Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Though a certain group may tend to do similar things that lead someone to hate them, this cannot be made true for all members of this group. This is called a "blanket generalization", which may be defined as a set of expectations applied to all the members of one group, typically negative, and usually faulty as a result of bad experience. Blanket generalizations are usually over-generalized.

Members of a group aren't all the same. Even when most of them truthfully have the commonality of a certain negative trait, it is unfair to group the members of that group who are unlike the majority of the group simply because they belong in that group.

Quotation: "What's in a name? That by which we call a rose, by any other word would smell as sweet? (Act 2 Scene 2)

Virty [35]

Answer:

Juliet is not allowed to associate with Romeo because he is a Montague. If he had any other name it would be fine. She’s complaining that his name is meaningless. If the rose had any other name it would still be the same. So with Romeo; he would still be the same beautiful young man even if he had a different name. “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet” Juliet knows that the blood feud prevents her from loving a Montague. She ponders it. It’s only your name that’s the enemy. You are what you are, even though you may be a Montague. What’s ‘Montague’? It isn’t hand or foot or arm or face or any other part belonging to a man. Oh I wish you had a different name. What is so special about a name? A rose, even if it were called something else, would smell just as sweet. So Romeo would still have all the perfection that he has, even if he were not called Romeo. Romeo, take off your name and in exchange for that whole name, which is not really a part of what you are, you can have all of me.

in the poem "this morning (for the girls of eastern high school) The term "jungle girl" is best understood to refer to the girls

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The term "jungle girl" refers to the girl's personality as somebody who is active.

This term is a metaphor since it describes the African-American girl (Lucille Clifton) in the poem as a "jungle girl" although she is not from the jungle. This simply refers to her "active nature."

Explanation:

Lucille Clifton was an American poet who grew up in an African-American life. Most of her works, such as the poem "This morning," focuses on her life and family experience. The essence of the poem focuses on how Lucille finally found herself even in the midst of a different society. It also shows her appreciation for her own identity.

Discuss how Edwin Arlington Robinson’s use of language and imagery affects the meaning of “Aunt Imogen.”

Nataly_w [17]

Robert Stevick has said that "Robinson's poetry deserves the attention it does not contrive to attract" (Barnard, Centenary Essays, 66). To introduce Robinson's subtlety, read the poems out loud and more than once. Robinson once told a reader who confessed to being confused about his poetry that he should read the poems one word at a time. Robinson was very sensitive to the sound of words and complained of not liking his name because it sounded like a tin can being kicked down the stairs. He also said that poetry must be music. This musical quality is best perceived by reading his poetry aloud.
