Auden's poem called "Musee des beaux arts" and Brueghel's painting: "Landscape with the fall of Icarus" both address human kind's indifference to suffering.  I think the painting creates a more powerful emotional response in the viewer than the poem.  In the painting the farmer continues to plow while Icarus is falling, something completely out of the ordinary is happening, Icarus symbolizes human failure and the impossibility to fly, which definitely brings suffering, but the farmer continues working.  You can clearly see the farmer's indifference, he is even facing backwards, the viewer cannot see his expression since he is facing backwards.  The painting is very powerful, since you must pay attention to detail to understand it, it is surprising once you understand that the image of Icarus symbolizes failure and suffering, it is a very important mythological event but nobody seems to be paying attention to it.  While reading the poem, I felt it was much more rational and did not show the farmer's indifference, it does not involve the reader in the way the painting involves the viewer.

How does Walter speak different from jem and scout
beks73 [17]

Answer:

he four years difference between Scout and Jem is certainly apparent in their behaviors. After Scout has been reprimanded by Miss Caroline for explaining to her that Walter does not want to take the quarter he has been offered by her because she has "shamed" him since there is no way he can repay this quarter since "He's a Cunningham." Naively, Scout assumes that Miss Caroline understands what she means; however, the teacher, who is from another part of the state, does not understand Scout's inferences. Instead, she perceives Scout as insolent and punishes her, humiliating Scout before her classmates, who break into "a storm of laughter."

Once outside at lunchtime, Scout quickly seeks revenge against Walter, knocking him down and rubbing his nose in the dirt. But, Jem comes by and tells her to stop, observing the unfairness of her attack, "You're bigger than he is." Scout retorts, "He's as old as you, nearly....He made me start off on the wrong foot." Then, when Scout explains the circumstances of her rage, Jem, much like Atticus would do, asks him if his father is Mr. Walter Cunningham from Old Sarum and generously invites Walter to have lunch with them, explaining,

"Our daddy's a friend of your daddy's. Scout here, she's crazy--she won't fight you any more."

Certainly, Jem is more mature and diplomatic than Scout, and of a less belligerent nature than she. For instance, Scout indelicately criticizes Walter's use of syrup on his food, and she contradicts Calpurnia who scolds her, saying that she should treat company well. "He ain't company, Cal, he's just a Cunningham." After she leaves to return to school she vows retaliation upon Calpurnia.
