"For whom the bell tolls" is a line from a poem by John Donne (pronounced like "Dunn") written in the early 1600s. Hemingway used a line from the poem as the title of a novel he wrote in the 20th century.

The poem goes like this (the copyright is in the public domain):

<span>No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.</span>

How did germany gain so much power in world war II

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Propaganda

Explanation:

Hitler used flashy signs and brilliant parades to show what it would be like to be a nazi. This allowed him to become leader of Germany. He then recruited a massive army of nazi soldiers. They were taught to think like hitler (in the sense of racism and world domination) and act upon these desires. This was mainly done theeough Hitler Youth because the younger minds were easier to manipulate. Hitler would also used flouride (which drops IQ for a time when taken in a larger dose than is in toothpaste) to lower soldiers IQ so they would blindly follow him and do everything he said.

Metaphor is one of the many figures of speech in which it uses implied comparison between two or more things that are not related but with specific similarities. Here are examples:

The rejection I received is another door for a great opportunity ahead.
She is the glasses of his eye frame.
<span>She has bouncy balls of emotions just by seeing him.</span>

How do other countries view South Africa now, compared with how they viewed it in the past?

zaharov [31]

This is a complicated matter. The answer depends upon the particular country and, moreover, who is making the assessment. In some nations, the general thought is that South Africa serves as the model of a nation that overcame - rather quickly - its racist and fascist leadership. Other nations - especially those in Western Europe - feel that South Africa, as a nation, still has plenty of strides to make toward racial equality and, moreover, making reparations for past injustices.
