Over time and through repetition in literature, __________ has become a symbol for death.

1 answer:

4 0

Overtime, black and night (best association with darkness) and winter are common literary symbols for death. In literature overtime, night has been considered as the strongest symbol for death. Winter on the other hand; although it is not associated with darkness, it is true to one of Robert Frost’s on his "Stopping by a Wood on a Winter's Night" . Examples of literary works that can justify that these words are used to symbolize death.

"It's the light they believe that kills/we drink and load again and let them crawl into the darkness we're headed for"--- Shooting Rats at the Bibb County Dump by David Bottoms

"Do not go gentle into that good night Old age should rage against the closing of the day Rage, rage against the dying of the light." ---Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night Dylan Thomas

What are your thoughts towards the action of the United States that took away the right of people who were Asian but not Japanes

Elza [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think this question is rooted in WWII when the Japanese were being put into interment camps- so I will answer based on that. The United States, regardless of race, has no justification to take away the rights of its citizens. Even in times of war, someone needs to be accused of being a spy with actual hard evidence before they should be subjected to that.
