Could someone help write a theme statement for "Lamb of the Slaughter" around the motif of manipulation?

English
1 answer:
solong [7]3 years ago
7 0

‘‘Lamb to the Slaughter’’ tells of at least one betrayal: Patrick Maloney’s unexplained decision to leave his pregnant wife. This violation of the marriage-vow is obviously not the only betrayal in the story, however. Mary’s killing of her husband is perhaps the ultimate betrayal. Her elaborately planned alibi and convincing lies to the detectives also constitute betrayal.

Put this in your own words.

A common misconception is that the muscular system only moves bones. Why is this statement incorrect? Explain the idea correctly
Mashutka [201]

Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately, but I will try to help you in the best possible way.

1. The mistake of this statement is to use the term "muscular system" and not "locomotor system." This is because the locomotor system is formed by the muscular system and the skeletal system, but people believe that this system is only related to the bones, completely ignoring the function of the muscles. Thus, the correct phrase would be: A common misconception is that the locomotor system moves only the bones.

2. Many people have this misconception because they do not really know the name of the systems, and do not know that the systems can form pairs and groups, which are named differently.

Write a literary essay about an intercalary chapter of The Grapes of Wrath. Your essay should
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The structure of the novel “The Grapes of Wrath ” is unusual.

Explanation:

The structure of “The Grapes of Wrath ” by “John Steinbeck” is quite unconventional. There are narrative chapters in which the narrator is omnipresent and sees everything and is aware about all the thoughts and actions of all the characters. But, in the intercalary chapters, there is a pause in the main narrative and the narrator changes. The views on this break is mixed, some feel that it is frustrating, and the two distinct sections of the novel are not properly related, others say that this has been thoughtfully by John Steinbeck.

The characters in the novel face a lot of conflicts because they are forced to travel away from their homes to California. They migrate as farmers ion hope of achieving success during The Great Depression.

The intercalary chapters in the novel are also called the 'inner chapters', which do not directly affect John but indirectly convey the inputs on the struggles of the characters. The main reason of the intercalary chapters is to give an idea about how the world (social and economic system of the world) was during that time to the readers. Many literary techniques are applied in the “intercalary chapters”. Most common is dramatization. Use of monologues and dialogues show the historical reasons behind the events that are occurring in the story. For example, how farmers were forced so sell their lands and how drought forced the farmers to migrate to a new place. The language used in the novel, specially in the structures of King James Bible reflect about the moral beauty of the novel. These lines give the novel a spiritual touch as well.
