My mothers pieced quilts what are the two images in the poem

English
1 answer:
Dmitrij [34]3 years ago
7 0

The poem is about the relationship of a nostalgic lyric self with his mother, who was a seamstress. A first image is found in the following fragment:

/ how the thread darted in and out

galloping along the frayed edges /

She exercises her trade with a thread that seems to gallop on the cloth.

Then, a very evocative image that describes his mother / you were the river current

carrying the roaring notes forming them into pictures of a little boy reclining

a swallow flying /.

In both cases, the visual aspect is used to improve the lyric quality

What was the significance of the presidential election 1876
Kisachek [45]
The presidential election of 1876 led to the end of Reconstruction. Samuel Tilden outpolled Rutherford Hayes to win the popular vote. Tilden had 184 electoral votes to Hayes' 165 and 20 votes were uncounted. These 20 electoral votes were in dispute: in Florida, Louisiana, and South Carolina. Each party reported its candidate had won the state, while in Oregon one elector was declared illegal and replaced. The 20 disputed electoral votes were eventually awarded to Hayes after a bitter legal and political battle. This gave Hayes the victory.

How does contextual information about the Klondike gold rush help readers understand Jack London’s story and his purpose in the
Alik [6]

Answer:

Jack London spent some time as a prospector in the Klondike. He was aware of how dangerous ignorance could be in such harsh conditions. “To Build a Fire” reflects London’s experience with many foolish prospectors who died from the cold and of malnutrition.

The contextual information suggests why the unnamed prospector in the story might have been overconfident: He was new to the area and might have been misled by popular and sensational accounts of the gold rush. These accounts depicted the prospectors as heroes discovering new frontiers and making their own fortunes. They did not describe the suffering of life in the Canadian wilderness.  

Contextual information also helps us understand the author’s purpose: to expose the truth about the dangerous conditions faced by prospectors during the Klondike gold rush. London informs his readers of what exactly prospecting involves and the importance of knowing the dangers of the environment and one’s own limits.
