How has ivans view of death changed throughout the novel

English
1 answer:
Natali [406]3 years ago
6 0

He starts having to struggle with fear, discomfort, and isolation. This marks a shift for a man used to having an always pleasant life. Still, he's hopeful at first that the doctors can get rid of whatever condition it is that's bothering him and restore life to normal. Ivan becomes isolated from he world around him. All that seemed to matter before stops mattering. Ivan's death forces him to painfully re-evaluate his own life, illustrating Tolstoy's belief that only death can reveal life's meaning. When he says "Death is finished," he is referring to the spiritual death that has characterized his whole life. It's the final moment of realization, and the one that brings everything to a conclusion. Ivan sees that his life was wrong. He actually tries to figure out why he wants to live, and realizes the very life he's been wanting to go back to all this time has been not so great. Perhaps he hasn't lived his life as he should. After, he feels compassion for his family, and recognizes that by dying he can at last do them a service. Now he's ready to die, and even happy to do it. No more tension.

What are two ways to help organize sentences
Anit [1.1K]
<span>Everything you need to make a good  meaningful sentence (and grammatically correct, ofcourse), is to follow common rules. Do not forget to provide your sentence with complexity, but you dont have to make them too complicated, I mean you need to use key words, they will make your thought completed. And the second point is that you need to properly organize the sentence using correct word order. I hope this helped. </span>

Why do you think tituba was the first one blamed for witchcraft
maria [59]

Tituba was the first one blamed for witchcraft because she was a slave, the lowest of the low, the bottom class, below even the poor and homeless. Not only did this make her an easy target of blame for the girls, but to make her situation worse, she had been known for having known voodoo from her home in Barbados. She had been the one to stir the pot, and to sing songs in her native tongue. It is for all these reasons that the blame of witchcraft was thrown at Tituba. I hope that this answer helped!
