Which statement best describes how the structure of these excerpts helps to develop the themes? The refrains of "An Irish Airman

Foresees His Own Death" stress that life and death are balanced, while the parallel structure of "Do not go gentle into that good night" stresses that men of all ages should fight against their oncoming demise. The repetitions and refrains in both excerpts develop the theme that death cannot be avoided, no matter how hard one struggles against it. Both the parallel structure in the excerpt of "An Irish Airman Foresees His Own Death" and the repetition in the excerpt from "Do not go gentle into that good night" emphasize the inevitability of death. The parallelism in "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death" emphasizes the idea that the speaker identifies himself as an Irishman, while the refrains in "Do not go gentle into that good night" emphasize the speaker’s vehement opposition to death.

In my opinion, the correct answer is D: <span>Both the parallel structure in the excerpt of "An Irish Airman Foresees His Own Death" and the repetition in the excerpt from "Do not go gentle into that good night" emphasize the inevitability of death.

The main point of both poems is that death is inevitable. However, in Yates' poem, the airman willingly faces death, because of an inner impulse that he finds hard to describe. In this excerpt, he tells us that he is more or less indifferent toward those who are below, on Earth. He is interested in death itself, as a dark phenomenon that haunts him. On the other hand, in Thomas' poem, the inevitability of death is human tragic destiny. We should cling to life as best we can precisely because death is inevitable. These two poems have the same topic, but opposite directions of thought: Yates' speaker goes to meet death, embracing it, whereas Thomas' speaker encourages his dying father to try and postpone death, if possible.</span>

The inciting incident is an episode, plot point or event that hooks the reader into the story. This particular moment is when an event thrusts the protagonist into the main action of the story.

Inciting Incident: The character reacts to something that has happened, and it starts a chain reaction of events. Rising Action: The story builds. There is often a complication, which means the problem the character tried to solve gets more complex.

How did industrilization affect gender roles
Whitepunk [10]
In general, the coming of the Industrial Revolution led to a situation in which women became more subjugated to men and were allowed to have less contact with the public sphere. The idea about gender roles that arose from the Industrial Revolution is sometimes called the idea of “separate spheres.”

Before the Industrial Revolution, most work occurred at home and everyone in the family worked together as a unit. There was very little distinction, if any, between work and home or between economic activity and non-economic activity. For this reason, women were seen as part of the economic unit and had a role that was not too dissimilar to that played by men.

As the Industrial Revolution progressed, this changed. Work came to be something that was performed away from home. The ideal was that women would not work outside the home. They would stay home and perform work that was not paid. This meant that there came to be the sense that women belonged at home and outside the economic sphere while men belonged outside the home in the economic world.

I can't find a good definition of either of these anywhere. What's tragedy of fate and tragedy of character?
KIM [24]

Tragedy is a specific form of literature made popular by the Greeks. Fate and character can contribute to the fall of the tragic hero, though some tragedies emphasis one more than the other. Tragedy includes a tragic hero who suffers a downfall because of a character flaw or moral failing. Romeo and Juliet is a good example of tragedy of fate. Romeo and Juliet are meant to be together, but their families keep them apart. The death of the young lovers is the tragic result of this human pettiness. Macbeth is an example of tragedy of character. Macbeth becomes blinded by his ambitious, committing an evil act, leading him to his own eventual downfall. The story includes an element of the hero trying to work against fate.
