Answer:

Jay Gatsby

Explanation:

In "The Great Gatsby," the author Francis Scott Fitzgerald makes a comparison between Gatsby and Jesus Christ to illustrate Gatsby's creation of his own identity. Thus, Gatsby becomes the model of perfection that he conceives for himself (a "Platonic conception of himself") as a young man and persists faithful to it in spite the obstacles from society. Finally, Gatsby's refusal to recognize his self-conception brings him to ruin.

We don't need the Nazis to destroy us. We are destroying ourselves, what does he mean by this
NARA [144]

This is from the Diary of Anne Frank. Mr. Frank is the one who says this line. The Jews in hiding have been fighting over food. Because of the German forces raiding farms and taking most of the food for the soldiers, there is very little food to around. It's even harder for those in hiding to get food. Mr. Frank sees the fighting over the food as a way the Jews are destroying themselves. They cannot be divisive if they want to survive. If they are at war with each other inside of their hideaway, they'll eventually destroy themselves, the Nazis won't get the chance.

In at least one hundred words, discuss the concept of time as it relates to Our Town.
weqwewe [10]

Thornton Wilder's who is our Town incorporates unusual theatrical devices which are for creating a play which was radical in comparison to temperance plays of the time and the melodramas. The uniqueness on the narration of our Town uses asides to directly connect with the audience and to break the fourth wall. 

The design set is so minimal such that it requires the audience to imagine the settings and props. Play breaks away from demands participation of the audience and from restrictions of realism. The whole of the play Wilder builds a theme of universality when referencing ideas and feelings that transcend location and time.

Through the use of flashbacks, he manipulates time, which emphasizes more on ideas that human life is being fleeting. He represents large numbers and presents town which is far away perspective to illustrate the idea such that human life is important in the context of the universe.
