Read The Lessons of Salem, by Laura Shapiro
What ironic situation does Shapiro describe in paragraph 3?
Answer: The irony of having those who “confessed” to witchcraft spared and those who defended their innocence being killed.
Explanation:
The Puritan witch hunts of 1692 would get confessions by torturing the suspects to justify the hunt itself, and those who would refuse to confess would end up being hung to death. The irony lies in the fact that none of the suspects had anything to do with witchcraft, and the proceedings of the trials were especially prejudicial to those who were honest.
I just finished reading Alice and that looks good wouldn't change a thing :)
Walt Whitman's work is continuation of and a departure from the work of transcendentalist authors of USA.
Explanation:
Walt Whitman is the most well known and most widely read poet from the USA and has been an influential figure for the development of the modern poetry.
He very much developed his poetry style and subject matter from the work of transcendental authors before him which includes Emerson, Hawthorne and Longfellow, who had a peculiar way of life and wrote a form of poetry.
The poetry that Whitman wrote continued the tradition of hermit meditations of the poet but were markedly different in their use of free verse and more free diction as well as heavy symbolism.
Answer:
Aside from Simone, Ma Tante as well as the other elderly people in the doctor's office and elderly people in general are treated unfairly in the story.
Explanation:
Debbie Rigaud's short story "Voilà!" revolves primarily around Simone and her great-aunt's relationship. But the story also delves into the issue of how the elderly are treated differently by the younger generations as well as how poorer people are treated. The author wants to portray that discrimination and bring it to the attention of the readers.
In the story, the great aunt <em>"Ma Tante"</em> is unfairly treated, as are the other elderly people in the run-down <em>"ghetto doctor's office"</em>. Another elderly that's treated unfairly is<em> "Mr. Charles Pemberton"</em> who Waverly insists on taking him on a wheelchair even though he can walk properly.
Aside from the elderly, the protagonist of the story Simone Thibodeaux also feels embarrassed for her background, for being different from her classmates. She admits<em> "My embarrassment at being seen in the ghetto doctor’s office outweighs my guilt."</em> Moreover, she is a Haitian, thereby resulting in different treatment from others, including the twin-nurse sisters and Waverly, who also made the suggestion that Simone helps the <em>"CARE-A-VAN"</em> volunteers by translating for them.
