How does Langton Hughes treat racism in America In his poetry?

English

morpeh [17]3 years ago
8 0
Hughes, whose writing career spanned more than half a century, was diverse in his themes, which included connectedness, transitoriness, racism, integration, poverty, myth, history, and universal freedom. Particularly unique to his work was his integration of his writing with blues and jazz. He wrote operettas, and many of his poems were set to music.The voice in the poem is that of the black mothers through the ages. In the opening line, the narrator addresses her children. In the narrative that follows, “the Negro mother” depicts the capture and hardship of black slaves and speaks of the will to endure that kept them going. The voice of the Negro mother urges the children to transform the future so that they may live in dignity and freedom from white oppression. The poem, often referred to as a heritage poem, is highly lyrical, employing both a regular rhyme scheme (couplets) and meter. It was Hughes’s intention, he said, that the poems be pleasant to recite and easy to remember. “The Negro Mother” and the success of the volume show how keenly in tune Hughes was with his audience. I hope that my help still will be needed. If not, you may also check the writing service I trust. Prime Writings is the one I use and I know for sure you can get the help there as well.

What can you infer about macbeths mental state from his reaction to his wife's death
rjkz [21]
When Lady Macbeth dies, he feels nothing, he is emotionless. That might tell us that she has turned him into a ruthless killer, who will stop at nothing to get what he wants, and what he wants is the kingdom. He is very calm, as if he doesn't care at all that his wife died - she has turned him into a mad monster. He has lost all ability to feel, at least until he finishes what he has started.
