"Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is a lonely poem, for our speaker finds himself far away from any other human being. He kind of digs this aloneness, however, and is glad that no one is there to watch him. We get the feeling that he'd rather be all by his lonesome in the freezing cold than back in the village. Nature helps make things even lonelier, too, for it happens to be freezing cold, snowing, and dark out there.

Answer:

One theme of this poem is that the beauty of nature mesmerizes the speaker on a snowy evening. The opening stanza of the poem states that the speaker is attracted to the dark woods filling up with snow, and he stops to take in the beauty of the scene. The quietness of the evening allows the speaker to hear the sound of the “easy wind and downy flake.” The line “The woods are lovely, dark and deep,” also reflects the speaker's appreciation of nature.

How does the quote, “Their prevailing frame of mind, then, is at once ardent and relaxed, violent and enervated” contribute to t
Monica [59]

Answer with Explanation:

The speaker depicts the Americans as unable to cherish the beautiful moments because they are <em>always in a hurry</em> to think about what other things they can accomplish due to short time. This shows their materialistic side that once they achieve one thing, they relax and, in just a moment, they become violent again to get more than they achieved.

They always want to achieve things easily <em>without thinking about the consequences of their actions</em> on others because they want to be <u>easily gratified. </u>They are not immediately contented nor do they find things perfect for their satisfaction. Thus, they are always<u> restless and anxious</u> and it makes them<em> unhappy</em> even if they have the abundance of things.

According to Ryan Buda why is Hrothgar, instead of Beowulf, the epic hero? *
kotykmax [81]

The characters of every story typically exhibit generalized traits that are collectively called archetypes. the traits of an archetype combine with events in the story to convey to the reader a particular moral or ethical message. One such archetype is the epic hero, who is often characterized by a connection to the gods and typically more physically and mental gifted than other characters in the story. The epic hero archetypes also find themselves on a quest or a voyage fraught with adversity and must overcome it in a way that highlights the moral ideal or value of their society. For years, Beowulf has been described as a prime example of the epic hero archetype. Dictionary.com gives Beowulf as an example in its definition of the term and enotes uses examples from the story of Beowulf to elaborate on the characteristics of epic heroes, so the belief is deeply ingrained.

The Epic Hero Archetype Fails to Explain Beowulf's Actions


But a closer look at the facts reveal a problematic shortsightedness in this assessment. An analysis of Beowulf’s history, his personal feats of strength and triumph over Grendel and Grendel's mother are epic, indeed. Yet the story doesn’t end there. After all the events that highlight the characteristics indicative of a epic hero transpire, Beowulf, now in his old age, unwisely fights a disgruntled dragon by himself and pays with his life. Nothing in the archetype of an epic hero justifies this reckless lack of judgement.

Give connotative meaning of flood​
tigry1 [53]
Too much of anything can also be called a flood. Whenever it rains and rains and rains, there's the danger of a flood, a type of disaster where water is out of control. Because a flood is so powerful, people use the word when overwhelmed by other things. ... Words with similar meanings are deluge and overflow.
