Answer: Genre

Short story Setting and Context An unnamed Jewish village in rural Eastern Europe, likely Poland, set during the winter months and Point of View Third-person narrative

Tone and Mood From the beginning, the tone and mood are grim, as the family has no money for Hanukkah and therefore decided to sell their goat. The mood shifts and becomes dramatic and grave as the storm threatens Aaron and Zlateh. But as soon as Aaron discovers shelter in the haystack, a sense of hope imbues the story with a good-natured mood and a reflective, wise tone. Protagonist and Antagonist

Protagonists: Aaron and Zlateh. Antagonist: the blizzard. Major Conflict

The conflict exists in the struggle between Aaron and Zlateh against the fierce blizzard .Climax The story comes to a climax when the storm threatens Aaron and Zlateh, and they face the prospect of freezing to death. Just at that moment, they find a haystack for crucial shelter. Foreshadowing The coziness inside the haystack foreshadows the comfort of life back at home in the village, suggesting that Aaron and Zlateh will find their way home together in the end. Understatement N/A Allusion The Jewish holiday of Hanukkah is alluded to as the context for the story.Imagery Throughout the story, the natural world is described with vivid imagery. The narrator paints a picture of the dark and threatening storm, as well as the beauty and calm of the world after the storm. ParadoxThe very storm that threatens Aaron and Zlateh is also the impetus for Zlateh's salvation from the butcher. Parallelism The cozy atmosphere inside the haystack parallels the warmth of the family home back in the village.Metonymy and Synecdoche N/A Personification Several aspects of the natural world come to life through personification, especially the elements of the storm and the calm skies after the storm. For example, during the storm, the narrator describes the wind wailing "with one voice and then with many... [with] the sound of devilish laughter." Similarly, after the storm, the narrator notes how the "moon swam in the sky as in a sea.”Next Section Related Links Previous Section Yiddishism and Americanism in Isaac Bashevis Singer's Work Buy Study GuideCite this page Primis Player Placeholder GradeSaver will pay $15 for your literature essays GradeSaver will pay $25 for your college application essays GradeSaver will pay $50 for your graduate school essays – Law, Business, or Medical GradeSaver will pay $10 for your Community Note contributions GradeSaver will pay $500 for your Textbook Answer contributions STUDY GUIDE NAVIGATION About Zlateh the Goat.Zlateh the Goat Summary Character List Glossary Themes Quotes and Analysis Summary And Analysis Part I Part II

Strike441 [17]

In composition, unity is the quality of oneness in a paragraph or essay that results when all the words and sentences contribute to a single effect or main idea. Also called wholeness.

For the past two centuries, composition handbooks have insisted that unity is an essential characteristic of an effective text. Professor Andy Crockett points out that the "five-paragraph theme and current-traditional rhetoric's emphasis on method reflect further the expediency and utility of unity." However, Crockett also notes that "for rhetoricians, the achievement of unity has never been taken for granted" (Encyclopedia of Rhetoric and Composition, 1996).
