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.

Which of the following is NOT an opinion expressed by the men on Joe’s porch?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

C. Sykes is a violent man who has killed three women

Explanation:

This is the question regarding Zora Neale Hurston's short story "Sweat".

The story tells about Delia, a wash-woman, who is married to Sykes, an abusive, unfaithful, violent husband.

The particular question refers to the scene where few local men, after seeing Delia carrying laundry on her pony, start talking about her.

They first noticd how hardworking she is and how fifteen years of bad marriage changed her appearance.

Then they start talking about her husband, Sykes, blaming him for mistreating his wife, expressing their lack of nice words for him.

However, although considering him violent, they don't state that he has killed three women; they only say the amount of beating Delia took was enough to kill three women, which can be seen from the line:

"He done beat huh ‘nough tuh kill three women, let ‘lone change they looks,” said Elijah Moseley.

You may say that a story's theme is its central message. That's what the author wants readers to take away from the novel. The essay's theme comes after the introduction. The main part of an essay is the body, which contains the proof for the thesis.
