The sentence in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy's <em>The Death of Ivan Ilyich </em>that shows that Ivan Ilyich's son is still innocent and uncorrupted is "His son had always seemed pathetic to him, and now it was dreadful to see the boy's frightened look of pity".
In this novella by Leo Tolstoy, Vasya, Ivan Ilyich's son, is presented as an uncorrupted character. <u>He is the one who actually feels sad for his father's suffering</u> before he dies at the end of the book. At the same time, Vanya is one of the few characters whom Ivan feels compassion for since <u>his son has not fallen into the trap of a society full of inauthentic people</u>. In other words,<u> Vanya is presented as a genuine and caring child: he remains innocent in a society where everyone is false. </u>

The answer is that the Pope used the reductio ad absurdum or mock-epic genre to weave humor into the poem, The R ape of the Lock.
The mock-epic genre resembles the epic in that its central concerns are serious and often moral. Although it is the idea of its style,it deviates from the epic in the fact that the approach must now be satirical rather than earnest is symptomatic of how far the culture has fallen.
Answer:
South Africa is a country located at the southern tip of Africa. It has had a rich colonial history since the seventeenth century. In 1652 the Dutch arrived who founded a refreshment post on the Cape. After a century and a half of Dutch colonization, the Cape Colony was taken over by the United Kingdom. As a result, a large number of Dutch-speaking settlers, known as Boers, migrated inland with the Great Trek and founded several Boer states, of which the South African Republic and the Orange Free State were ultimately the most important. These republics were conquered by the British in 1902 in the Second Boer War and united together with the Cape Colony and Natal in 1910 to form South Africa. In the 20th century, South Africa was overshadowed by apartheid, a system of racial segregation that systematically disadvantaged the non-white population. In 1990, apartheid was abolished and in 1994 Nelson Mandela was elected South Africa's first black president. It is a country with diverse population groups and eleven official languages, including Afrikaans, which is related to Dutch. The country is a parliamentary republic with three capitals and is one of the most developed countries in the continent, but poverty and crime rates remain high.
