Explanation:
Japan did sign the Geneva Convention but, like the USSR, failed to ratify it, so was not bound by the laws. However, in 1942 Japan made a promise to abide by its terms and indicated it would observe the Hague Convention of 1907.
While the extent of the atrocities committed are still a matter for intense debate, there is little doubt the Japanese grossly violated the Geneva Conventions during the Second World War. The very same year they had agreed to stick to the rules, Japanese forces savagely brutalised thousands of American and Philippine POWs on the infamous Bataan Death March, killing more than 5,000 men through starvation, beatings and execution.
Inconceivably to many, such cruelty is explained by the Japanese military’s firm belief that surrender was the ultimate shame and dishonour; for them, POWs did not deserve humane treatment. Following the horrendous civilian slaughter witnessed in the Second World War, a revised Geneva Convention was drawn up in 1949 to address the treatment of non-combatants.
It also included the prohibition of scientific experiments on POWs in response to the torture exacted on prisoners by German and Japanese doctors. Japan wasn’t among the original signatories in 1949, but it became the 24th state to ratify the Geneva Conventions on 21 April 1953.
Answer: An unnamed narrator approaches the house of Usher on a “dull, dark, and soundless day.” This house—the estate of his boyhood friend, Roderick Usher—is gloomy and mysterious. The narrator observes that the house seems to have absorbed an evil and diseased atmosphere from the decaying trees and murky ponds around it. He notes that although the house is decaying in places—individual stones are disintegrating, for example—the structure itself is fairly solid. There is only a small crack from the roof to the ground in the front of the building. He has come to the house because his friend Roderick sent him a letter earnestly requesting his company. Roderick wrote that he was feeling physically and emotionally ill, so the narrator is rushing to his assistance. The narrator mentions that the Usher family, though an ancient clan, has never flourished. Only one member of the Usher family has survived from generation to generation, thereby forming a direct line of descent without any outside branches. The Usher family has become so identified with its estate that the peasantry confuses the inhabitants with their home.
