If we look at Billy Collin's "Man Listening to Disc", we can see that the lines 'The music is loud yet so confidential

I cannot help feeling even more

like the center of the universe', we can clearly see that he uses the music to isolate himself from others. He tries to use the loud melody in order not to hear any other sounds.

Zarrin [17]

Hi there! Here are some definitions that I think make sense;

1. Alienation = Blocking out anything that is different.

2. Contend = To fight against something.

3. Conviction = Finding out the truth about somthing that was bad.

4. Designate = To set aside a special place for something.

5. Implement = To put something in a place that wasn’t there before.

6. Innovative = The ability to make the most out of your surroundings.

7. Spontaneously = Something unexpected.

I’m not exactly sure about number 3, but I think it‘s somthing like that... Have a good day/night!

An important aspect of a theme is that it is "universal" which means it can be applied beyond the story itself. Compare and cont
Alenkasestr [34]

The story “Mercury and the Workmen,” a famous Greek fable, deals with the topic of honesty. In the story, the honest man is rewarded, and the dishonest one punished, highlighting the importance of honesty and the benefits it can bring. This theme is universal, as honesty is appreciated everywhere in the world. This moral therefore is relevant for a wide range of stories and situations beyond the Greek story itself.

Another famous story that gives a lesson on the importance of honesty is “The Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant. There are several similarities between both stories. In both cases, dishonesty is punished, and the dishonest characters end up worse than they would have been if they had not attempted to tell a lie. However, they are different in that in the Greek story, it is Mercury who punishes the liar, while in the French story the consequences are brought about by fate. Also, the motivation to lie in the first story is greed, while in the second one it is a desire for recognition and status. Both stories are good examples of this universal theme.
