Why aren't harrison's parents more emotionally impacted by the death of their son?

English
1 answer:
Sauron [17]3 years ago
8 0
In Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron, Harrison's parents are incapable of being emotionally impacted by their son's death due to their numerous handicaps.

Because they are so handicapped, they are unable to concentrate or focus on something for more than a moment. Their handicaps prevent them from thinking clearly or remembering details. As a result, although they initially feel sad, they quickly forget what happened and continue watching television.

Colin is comparing a pair of sonnets for a paper he’s writing. He is looking at the following sections: …Never did sun more beau
dlinn [17]

Answer:

B. The two sections have different rhyme schemes and the same meter.

Explanation:

When you arrange properly the poems that Colin is comparing, you can see that the rhyme scheme in the first one is ABAB and in the second one it is ABBA, so they have different rhyme schemes, but as they both are sonnets they have to have the same meter, so they share the same iambic pentameter that has 10 syllables per verse.

Here the arranged poems with their rhyme scheme:

Never did sun more beautifully steep  A

In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill; B

Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep! A

The river glideth at his own sweet will… B

Much have I traveled in the realms of gold,A

And many goodly states and kingdoms seen;B

Round many western islands have I been B

Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold… A

2. Brueghel's painting "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" and Auden's poem "Musée des Beaux Arts" focus on the same part of the
kondaur [170]
In Brueghel's painting, the fall of Icarus is happening in the back; no one is even noticing it. Brueghel's painting shows that how a tragedy may not even be noticed by those who are not directly affected by it.

Auden translates Brueghel's painting a little differently, however. To Auden, the fall of Icarus IS being noticed by the plowman and the sailor; Auden says that they are too busy to deal with the disaster and get on with their work. Auden says that Icarus falling is "not an important failure" to them.

Auden's interpretation of the painting is therefore much more negative than Brueghel's initial work.
