Answer:

When Huck plans to head west at the end of the novel in order to escape further “sivilizing,” he is trying to avoid more than regular baths and mandatory school attendance. Throughout the novel, Twain depicts the society that surrounds Huck as little more than a collection of degraded rules and precepts that defy logic. This faulty logic appears early in the novel, when the new judge in town allows Pap to keep custody of Huck. The judge privileges Pap’s “rights” to his son as his natural father over Huck’s welfare. At the same time, this decision comments on a system that puts a white man’s rights to his “property”—his slaves—over the welfare and freedom of a black man. In implicitly comparing the plight of slaves to the plight of Huck at the hands of Pap, Twain implies that it is impossible for a society that owns slaves to be just, no matter how “civilized” that society believes and proclaims itself to be. Again and again, Huck encounters individuals who seem good—Sally Phelps, for example—but who Twain takes care to show are prejudiced slave-owners. This shaky sense of justice that Huck repeatedly encounters lies at the heart of society’s problems: terrible acts go unpunished, yet frivolous crimes, such as drunkenly shouting insults, lead to executions. Sherburn’s speech to the mob that has come to lynch him accurately summarizes the view of society Twain gives in Huckleberry Finn: rather than maintain collective welfare, society instead is marked by cowardice, a lack of logic, and profound selfishness.

Hope it helps

How does the speaker’s repetition of the neighbor’s cherished belief about the importance of walls (lines 27 and 45) convey the
dolphi86 [110]

The way in which the speaker’s repetition of the neighbor’s cherished belief about the importance of walls conveys the poem’s criticism of an undesirable social pattern is that;

The speaker treats the neighbor’s words about fences as evidence of a worldview that is closed-minded in general.

This question is drawn from a poem titled "Mending Wall" written by Robert Forst in the 20th Century.

  • The major theme of the poem is the self imposed barriers that prevent human interaction. This was illustrated by the speaker's neighbor who kept on rebuilding a wall that was not required. This was because it didn't benefit anyone and as such the fence was harmful to their land.

  • While speaking about the neighbors cherished belief of fence walls in lines 27 and 45, the speaker treats the neighbor’s words about fences as an evidence of him having a worldview that is largely closed-minded.

How do the allusions or references made to Pallas (Athena) and Pluto(Hades) inform the character of the raven?
deff fn [24]

hey buddy here is your answer

please mark as brainliest!!

These allusions make the raven seem otherworldly and informs his symbolic nature as a possible messenger from the afterlife.

These allusions imply that the raven is far more powerful than it at first seems and it is there to cast judgement on the speaker.

These allusions contribute to the raven’s characterization as the speaker’s punishment, as classical gods were often seen as cruel and petty.

These allusions remind the reader that the speaker is mentally unbalanced and mistaking a raven for a god.
