Read "O Captain, My Captain!", by Walt Whitman
Considering the events occurring at the time this poem was written, how does the author use the captain, the ship, and the journey as symbols to develop the theme of the poem? Use specific evidence from the text to support your answer.
Answer:
The captain represents Abraham Lincoln as the leader of the Union, and the ship and its journey is a symbol of the grand and dangerous endeavor that was the Civil War. The Union had already won over the Confederates, which is depicted in the poem as follows: "the prize we sought is won." But the joy gets obscured by the death of the Captain, who "lies, Fallen cold and dead" on the deck of the ship.
Explanation:
Whitman wrote this poem after Abraham Lincoln was assassinated, which happened when the Civil War was coming to an end.
Answer:
His need to see the king so as to make whatever requests he has makes him decide to tell the king about his daughter's 'supposedly' ability to spin gold from straw.
Explanation:
In the fable of "Rumpelstiltskin" by the Brothers Grimm, the story revolves around a miller's daughter capable of spinning straw into gold. And through this story, the theme of being truthful and being responsible for one's own actions are brought into the fore.
In order to feel or be taken superior, or at least taken seriously, the miller decided to lie to the king by stating that his daughter could spin straw into gold. Greedy as the king was, the king immediately asked for the daughter to prove her father's claim, which resulted in the actual production of gold from straw.
So, the main reason or motivation for the miller to tell the king about his daughter's ability to spin gold from a straw seems to be that he wants to be taken highly or to appear superior.
