I would say that the answer is B) that literature can express themes such as religion, justice and the passage of time. For example, Mark Twain wrote about the life of people along the Mississippi at a particular time and in a small way dealt with justice ie of the justice of the actions of his characters in their daily activities.

<span>B. Literature can express themes such as religion, justice, and the passage of time.</span>

<span>
In 19th century American literature, an example of a novel that expressed themes regarding its times and issues like religion and justice would be: <em>Uncle Tom's Cabin</em>, by Harriet Beecher Stowe, which spoke out against slavery. (This book was the second-best selling book of the century; only the Bible itself sold more copies.)  Another example of a 19th century American novel addressing issues of religion and justice would be <em>The Scarlet Letter </em>by Nathaniel Hawthorne, a work which explored themes of legalism in religion as well as questions concerning sin and guilt.</span>

In a well-worded essay, answer the following question: Does the current state of the Republican Party address the needs
Hitman42 [59]

Explanation:

Republican Party, byname Grand Old Party (GOP), in the United States, one of the two major political parties, the other being the Democratic Party. During the 19th century the Republican Party stood against the extension of slavery to the country’s new territories and, ultimately, for slavery’s complete abolition. During the 20th and 21st centuries the party came to be associated with laissez-faire capitalism, low taxes, and conservative social policies. The party acquired the acronym GOP, widely understood as “Grand Old Party,” in the 1870s. The party’s official logo, the elephant, is derived from a cartoon by Thomas Nast and also dates from the 1870s.The term Republican was adopted in 1792 by supporters of Thomas Jefferson, who favoured a decentralized government with limited powers. Although Jefferson’s political philosophy is consistent with the outlook of the modern Republican Party, his faction, which soon became known as the Democratic-Republican Party, ironically evolved by the 1830s into the Democratic Party, the modern Republican Party’s chief rival.

The Republican Party traces its roots to the 1850s, when antislavery leaders (including former members of the Democratic, Whig, and Free-Soil parties) joined forces to oppose the extension of slavery into the Kansas and Nebraska territories by the proposed Kansas-Nebraska Act. At meetings in Ripon, Wisconsin (May 1854), and Jackson, Michigan (July 1854), they recommended forming a new party, which was duly established at the political convention in Jackson.
