors. The metaphorical comparisons employed by the poet makes it a light- hearted poem with a profound directive to humanity. The poet begins with the metaphors like 'bread and knife', 'goblet and wine', ''dew on morning grass', 'burning wheel of sun', 'white apron of the baker', 'marsh birds' and many more to describe and compare his beloved while he concludes it by himself comparing to the "moon in the trees' and 'blind woman's tea cup'. The entire poem is a chain of metaphorical analogies and symbolizes his praise and admiration for his beloved.

In at least 150 words, identify a theme in "Through the Tunnel" and explain how the setting of the story contributes to that the
topjm [15]
In "Through the Tunnel," the negative connotations and dangerous imagery associated with the "wild bay" help to convey the theme that growing up can be a painful and scary process.  Jerry longs to grow up and to fit in with the "older boys -- men to Jerry" who swim and dive at the wild bay rather than remain on the "safe beach" with his mother, a beach later described as "a place for children."  The way to the wild bay is marked with "rough, sharp rock" and the water shows "stains of purple and darker blue."  The rocks sound as if they could do a great deal of damage to the body, and the stains are described like a bruise.  It sounds painful.  Then, "rocks lay like discoloured monsters under the surface" of the water and "irregular cold currents from the deep shocked [Jerry's] limbs."  This place sounds frightening and alarming and unpredictable.  Given that this is the location associated with maturity, with the time after childhood, we can understand that the process of growing up and becoming a man is a time that is fraught with dangers and fear, because Jerry endures both in the "wild bay."  hopes this helps
