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.

What ironic situation does Shapiro describe in paragraph 3?
Ann [662]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read The Lessons of Salem, by Laura Shapiro

What ironic situation does Shapiro describe in paragraph 3?

Answer:  The irony of having those who “confessed” to witchcraft spared and those who defended their innocence being killed.  

Explanation:

The Puritan witch hunts of 1692 would get confessions by torturing the suspects to justify the hunt itself, and those who would refuse to confess would end up being hung to death. The irony lies in the fact that none of the suspects had anything to do with witchcraft, and the proceedings of the trials were especially prejudicial to those who were honest.

Which sentence contains an error in parallel structure?
Leya [2.2K]

In the sentence that has a parallel structure, the error is given in option (B). The business manager is bright, extremely creative, and generous with her thoughts.

<h3>How does parallel structure work?</h3>

A stylistic device known as the parallel structure is a grammatical formation made up of two or more clauses, phrases, or words that have the same length and grammatical form.

Parallelism is comparable to it. By maintaining the rhythm of the lines, sentences with a parallel structure consist of a number of phrases or clauses that begin and end almost in the same way.

These structures are repeats that provide the readers with a fun opportunity to take in and comprehend thoughts, facts, and concepts.

Due to the way it exploits word patterns and connects them to one another, parallel structure improves readability and fosters writing fluency.

It gives the appearance of sophisticated language, particularly in literature and advertising. Parallel structures also synchronize, repeat, and stress the writers' words and ideas.
