Answer:

B. to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion.

Explanation:

The lines present in the question were taken from Shakespeare's Sonnet 130. <u>The two lines at the end, or the final couplet, are structured in a different way from the others because their purpose is to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion. Throughout the poem, the speaker is "criticizing" the woman he loves. </u>While Petrarchan sonnets were usually used to elevate women to an impossible status, comparing them to natural elements and concluding that they were always more beautiful, Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 does the opposite. The woman is a normal one, not more beautiful, sweeter, nor better smelling than anything else. <u>Still, at the final couplet, after all that criticism, the speaker says he loves her. Not only does he love her, but he won't lie about her. He loves her for who she really is.</u>

Write an essay of at least 200 words that explains the significance of Orwell's choice of a farm as the setting of his story.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

When Orwell saw a kid whipping a horse, he had an idea: "It struck me that if only such animals became aware of their strength we should have no power over them, and that men exploit animals in much the same way as the rich exploit the proletariat."

Hello, Animal Farm.

On Orwell's Animal Farm-originally Manor Farm-different animals represent different members of the proletariat (working class) or the Russian communist regime. We won't take you through all the details here (see "Symbols, Imagery, Allegory" and the "Character Analyses" for the full lowdown), but the point is that Orwell picked the setting of the farm because it would work well as an allegory.

At the same time, Orwell includes little details like, "the birds jumped on to their perches, the animals settled down in the straw, and the whole farm was asleep in a moment" (1.20). There's no allegorical purpose to these images; they just give the setting a sense of completeness (although may not exactly realism).

But why an English farm rather than, say, a Russian farm? Well, Orwell wasn't just criticizing Stalin. He was also criticizing the myth of Stalinism that intellectuals all over the West believed. By setting it in England, he brought it that much closer to home
