Why does Starbuck argue that it is madness for Ahab to be angry with Moby-D*ck for the loss of his leg?

English
1 answer:
Blizzard [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

because Moby-D*ck is a senseless creature that acts out of instinct

Explanation:

Starbuck was the Pequod's chief mate (the second in command), and he openly opposed Ahab's quest for revenge. He was more worried about returning home with his family than risking the ship and its crew due to a maniacal desire for revenge. He considered the white whale to be just a brute animal without intelligence.

Explain three ways walt Whitman reflects romantic thinking in his writing using quotations from the excerpt song of myself
eimsori [14]
  • "<em>The sniff of green leaves and dry leaves, and of the shore and dark-color’d sea-rocks, and of hay in the barn,/ The sound of the belch’d words of my voice loos’d to the eddies of the wind"</em>

In this quote, Whitman reflects Romantic thinking as he talks about the nature that surrounds him. Like most Romantic thinkers, Whitman finds a chance to reflect when surrounded by nature. Moreover, he finds a type of wisdom and inspiration in natural settings, and sees them as intrinsically connected to him.

  • <em>"You shall possess the good of the earth and sun, (there are millions of suns left,)/ You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books"</em>

In these lines, Whitman refers to the "good of the earth and sun," to "the eyes of the dead," and "the spectres in books." All of these statements refers to cultural and traditional sources of inspiration and knowledge. A common trait among the Romantics was an interest in rediscovering such sources of knowledge.

  • <em>"I celebrate myself, and sing myself,/ And what I assume you shall assume,/ For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you."</em>

A characteristic of Romantic literature is a focus on the author's inner world, inner feelings and personal experiences. In this poem, we see that Whitman mostly focuses on the feelings that exist within himself, and that make him reflect on his place in the world.

Why we shouldn’t increase minimum wages? Reflection
Vikki [24]

Small Business

Explanation:

There's a lot of debate on why we should and shouldn't raise the minimum wage. Off the top of my head, I would say the reason not to raise the minimum wage is that it could affect small business owners. Basically, smaller businesses will be forced to pay their employees more money. Obviously that will hurt the owner financially and could ultimately lead the business to bankruptcy.
