Answer and Explanation:
1. The ending of "Young Goodman Brown" depicts the despair and melancholy that occurs when a Christian loses his faith and all his certainties are erased from his heart. Thus, he can no longer find peace in the society he sees as corrupted, in family members, in religion and in any other element around him.
2. When the author uses the expression "his dying hour was his gloom" he uses the melancholy, cynicism and extreme mistrust that Goodman presented before his death as a basis, which indicated to society that he was not one of the elected of God and died with that feeling of sadness that accompanied him to death and that he should not be part of an elected Christian.
3. The author's purpose was to show the ambiguity of Puritanism and Transcendentalism in New England, questioning the position of Puritans in situations where they are very controversial, situations that include sin, shame, judgment and murders.
4. In their stories Hawthorne shows how religions are created to bring us closer to God, but members of religions establish doctrines and dogmas that are controversial and put people's faith to the test, especially in relation to religion. In "Young Goodman Brown" he questions the sanctity of Puritan Christians amid the murders of people who were considered witches. This questioning is related to doubts about human goodness and salvation.
As Holden shares his experiences, it becomes evident that he is talking from a mental facility where he is being psychoanalyzed. He is mentally insane, or at least considered so. This can be seen by his frequent use of the word 'madman" <span>when he criticizes himself: "I was smoking like a madman"</span>
Answer:
"Birmingham Sunday" was written as a song and is in the form of a broadside ballad. The structure was formed in part to match the old Scottish folk song "I Once Loved a Lass." I think Fariña may have chosen to use an old melody because he wanted the message to be the main focus of the song. The familiarity of the melody meant that people may have been able to sing along, so all they needed to do was to learn the words. The song has a pattern, which is broken occasionally. The main pattern for syllables in a stanza is 11, 11, 11, and 10. However, Fariña occasionally breaks from this pattern, almost as if stressing particular messages. The first break is in line 7: "At an old Baptist church there was no need to run." This line is 12 syllables instead of the usual 11. The line is also heavy with irony, so it could be that Fariña wanted to emphasize its irony and foreshadow what will happen. The second break is in line 17: "And the number her killers had given was four," referring to Carol Robertson. It is possible that this line was given an extra syllable (12 instead of 11) to emphasize Carol, who was the last victim mentioned in the song. The syllable pattern does not break again until line 30: "And I can't do much more than to sing you a song." This could be to emphasize the helplessness that some felt as a result of the injustice. The song also utilized end rhyme. Using letters to represent end rhymes, most stanzas (except the first) looked like this: AAAB. It is interesting that the first stanza starts off not following this pattern. Instead, it follows a rhyme pattern of AABC. The "B" that seems out of place happens to be the powerful line, "On Birmingham Sunday the blood ran like wine." Perhaps Fariña wanted to keep this line, which utilizes figurative language to hint at the destruction, the topic of the song.
