What odd behavior does the Reverend Dimmesdale display in his speech to Hester on the scaffold

English
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Dimmesdale defends and praises Hester in his speech, which would be very strange behavior for a reverend like him.

Explanation:

Hester has an illegitimate daughter and refuses to say who the child's father is. As she lives in a Puritan society where patriarchy and conservatism reigns, she suffers prejudice and insults from the whole society. However, Reverend Dimmesdale (a cleric who should abolish Hester's sin) gives a speech in favor of Hester, where he praises her and reinforces her qualities. This is very strange behavior, which made the whole community suspicious.

A narrative essay about the best story my grandparent ever told​
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

My grandfather was in Indian army. He usually told me stories of their life in army when I was kid. So here is one of the best story of my life and story that every Indian heart will feel proud after reading this.

My grandfather was participated in India-China war 1962. We lost the war thousands of soldiers injured my grandfather was shot by bullet in right arm and also they had very deep knife cuts on face and back but he survived as fighter he was always. Then he was transferred from border to Delhi Army Hospital for urgent medical assistance. One slider lost his both hands in war (lets called him Mr.Indian) and he was right beside my Grandfather. After some days in hospital while recovering Indira Gandhi came to visit soldiers. Although Mr.Indian lost his both hands but still he was stable and charm on his face like nothing was happened.

Conversation between Mr.Indian and Indira Gandhi and my Grandfather was listening.

Indira Gandhi asked Mr. Indian: How are you Sir ?? with joint hands. As soon as Mr. Indian heard this he started crying. Indira Gandhi asked him”Why are you crying ?Do you have any problem ? any thing what you want please do not feel alone I am here for you”. Also she further told him that “Please don’t care about money and family I will take care of all the things”.

Mr. Indian replied “ Madam I have huge respect for you. You are god for me .It was my dream to meet you once in life But see we are meeting first time in my life but my bad-luck is I don’t have my arms to join in front of you.”

My eyes where so numb and become even more numb when my Grandfather told me the moral of the story “The true nationalist”.

Now I am in Time Zone where people are chanting "Death to India" and "We will war India" (JNU Issue). I urge all to compare both incidents this will increase your Indian feeling by at-least by 1 %.

Salute to all war heroes and all true Indians.

Miss you Grandpa.

Someone write a poem
lord [1]

Answer:

No Man Is An Island

Explanation:

No man is an island entire of itself; every man

is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;

if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe

is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as

well as any manner of thy friends or of thine

own were; any man's death diminishes me,

because I am involved in mankind.

And therefore never send to know for whom

the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
