7 0

Answer:

It shows that no one was free from witchcraft and that the authorities were willing to execute anyone to maintain their supremacy and need for control.

Explanation:

Giles Corey was a very influential farmer in Salem, in addition to being an admirable respected man and a high-ranking member of the Puritan church, but since he was accused of witchcraft, all his influence was not able to save him from torture and execution by stoning. This was done because the Salem authorities wanted to show that no one was free from the supremacy and control that they had in the city, showing that any citizen was passive to face the terrible yoke established by them.

What is the setting in the raven? please provide textual evidence.
Step2247 [10]

The setting in this poem includes both time and place. The author first gives us a sense of both mood and time with the first line:

"Once upon a midnight dreary,"

We as readers are then told that the author/narrator is in his study, as evidence is given of the books, the bust of Pallas, and the other ecoutrements that lend themselves to studious labors. We are certain that this is, at the very least, a room, as Poe refers to his "chamber door" multiple times throughout the poem. In closing, we can conclude that this poem is set in the 1800s, on a dark and stormy night, in the author's place of academic study and leisure.
