English

prisoha [69]3 years ago

Although a specific example of an understatement in Lost in the Kitchen was not found, an understatement in literature is a statement which lessens or minimizes the importance of what is meant. For example, if one were in a desert where the temperature was 125 degrees, and if one wee to describe thermal conditions saying "It's a little warm today." that would be an understatement

in at least 200 words discuss how nadine gordimer's political beliefs are reflected in this story. what literary devices does sh
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: Gordimer´s political beliefs are reflected in this story in a way that she puts her view with the device os negatie dialects. For example: “art is the negative knowledge of the actual world” (“Reconciliation Under Duress” ). Rather, art explores what is not known and as Adorno explains, “art does not become knowledge with reference to mere immediate reality” . Throughout her novels, Gordimer avoids references to the “immediate reality.” As Ettin explains, we never get a full picture of the plot and instead the reader must orient himself by  considering what has not been said. As Gordimer draws on the theories of Adorno, she portrays  the strong appeal of this German, Jewish theorist, further distancing herself from the genre of black authors and redefining the objective of a political novel.

Read the passage from A Doll’s House.
Blizzard [7]

“The same little featherhead!”, “That is like a woman!”, “What is this! Is my little squirrel out of temper?”

The are the three best options that show Torvald sometimes treats Nora like a child. Calling Nora a "little featherhead" and "little squirrel out of temper" gives her appearance of a person who is not very wise or intelligent. It makes her seem innocent and ignorant much like a child would be. When Torvald says, "That is like a woman!", it is not just a statement of fact. Torvald sees women as innocent, ignorant and helpless much like a child would be. The other two options do not fit because that do not show that Torvald thinks of Nora as a child.

2pac had a 'net positive' influence
Leni [432]

Answer:

2. He’s the man who single-handedly transformed a common epithet for a criminal into a source of masculine strength.

After recording two albums – the muddled 2Pacalypse Now and the slightly improved Strictly 4 My . – Shakur unveiled his crew  L.I.F.E., an acronym for The Hate U Gave Little Infants Everybody. At the time, it seemed like an unnecessary variation on the “gangster” trope that dominated West Coast rap at the time. However, his reimagining of a word that the Oxford Dictionary defines as “a violent person, especially a criminal” into an positive attribute resonated. 2Pac’s vision redefined the word “thug” into a man who triumphs over systemic and societal obstacles. By the end of 1994, Cleveland quintet B.O.N.E. Enterprises had renamed themselves Bone Thugs-N-Harmony; the word has been since been adopted by Young , Slim and too many others to mention.
