The connotative meaning of the word “trunk” in the poem is “a container”. In the poem “<em>Verses Upon the Burning of our House</em>” by Anne Bradstreet (1666), the author expresses the traumatic <u>loss of her home and her possessions</u>. After awakening to the tragic event, she goes outside and watches her house and possessions burning down. Once the fire has been put out, she mourns for the physical items destroyed: the <em>trunk </em>and the <em>chest</em>, everything she “<em>counted best</em>”; her “<em>pleasant things</em>”.

Can someone describe Yala Korwin-Polish
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Yala Korwin was a Polish artist who survived work camp during WWII. After the traumatic experience of WWII Korwin immigrated to the United States in 1956,  

Korwin was born in 1923 and was an exceptional student allowing her to be immediately accepted into her prioritised art institute. Due to WWII, in 1942 she was forced to leave and to prioritise her life before her interests. Korwin's mother was a bookkeeper and her father was a history teacher with a Jewish religion at the time. Korwin, her mother and two sisters attended a ghetto whilst her father hid in a photo studio. Not long after both her parents were sent to a concentration camp. By using her friend's sister's paperwork she was able to land herself with "light laboratory work". It turned out the work was an ammunition factory, but still remained to work there for two and a half years until war ended in 1945. As soon as war ended Korwin left for France where her cousins and Aunt was located. This is where she met her husband Paul and had her two children.
