English

I looked this question up. It is about the poem "Nikki-Rosa" by Nikki Giovanni.

Answer:

<u>The speaker assumes white biographers would misunderstand her childhood and focus on problems such as the lack of a toilet or her father's alcoholism. They would not write about her and her family's happiness.</u>

Explanation:

Nikki Giovanni (born 1943) is an American poet and activist. In "Nikki-Rosa" she says she wishes no white biographer will ever have a reason to talk about her. According to Giovanni, white biographers focus on problems when they write about black people. They do not understand "Black happiness". They are unable to leave stereotypes behind and realize that, even amidst poverty and fights, there is love, comfort, and intimacy. Giovanni had a beautiful childhood, and she does not want it to be misconstrued as being any more difficult than what it actually was.

Why does Edwards claim that nonbelievers are akin to spiders in "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God"?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

II. Spiders are powerless should a rock fall on them.

Edwards uses this comparison of non-believers to a spider to show that should God decide to send someone to hell, he or she does not have the power to stop it. Even if the non-believer felt assured and arrogant about it, he would still not have the ability to keep himself out of Hell. Option I is incorrect because Puritans, like Edwards, did not believe that any of God's creations were a mistake. Option III is also incorrect because the purpose is not to show the expendable nature of the spider, but rather the almighty power of God.

The oxymoron creates a contradictory mood, emphasizing the confused nature of love.

In the text presented above, the oxymoron is seen in the lines "the sweetest honey / Is loathsome in his own deliciousness". With this sentence, the author creates a contradictory mood, but presents a characteristic love as something confused, but pleasurable.
