How do the developments in European agriculture reflect the importance of new technology?
Grace [21]

The new European agriculture is much more than producing a productThe new technologies allow each land to be cultivated according to its fertilizer, water and phytosanitary needs according to the orography, the type of soil and using agronomically sustainable techniques.

The seeders and tractors now have GPS technology that helps them move with precision on the ground. The self-guidance system provides numerous advantages such as saving inputs. They reduce the number of overlapping areas in the various passes between 8 and 12%, with the consequent saving of diesel. Other improvements are that you can work at any time of the day or night (more efficiency in the treatment with insecticides), or in adverse weather conditions such as fog, dust, etc., work at higher speed, accuracy and safety, which reduces the marathon days during the sowing periods.

The Masque Of The Red Death,
liq [111]
Edgar Allan Poe was a famous American short story writer and poet who is notable for his contributions to the American Romantic movement. Although he is perhaps best known for his poem, 'The Raven,' Edgar Allan Poe wrote many poems and short stories before his untimely death in 1849 at the age of 40. Poe published 'The Masque of the Red Death' in 1942, and like much of Poe's work, it is considered an exemplar of the Gothic fiction genre.

The plot of 'The Masque of the Red Death' is actually quite simple. The Red Death is a fictional plague sweeping through the land. Prince Prospero, the main character in the short story, is hiding from the plague in an abbey, along with a bunch of other nobles. Despite the plague being quite horrific and consisting of symptoms like sweating blood and dying within 30 minutes, the nobles think they are safe in the abbey. In fact, they are so relaxed about their situation that Prospero hosts a big masquerade ball.

The only downside of the abbey, which is quite luxurious, is the decor. There are seven rooms which are color-coded and arranged east to west. The last of these rooms is a creepy room that is decorated in black and scarlet. This room contains a huge clock that scares the guests whenever it chimes on the hour.

The clock does not disrupt the masquerade for long, however. People keep partying until it strikes midnight. Then, a mysterious figure shows up, which is disturbing because the doors to the abbey are welded shut to keep all the plague-infested people out. The figure is dressed in a bloody robe, and the figure's mask is designed to look like someone who has died from the Red Death.

Prospero chases the figure through the abbey until he corners the figure in the creepy room, which is the room farthest to the west. When the stranger looks at Prospero, Prospero drops dead. The other noblemen corner the stranger and unmask him. Once he is unmasked, they realize that he does not possess a body. Everyone in the abbey catches the Red Death and dies.

Symbols and Motifs
Let's take a look at some of the symbols and motifs of 'The Masque of the Red Death.' First, let's discuss the seven rooms.

Arranged in a row from east to west, the seven color-coded rooms in the abbey are considered symbolic of the progression of life. The stages they represent are birth (blue), youth (purple), adolescence (green), adulthood (orange), old age (white), imminent death (violet), and death itself (black/scarlet).

The seventh room, which represents death, is the room into which Prospero chases the stranger. It is also the room that everyone at the party avoids until the very end of the story. Once Prospero and the other nobles cross into the room, they all contract the Red Death and immediately die.

Now, let's talk about the clock.

Have you ever heard the phrase 'Time is running out'? Well, if the black room represents death, and there is a huge black clock in the room that marks each and every passing hour so loudly that all of the guests at the party take note of it, it seems fairly obvious that the clock is a symbolism of the fleetingness of life and the inevitability of death. You can hide in an abbey to escape a plague, but you can't hide from death itself, since even if you manage to avoid the plague, you will still die of old age eventually.

Finally, let's discuss the color red.

The color red features heavily in 'The Masque of the Red Death.' While sometimes red can symbolize passion or life-sustaining blood, red is exclusively associated with death in this story. The fictional plague is named the Red Death because it makes people bleed out of the pores on their face
