My head is hands and feet. What does this statement from Walden by Henry David Thoreau mean? The sense of touch is not that impo

rtant. It is important to keep continuously busy. Thinking is more important than physical activity. Walking is a good way to clear one’s head.

The third statement "It is not important to keep continuously busy" is what was trying to be conveyed in the story Walden by Henry David Thoreau <span />

Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian, two of his greatest works are: "Resistance to Civil Government" (also known as "Civil Disobedience") and "The Mask of Anarchy". His ideals can be summarized by this statement: “the Government should not have more power than the bestowed by its citizens”.

Henry David Thoreau was even imprisoned for refusing to pay taxes in protest for the Mexican-American War and the slavery.

Thoreau was an idealist; he opposed the oppression and tyranny from the government and I think that more people like him should exist for we need more free thinkers to defend the common citizen from the oppressive government we sometimes have.

In the first Chapter of Walden, "Economy," Thoreau explains how and why he wanted to live alone and why simplicity would help him to be more free. With less luxuries, less property, and less material things, a man is more free to do as he pleases.

By stating  "My head is hands and feet"  from Walden by Henry David Thoreau, the author means that:

 It is important to keep continuously busy.

Which line from A Vindication of the Rights of Woman conveys the essay’s main theme?
Keith_Richards [23]

I believe that the line which could be considered as main theme is: “They ought to cherish a nobler ambition and by their abilities and virtues exact respect”.

 

Wollstonecraft's purpose for writing the essay “A Vindication of the Rights of Women” was to criticize the society’s view of women. She considered the flaws they saw in women as artificial and pleaded for a better education of women. Wollstonecraft’s main statement is that women should be respected, not only admired for their beauty, which is shown in sentence: “They ought to cherish a nobler ambition and by their abilities and virtues exact respect”.

Read the passage from Rain Myths.
AnnyKZ [126]

The sentence from the passage which is the best example of the feature found in a myth is "Near the beginning of life on Earth, Shen Nong, who was the Lord of the Wind, made many journeys over our world."

Myth refers to the traditional stories which include supernatural beings or events, concerned with the history of the people or explaining the social or natural phenomenon. For Example folk tales, fable, lore and so on.

Therefore, the above instance suggests that in <em>"Near the beginning of life on Earth"</em>, where no co- life existed with Shen Nong, he is considered to be the existence on earth. On the other hand, <em>"Lord of the Wind"</em> contains a supernatural figure which bestows the power related to wind. Hence, this sentence is considered to be the myth as it can relate to false idea or belief.
