English

Rasek [7]3 years ago
8 0
The author who would become famous as Mark Twain started out in life as Samuel Clemens. Born and raised along the Mississippi River, Clemens would start out in life as a steamboat pilot.
This book, which was written after he was a famous writer, tells the story of his life on the river. In the first part, he is a cub pilot under his mentor, Horace Bixby, who teaches him how to navigate the treacherous river. The very very wordy Twain mixes it up in this part of the book, describing both the river, steamboats, steamboating, etc., and what happens to him as a pilot. This is an interesting part of the book because it includes a fair amount of commentary about life in America after the Civil War, reflecting on the differences between the North and the South.

Answer:

One of the central themes of Romeo & Juliet is passion, which manifests equally in love and in violence. Both are powerful and conflicting forces throughout the story, but ultimately, it's love that conquers hate. To prove this point, compare the deaths of Romeo and Juliet to those of Mercutio and Tybalt.

The presence of an authoritarian government and strong censorship are realistic aspects of this story. On the other hand, Juan's attitude of censoring his letter is something that seems unreal and a nightmare.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The story takes place in a dictatorial government, where censorship is an attitude taken to control the population.
  • This kind of attitude is common in this type of government.
  • Within this story, Juan is unable to send letters to his girl.friend, as these letters are always intercepted and censured.

To prevent this from happening, Juan decides to work in the government's censorship department, to be able to send his letters. But he becomes so dedicated to the work that he censors his own letter without thinking twice.

This behavior is unrealistic and it seems like a nightmare to think that a government can control people to the point where they ignore their feelings and desires to maintain the control of the government.
