In this excerpt from Ingrid Jonker’s poem, “The child is not dead,” the “child” most likely refers to the struggle for freedom.

Jonker wrote her poem after going to the Philippi police station and seeing the body of a child who had been shot dead in his mother's arms by the police in the township of Nyanga in Cape Town. In 1960, 69 people were killed while marching to the police station to protest having to carry passbooks to travel in their own native country in Sharpeville, south of Johannesburg.

<em>The poem evokes the struggle and longing for freedom while being violently oppressed.</em>

However, if it is very big that it is no longer healthy then, it would be better to divide further the group.

Which word best describes the tone of “To His Coy Mistress”?
valina [46]
“To His Coy Mistress” is actually a poem that was written by Andrew Marvell, an author and a politician as well. This poem is spoken by a nameless man and dedicates this poem to a nameless woman as well. Therefore, I can say that the word that best describes the tone of this poem is longing. It would be the last option. Hope this helps.

ipn [44]

<u>Answer:</u>

The soliloquies and the character foils plays the role of revealing the personalities of characters within the play. A foil is a character that helps in highlighting the qualities present in a character by showing their contrasting qualities and the character traits. It helps in determining what the character in the play is and not about what he is not. It helps in the discussion of the characters and gives the readers idea of the contribution of these characters in the plot construction.
