Answer: How is the uncertainty of the title “Recessional” appropriate to the mood of the poem by Rudyard Kipling?

  • The poem is both a history and a prayer.

Explanation:

It is extremely unlikely that Kipling subscribed to any form of orthodox religious belief. Yet at the same time he understood and valued the role of sacred stories and writings in organization the inner life of the people among whom they were shared.

A majority of Kipling’s English-speaking readers would have been brought up on the Authorized <u>Version of the Bible</u>. As a poet, he drew on its language and on its stories in order to reach a deeper level of response in his readers, one associated with the intensity of early experience.

By the time that “Recessional “ was put to stand at the end of The Five Nations it had acquired a fresh historical resonance, for it had been sung by 10,000 British troops outside the Volksraad or Parliament in Pretoria when the town fell to General Roberts.

Kipling chose to position “Recessional” as the very last poem of The Five Nations, following the suite of poems, entitled the ‘Service Songs’. These told of the way combatants had been changed by what they experienced during the Anglo-Boer War. In sealing that account with “Recessional”, he again modified the way that poem would be read, underlining its call for reflection and responsibility.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The first part from Anne diary speaks about Anne life before she went flee away from the Nazis. In the text it mentions Otto telling Anne that,"Nor do we want to fall into their clutches ourselves. So well leave of our own accord and not wait to be hauled away." Based on this quote Anne Frank and Otto are terrified of the treatment that they will get from the Nazis and they do not want to be bombed. Anne and her family prefer to make preparations to go into hiding. . The next part of the writing describes Anne Frank and her family life after staying hidden for serval months away from the Nazis. Anne speaks about experienceing loneliness and isolation about the way the world was. Anne writes in an passionate tone. Her style of writing provides the reader to form a connection with her because she writes down all of her feelings and emotions on paper. The structure of the text tells me how both of the experience she had made her feel. The way she structure the text helps readers gain more insight of the monstrosities that took place back then.

Foreshadowing in romeo and juliet act 2 scene 2
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

In Act II, scene two, Shakespeare plants a hint at what is next for Romeo and Juliet. "I have night's cloak to hide me from their sight," Romeo says in scene two, "and, but thou love me, let them find me here." My life were better ended by their hate than death prorogued wanting of  thy love." When Romeo says this, He is telling Juliet that it is far more important to him, to be with her tonight and die, then to live yearning for her. This is an example of foreshadowing because he is saying that it is worth dying than not having Juliet by his side. The example of foreshadowing that Shakespeare plants in Act II, give the audience a little insight into what's going to happen in the future of the story. Foreshadowing also creates suspense in the story causing viewers to be more atten

Describe thr characteristics of angela vicario in the Chronicle of a death foretold!
mezya [45]
Angela Vicario is in many ways the main character of the story. She is the most quoted character in the novel, and has the strongest narrative voice. In addition, she is center of the mystery that the narrator is trying to unravel, since she is the only one who knows whether or not Santiago was truly the one who took her virginity, and she remains enigmatic at the end of the story because she never reveals whether or not he was guilty.

Angela Vicario is a distant cousin of the narrator. As a young girl, she was the most beautiful of her four sisters. However, the narrator says she had a "helpless air and a poverty of spirit that augured an uncertain future for her." She used to sit in the window of her house, making cloth flowers, and the narrator thought she looked more and more destitute every year. He says that her "penury of spirit had been aggravated by the years," so much so that when people discovered that Bayardo San Roman wanted to marry her, they thought it was an outsider's plan.
