Can someone please help me find the meaning of this poem
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The title of the poem is short but suggestive. The word “power” is a reference to the will force of Marie Curie. It also suggests Curie's mental capacity to continue her research, denying her “radiation sickness”.

Explanation:

i  coudnt get you, do you mean the meaning of the title or the entire poem?

This is the analysis:

<em><u>In ‘Power’ by Adrienne Rich the first line may seem incoherent at first with respect to the other sections of the poem. But it is significant while taking the subject matter of the poem in totality. There is a reference to history and its importance in a person’s life. Rich says that we have a deep connection with our past. But true history remains hidden under the earthly layers of bias and orthodoxy of the society. The poetess refers to someone living there, in the real world of unheard history. She is none other than the famous scientist Marie Curie. It becomes in the third stanza of the poem.</u></em>

Which detail best shapes the central idea that the Japanese art of boat building is taught using unconventional learning methods
liq [111]

Answer:

Work is conducted in silence, questions are answered elliptically, if at all, and, by the end, the master will have withheld key pieces of knowledge that the apprentice is expected to acquire through guile or outright theft.

Explanation:

This sentence from the excerpt reveals the unusual manner in which traditional crafts are taught by Japanese boat builders. Teaching, which ordinarily should involve a dialogue between teachers and students is approached with silence. Questions are answered in a shady manner and this leaves the students with little or no knowledge at the end. This is different from what is obtainable in normal climes.

Why do you think Mrs. Schater kept screaming even though she was getting beaten for it?
nignag [31]

Answer:

Mrs. Schachter kept screaming "fire" even though she was getting beaten for it because she had foreseen what will happen to them, the Jews. She is like a warning for what will be the fate of the people and how most of them will end up.

Explanation:

The memoir <em>Night </em>by Elie Weisel tells the story of how the Jews were discriminated against and treated inhumanely by the German Nazis. The book became one of the most read and first-person accounts of the horrors of the Holocaust, one of the greatest genocide in world history.

Mrs. Schachter and the captured Jews were stuffed into the cattle cars and transported to other camps for their imprisonment. She was with her ten-year-old son. Along the way, she began screaming <em>"Fire! I see a fire! I see a fire! [. . . .] This terrible fire. Have mercy on me"</em>. This happened not just once or twice but more than thrice. She was badly beaten up for causing panic among them and was even gagged. But she kept on shouting about the fire.

Her 'vision' of the fire seems to be the<u> foreshadowing of the fate of the Jews</u>. Most of them will be put in the chamber and burned. She seems to foresee what will happen to them. And even though she was beaten up for shouting and claiming she saw a fire, she kept on repeating her claim to warn them of their fate, which, unfortunately wasn't understood by the people at that time.
