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 is the main conflict in the austere academy?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
The conflict in the Austere Academy is an external conflict. It begins when Coach Genghis makes Violet, Sunny, and Klaus Baudelaire run laps every night from sundown to sunrise. He made the Baudelaires paint a large glow in the track for them to run around. Coach Genghis is a pseudonym for the mean and cruel Count Olaf. Count Olaf is the main reason of the conflict because he is trying to capture the Baudelaires so he can steal their fortune. The climax in the book is when Count Olaf or A.K.A Coach Genghis arrives at Prufrock Preparatory School and becomes the new Gym teacher. The resolution to the conflict is that the Quagmires ( the Baudelaires Friends) help get Count Olaf busted for trying to steal the Baudelaires Fortune, but however get themselves in to extreme danger.
