The correct answer is on the bust of Pallas.

In Poe's famous poem, "The Raven," the protagonist is alone in his room when he hears a knock. It turns out to be a bird, a raven who was knocking on the window to be let it. Once he is, he perches itself on the bust of Pallas, which is quite symbolic in itself. Pallas is goddess of wisdom, according to Greek mythology, so when the raven sat on her sculpture, it started saying 'wise things' to the protagonist.

The protagonist is wondering whether he will ever see his loved one again and whether he will manage to get over her (given that she died), but the raven's only word is Nevermore.

stira [4]

Answer:

The difficulty faced by Miller while writing 'The Crucible' was that he lacked the quality to describe mildly the environment of witchcraft trial and relate it to the Communist trials.

Explanation:

'Why I Wrote The Crucible: An Artist's Answer to Politics' is an essay written by Arthur Miller. The essay was written with a purpose to bring to notice the reason why Miller penned down play 'The Crucible' in the face of Communists trials.

In paragraph 11, Miller states that during the time of Communist trials, many writers were becoming so imaginable like McCarthy and Miller that they presented the situation through their writings and plays.

When Miller states, that for him writing about witchcraft trials at the time of Communists trials was an act that lacks the tool. Miller states that he lacked the tool of presenting and relating both the trials mildly so that he may not present himself as a Communist party or non-Communist party.

What’s “City upon a hill”?

Fantom [35]

If you are asking what the saying means then here is answer one:

1. Many conservatives or people who hold traditional values often refer to America as the “city upon a hill” since it interprets as superiority, almost to say that America is set above other nations.

If you are asking about “The City Upon A Hill” By John Winthrop then answer two is correct for you:

2. “The City Upon A Hill” is a sermon [oration, lecture on biblical topics] called “A Model of Christian Charity”, which states that they (Puritans) intended to live so well, so righteously, that everyone would see that there was a right way to live. People would want to be like them. They would adopt their version of religion.
