Well, obviously the answer is 'Gregor transforming into an insect'. It doesn't seem real that a person could just turn into a bug, therefore that is the answer, it is surreal.

The answer is: Gregor transforming into an insect.

Franz Kafka´s novella, <em>Metamorphosis</em>, presents us with his famous character, Gregor Samsa, who one day, at the very beginning of the story, woke up to find himself, for no apparent reason, turned into a horrible, and hard to define, kind of bug.

Although Kafka´s work is not usually characterized as surrealist, there are passages where his treatment of absurd themes certainly exploit oneiric, fantastic, unexplainable, and spontaneous manifestations of the imagination (all traits of surrealism) for the benefit of the narrative.

Match each writer to the romantic trait reflected in his poems.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

  • Samuel Taylor Coleridge: Fantasy and supernatural.
  • William Wordsworth:  Healing power of nature.
  • William Blake: Mysticism and spirituality.
  • Thomas Gray: Aspirations and potential of all human beings.

The Romantic period was a literary movement that arose as a reaction to the Enlightenment. While the Enlightenment emphasized concepts such as logic and reason, the Romantics attempted to rescue those "human" traits that were less remarked upon. They focused on the individual, the magical, the supernatural, the traditional and the emotional. All of these writers contributed, in different ways, to this period.

How does media coverage of infectious diseases affect our perceptions of them?
alukav5142 [94]
The news media coverage of infectious diseases makes them seem much worse than they really are. For example the Ebola outbreak was made to seem much worse than it was. People feared catching the virus but very few people did. So in conclusion news coverage of infectious diseases just scars us and makes the disease seem like a terrible plague
