What does burr learn during the room where it happens

English
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Aaron Burr and Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton discuss the legacy of the deceased General Mercer, pondering what their own legacies will be, and Hamilton's attempt to gain approval from Congress for his proposed financial system. Their discussion is interrupted as Hamilton is ushered to a secret dinner table meeting, at which he, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison agree upon an unprecedented political compromise. The capital city of their new nation will be situated on the Potomac River, politically and geographically placing it in the South, Jefferson and Madison's home region; in exchange for the Democratic-Republican Party's support of Hamilton's financial plan. Burr ponders Jefferson's reports on the meeting, and enviously comments on how the American people, and more specifically himself, had no agency in this decision. He decides to rectify this by running for political office in an effort to be in the metaphorical "room where it happens"—i.e., to be a party to important decisions.

Claire Lampen of Yahoo News explained "History has drawn much of its information on the compromise from Thomas Jefferson's account of the evening, according to PBS; neither Miranda nor anyone else can be entirely certain what happened behind those closed doors".[4] This grants Miranda artistic liberty and freedom in retelling the story of the compromise.

What is an effect of Chaucer’s decision to use a pilgrimage as the central premise for The Canterbury Tales?
777dan777 [17]

Solution: The pilgrimage is a religious expedition. It has the following effects:

1. It sets the metaphor of a journey both physical and literary. A journey is generally a symbol of human curiosity and growth.  

2. A pilgrimage is not only for penance and grace but also a time when people abandon work and take a vacation. therefore it sets a 'carnivalesque'  setting. Celebrations are often used in literature for subversion of established social order.

3. A pilgrimage is taken by almost all types of people; therefore it provides apt setting where characters representing different social, political, cultural and economic backgrounds can come together. This way he could reveal more about the society he is criticizing.

This list is not exhaustive, more can be added to it.
