In Petrarch's sonnet 90 regarding true love, he expresses the following ideas: his love for Laura -one of the characters- does not fade with time; age doesn't matter to him. And secondly, because she has not returned, loving her was so painful.

Francesco Petrarca(original Italian name), was born in Arezzo, Italy, in 1304.

By the year 1327, Petrarch fell in love with a girl named <em>"Laureta"</em>, who was the inspiration for most of Francesco's poetry. Some author's question the existence of this woman, but she really influenced the emotions of the poet, reflecting his feelings in its sonnets.

Later in his life, Petrarch traveled through Europe, to meet with Dionigi da Borgo, who gave him a copy of the book <em>Confessions</em>, of Saint Agustine.

Answer:

dear friend,

The English is important because it helps communicate ideas and what you're trying to say on a daily basis. it's important to continue to study and learn the English language as we grow to encourage being able to communicate well and even academically in different social settings such as the classroom, a job, an outing with a friend, etc. You can also improve by reading, doing research, paying attention when you're being spoken to, etc.

sincerely, (your name)

How does changing sentence structure from long to short and choppy help build suspense?
labwork [276]
Changing the sentence from a very long sentence into a short and choppy helps the suspense by not giving the reader a lot of information and making them really think and wonder.
For example:
"The stranger watched, a look in his eyes and this feeling spread throughout my body." 

or

"There was a man watching, his blue eyes had this look in them that made me shiver with fear. His pale face held no emotion and made him seem as if he was just a corpse standing on his own."

The second one might sound better, yes, but the second one really makes you think and really builds the suspense.
"Who is this stranger? What does he look like? What feeling spread throughout their body?"

So instead of knowing a lot about this stranger, you know little to nothing and it really makes you want to know more, and definitely build the suspense.

How did nationalists respond to the great depression?

If this was about Japan, they called for expansions into other territories and launched military campaigns and the country became more militaristic. They invaded China and seized Manchuria.  This would lead to invasion and occupation of other Asian countries as well.
