The correct answer is It expresses a hopelessness about life.

Gertrude Stein, who invented this term, used it to name a group of artists who were in France in the final years of the First World War, using the country as a refuge for their creative manifestations, philosophical discussions and literary creations. The Lost Generation became popular in a Hemingway novel called The Sun Also Rises and in his memoir, A Moveable Feast.

Although formed by several artists, the group was best known for the literary works that it produced in the period. On the list of famous authors of the Lost Generation are T. S. Eliot, John Dos Passos, Waldo Peirce, Sherwood Anderson, Ezra Pound, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway. In addition to them, another personality mentioned as part of this generation is James Joyce, who has his novel Ulysses as one of the most important at this time. Within this generation, there is a lot of influence of jazz on literary compositions, as this musical style was emerging in the United States and influencing other countries.

The Spread Of Chinese Civilization To Japan
Author: Stearns, Peter N.
Date: 2000

The Spread Of Chinese Civilization To Japan

Although its full impact on global history has not been felt until the
last century or so, the transmission of key elements in Chinese culture to the
offshore islands that came to make up Japan clearly provides one of the most
important examples of the spread of civilization from a central core area to
neighboring or overseas peoples. In the 1st centuries A.D., the peoples of
Japan imported a wide range of ideas, techniques of production, institutional
models, and material objects from the Chinese mainland. After adapting these
imports to make them compatible with the quite sophisticated culture they had
previously developed, the Japanese used what they had borrowed from China to
build a civilization of their own. New patterns of rice growing and handicraft

The man who wrote the Kansas-Nebraska Act was Stephen Douglas. What was his purpose in authoring such a law?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:  Senator Stephen Douglas proposed the bill that became the Kansas-Nebraska Act as a way of getting southern support for Nebraska  statehood.  Douglas was seeking to bring Nebraska into the Union in order to bring those lands under government authority and lay the groundwork for building a Midwestern route of transcontinental railroad that would run to Chicago and benefit his state (Illinois).  The compromise to gain support from the South was to create two states, Nebraska and Kansas, and allow voters in those areas to choose whether they'd be slave or free. The thought was that Kansas might end up as a slave state and Nebraska as a free state, thus maintaining the balance between free and slave states.

Further detail:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act was enacted by Congress in 1854. It granted popular sovereignty to the people in the Kansas and Nebraska territories, letting them decide whether they'd allow slavery.  In essence, this made the Kansas-Nebraska act a repeal of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had said there would be no slavery north of latitude 36°30´ except for Missouri.

After the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into Kansas to try to sway the outcome of the issue, and violence between the two sides occurred.  The term "bleeding Kansas" was used because of the bloodshed.  Kansas and Nebraska ended up as free states, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act had allowed the possibility that slavery could become slave states.
