Answer:
I believe the theme of "Pastoral" is<u> </u><u>"adaptation." </u>
Explanation:
"Pastoral" is a poem written by <em>Jennifer Chang</em>, an American scholar and poet. The poem is part of her collection called<u> "The History of Anonymity."</u> It is a type of<em> lyrical poem</em> whereby the writer expresses her emotions through <u>nature</u>, such as<em> plants, fruits, grass, weeds, etc. </em>
The theme of Pastoral is<u> "adaptation."</u> It talks about <u><em>how nature adapts to what is happening in the surrounding environment.</em></u> For example, it mentioned <em>"Something in the field has mastered distance by living too close to fences."</em> This shows how such part of nature mastered its situation by living close to the fences.
The poem also shows how some cannot master such situation as it's mentioned in the end<em>, "Something in the field cannot." </em>This also shows "survival of the fittest." One example of this is<em> grass fighting with the weeds. </em>This happens when both fight for the nutrients in the soil. This is part of nature which they adapt to wherein only the strong one survives.
<u>Answer:</u>
In Frankenstein, the two ideas symbolized by Prometheus interact build on one other as R.W. believes firmly in his ability to achieve his goals, but he is challenged by the natural world he seeks to conquer.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Frankenstein is mostly addressed as the Modern Prometheus because he stole something from God which has not been intended to be recognised to humans, and with scientific method and advanced technology he redefined his concept. He like Prometheus and mankind were punished for their actions.
But the difference between the punishments were that Frankenstein was destined to alienation mentally, and the deities bound Prometheus. The difference highlights another point that in ancient times, the Gods controlled everything and were responsible for everything that happened.
But in modern terms, man is in control of his actions and its consequences. Furthermore, the light imagery used as metaphors for understanding such as the "thunder" that Frankenstein had seen in the oak tree account, which embodied motivation and devastation is why Frankenstein is called a Modern Prometheus.
I feel that C. is definitely one of the answers. D. might also be an answer.
Answer:
a. A theme map indicates the points in a story that support the theme; it traces the development of that theme.
Explanation:
A "theme map" allows a person to focus on the theme of the story. In order to do this,<u> it indicates the points that are essential in supporting the theme or main idea of the story. </u>The development of the theme is then traced in order for the reader <em>to have an easier time following the theme's timeline.</em> It allows a structured way to know more about the theme from a main idea going to the supporting details or topics.
So, this explains the answer.
