Describe the structure of the poem, and explain

English
1 answer:
siniylev [52]2 years ago
3 0

According to a different source, this question refers to the poem "Burning a Book" by William Stafford.

In this poem, the author employs a free verse structure in the poem. This means that the author does not follow a strict rhyming pattern. The main theme of the poem is that ignorance and lack of new ideas are great threats to society. He claims that this is even worse than burning a book:<em> "More disturbing than book ashes are whole libraries that no one got around to writing." </em>Therefore, the author encourages innovation, ingenuity and creativity. This is emphasized by the free verse that the author employs.

Assoli18 [71]

The correct relative pronoun to complete this sentence.

Alchemists​,​ _____ wanted to transform base metals into​ gold, were also among the first people to conduct laboratory​ experiments is option D. WHO

It is a non-defining realtive clause. Non-defining realtive clauses add extra information to a sentence by defining the noun. That can be used as a replacement of which or who in defining relative clauses.  But it is not correct to use THAT to replace shich /who in non defining realtive caluses
