Answer:

Sowing is the title of the first book of Hard Times because personalities are being shaped or planted by the schools and institutions and parenting practices embodied in characters like Gradgrind. This is a reflection of the mechanistic logic and cold rationality of the industrial age in nineteenth-century England.

Explanation:

The first book's title sowing relates to the events, characters, and themes in the sense that Dickens was concerned with the miserable lives of the poor and working classes in the England of his day. He called this first book of the Hard Times novel "Sowing" because he is introducing the characters and it is like their personalities are being planted by all the institutions that are part of industrialization. Dickens thinks that industrialization is harmful to the minds and morality of the working classes because humans are turned into machines and they are schooled to suppress the development of their emotions and imagination.

The novel's first book conveys Dicken's central message about rationality in the Gradgrind character. Gradgrind believes that people should only act in their own interests through rational principles that are devoid of feeling and sentiment. For Dickens, this can lead to indifference to human suffering. This new logic or rationality comes about because of the mechanization of industrialization that reduces our human nature to productivity, wealth and greed at the expense of feelings, creativity, and freedom.

Should Prometheus be punished for bringing fire to man?
harina [27]

Answer: In Greek mythology, the Titan Prometheus had a reputation as being something of a clever trickster and he famously gave the human race the gift of fire and the skill of metalwork, an action for which he was punished by Zeus, who ensured everyday that an eagle ate the liver of the Titan as he was helplessly chained to a rock.

Prometheus (meaning "Forethought") was one of the ringleaders of the battle between the Titans and the Olympian gods led by Zeus to gain control of the heavens, a struggle which was said to have lasted ten years. Prometheus did, however, switch sides and support the victorious Olympians when the Titans would not follow his advice to use trickery in the battle.

According to Hesiod's Theogony, Prometheus' father was Iapetus, his mother was Clymene (or Themis in other versions) and his brothers were fellow Titans Epimetheus (Afterthought or Hindsight), Menoetius, and Atlas. One of Prometheus' sons was Deucalion, an equivalent of Noah, who survived a great flood by sailing in a great chest for nine days and nights and who, with his wife Pyrrha, became the founder of the human race.

In some traditions, Prometheus made the first man from clay, whilst in others, the gods made all creatures on Earth, and Epimetheus and Prometheus were given the task of endowing them with gifts so that they might survive and prosper. Epimetheus liberally spread around such gifts as fur and wings but by the time he got around to man, he had run out of gifts.
