Answer:

there it is.

Explanation:

Death becomes life

Is it possible? Was Percy B Shelley depicting an act of resurrection in Ode to the West Wind?Not exactly , though the author was trying to imply that from the action of the cold west wind , spreading not only dead leaves but also seeds, spring will come and with it, the commencement of life.

The persona in this poem is a great admirer of the West Wind because it acts as an annihilator as well as a protector of living things.He praises the wind´s power coming in some  kind of chariot which ironically lets seeds low as in a graveyard.."Each like a corpse within its grave.." but with the purpose of putting them in the right place for their germinating and budding.He mentions the wind is a .."Destroyer and preserver..".

Additionaly ,this appreciation of the West Wind is perceived by the use of exalting expressions referring to its strong and .."uncontrollable" action.The West Wind has wings, speed and it is a deliverer .For the time being, Autumn , leaves are falling and the poet seems to recognize he is falling too as he is aging.He wishes he could be as "..fierce..tameless ..impetuous"... as the Wind.Nevertheless, he is a human being and will perish one day.

The veneration  of the West Wind is due to the fact that in every cycle of life the Wind will come and go and come again. What Shelley exhibits with his words in "Ode to the West Wind" is the glorification of something that will live for ever, that brings death in order to bring life, whereas he as a man will one day be gone for good.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

They deal with the snake conflict in a very calm and controlled manner.

Explanation:

"The dinner party" written by Mona Gardner is a short story about a dinner with men and women, where men claim that women do not have the same emotional control as men and that at the slightest sign of danger they start screaming. Although the women present disagree, the men continue to defend this argument. At this moment, the American sees that the hostess of the party, which is a woman, speaks very quietly and quietly to a boy. The woman says that there is a snake in the room. When the American sees the snake he is also calm, but he does an experiment to see if people really have the emotional control they claim they have. Upon revealing that there is a snake in the room, some people startle scream. At this point the American states that the first person to see the snake was the hostess and asks her how she perceived the animal's presence. The hostess says the snake was lying on her foot.

As we can see, the woman did not shout at the snake so close to her, which shows that she, like the American, dealt with the conflict very calmly.
