Walt Whitman's poem "O Captain! My Captain!" is an elegy.

Explanation:

"O Captain! My Captain!" is an elegy written by Walt Whitman in 1865, dedicated to Abraham Lincoln who died earlier the same year.

Elegies, sometimes referred to as mourning poems, are poems of serious reflections and often represent a lament for the dead. In his poem, Walt Whitman, who is considered one of the most influential poets in American literature and is called the father of free verse, mourns the death of Lincoln. He lived from 1819 to 1892, and the American Civil War (1861 - 1865) was the central event of his life. He was a Unionist and big supporter of Lincoln, so he saw the death of the President as a big tragedy and dedicated this poem to him.

Why is it ironic that the animals train for and unite in battle against the neighboring farmers? The farmers have food that the
Lisa [10]

I guess you're talking about Animal Farm. Well, the irony is that the animals came together and fought to overthrow the farmers who, they believed, were their greatest enemies, but in fact the greatest enemy of animals was "power." Once the farmers were defeated, the animals achieved their dreamed freedom, until "power" fell on the pigs, they began another kind of exploration and the animals lost their freedom again.  That is, as much as there is a fight against an enemy, another will arise, once he has power to concentrate in the hands of a single person, or a single group.

When I talk about this "power", I am referring to being able to be superior and oppressing others, because I think it is more certain, stronger, smarter, etc.

I hope it helps.

When doing a research on your a topic , when you find out you have too much information for the three page essay what do you do?
Nina [5.8K]

That's an enviable position to be in.

The best thing to do is limit your topic sentence so you can cut some of the material out of the essay.

I don't remember who said it, but there was a film director who commented once that the best film was on the floor. He meant that what he cut out of the film was better than what he released.

You could also hand in more than was asked for, but it had better have been good. In general teachers don't like that because it is not handled well. Sometimes too much material is not better than not enough.
