MAVERICK [17]3 years ago

What lies at the root of Parris character is the idea of binary oppositions. Parris is either convinced that the individual is the agent of Satan or that the person is in accord with him to whatever he does. Parris either view himself as discarded or in total control. Like Salem, he sees the world much in binary oppositions. The quote is relevant to Paaris because there is no complexity or complexed consciousness. He believes either the church will suffer, or he will have complete devotion from his followers. Parris states a distinct line that the one who disputes will be cast into hell or either he will get a total submission from his followers.

Through his statement, he directly attacks the Proctor. Proctor has represented himself opposite, as not an advocate to Parris and that he is not in prescription with the organized religion of the church. To such opposition, Parris forms the base of “either you are with me or against me”. For Parris threat and fear is the sole way to ensure loyalty and faithfulness. Hence, Proctor does not believe in such a way.

Who is Ha? Based on the poem “Birthday Wishes" and one other poem
omeli [17]

Answer:

Ha is a 10-year-old girl who wants to feel close to her family but instead feels very alone. She has three older brothers, but does not really play with them or feel close to them. In the poem “Kim Hà,” she says her brothers tease her, calling her names like “River Horse.” She says she “can’t make her brothers go live elsewhere,” which makes me think she wants to be separate from them. But then in “Birthday Wishes,”she says she “wishes she could do what boys do.” It’s like she wants to be close to them but at the same time she doesn’t, so she pushes them away. It’s the same with her mom. In “Kim Hà,” she says she still “loves being near her mother” and is always just “three steps away.” But then in “Birthday Wishes,” Ha says she wishes her mother wouldn’t “chide her,” and doesn’t talk about feeling close to her at all. I think she wants to be close to her family but doesn’t know how.
