Who is Mark Twain and what novel is this question linked to.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn novel is one that addresses important themes in American Realism – Reality and social injustice.

The author is Mark Twain and during his lifetime he was a Journalist, soldier and a riverboat pilot.

The novel was costumed such that the use of common dialects and slang terms was easily found hence its genre termed Realism.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Twain uses the literary technique of satire in the novel to picture social injustices of the 1900's.

A satire is a literary device of writing or art which principally ridicules its subject often as an intended means of provoking or preventing change. Humour, irony and exaggeration are often used to aid this.

Answer and Explanation:

In "Flowers for Algernon," the main character is Charlie Gordon, a man who undergoes surgery to improve his intelligence. Before the procedure, Charlie's I.Q. was 68. At a certain point in the story, three different doctors try to explain to Charlie what I.Q. is, but they have different opinions on the matter.

<u>Dr. Nemur says the I.Q. of a person shows how smart that person is. Dr. Strauss, on the other hand, claims that Dr. Nemur is wrong, and that an I.Q. shows how smart a person can get. That it is like the numbers written on a measuring cup - we still need to fill the cup with something. Confused, Charlie talks to Dr. Burt, who says the other two doctors could be wrong. According to Burt, I.Q. can measure several different things, including things a person has already learned, but it is not a good measure for intelligence.</u>

Read the passage from The Odyssey - Elpenor.
adell [148]

For Odysseus and his men, the loss of Helios, the sun, symbolizes a loss of C. Hope.

In poetry, light ( such as the sun, the moon, candles, stars) often symbolizes good, hope, and freedom.

In the lines <em>"Never the flaming  eye of Helios lights on those men  at morning, when he climbs the sky of stars, nor in descending earthward out of heaven"  </em>the reflected idea is that they do not see the sunrise or sunset anymore, thus they are eventually condemned to a total loss of light, that is to say, hope.

What is the mood of the excerpt? foreboding welcoming sorrowful optimistic
iogann1982 [59]

Not having the excerpt here, I can only help you to find the answer.  Mood is the feeling you get when you read the passage.  Foreboding is fearful or apprehensive.  Welcoming is or can be joyful and accommodating or making someone feel comfortable in their surroundings.  Sorrowful is sad or mournful.  Optimistic is positive, hopeful, and confident about your future.  As you read the passage, which of these are you feeling or closely matches your feelings.
