What is the setting of this passage by Jack London? The Call of the Wild Buck lived at a big house in the sun-kissed Santa Clara

Valley. Judge Miller’s Place, it was called. It stood back from the road, half hidden among the trees. Glimpses could be caught through the trees of the wide, cool veranda that ran around all four sides of the house. The house was approached by gravel driveways, which wound through wide lawns and under the connecting boughs of tall poplar trees.

<em>The Call of the Wild, </em>was written by Jack London, an American author who was born in San Francisco in 1876. This story tells the experiences of a huge St. Bernard dog called Buck, who after living a laid-back and peaceful life in California is kidnapped by a gardener and taken to the Klondlike region in Canada to pull sleds in the snow to go gold hunting. In the end, Buck not only changes owners several times, but most of his life and experiences take place in the northern regions of Canada and in the end, despite his love for his latest master, John Thornton, who saved him from abuse, Buck feels a deeper calling to return to the wilderness and ends up as the leader of a pack of wolves. However, in this particular excerpt of the story, the setting in which this portion takes place is the Santa Clara Valley in California, where Buck lives with the Millers, his adopting family.

Nikolay [14]
In "The Carp," by Yun Wang, the use of the carp to represent something deeper is an example of Synecdoche. The carp is used to represent the pain and injustice of her father’s imprisonment. “The Carp is dedicated to Wang’s father, and many of the poems in her little book tell stories from that period.

Remember, a symbol is an object that takes on a meaning other than its literal meaning.

In the poem, the carp is literally a fish that takes on a deeper meaning. Confucius named his son Carp, and his son died young. The speaker's father was imprisoned and beaten. Therefore, the carp represents sadness and pain.
