What is literature the legacy of?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:The Transcendental Movement dramatically shaped the direction of American literature, although perhaps not in the ways its adherents had imagined. Many writers were and still are inspired and taught by Emerson and Thoreau in particular, and struck out in new directions because of the literary and philosophical lessons they had learned. Walt Whitman was not the only writer to claim that he was "simmering, simmering, simmering" until reading Emerson brought him "to a boil." Emily Dickinson's poetic direction was quite different, but she too was a thoughtful reader of Emerson and Fuller. In his own way, even Frederick Douglass incorporated many lessons of transcendental thought from Emerson.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: Examples of health degrees of closeness between parents and their children are emotion and warmth while the unhealthy degress of closeness between parents and their children is the deprivation of necessary attention and support the children needs from their parents.

Explanation: The emotion and warmth reciprocated by the parents and the children always leads to healthy relation between them. they will always rely on their parents completely to show them the correct way. When the parent gives that ample time and support to their children that the children deserves, the child will then learn these qualities and will act in a similar way throughout adulthood.

If the children are deprived of the necessary attention and support that they need from their parents, the child then will be unable to give that to their future relationships, future children or family because they will not know how to do it the right way.
