The ShireBilbo’s adventure in “The Hobbit” begins and ends in his hometown, the Shire. This area of Middle Earth conveys the comforts of home with its charming rustic architecture, pleasant climate, fertile land and friendly neighbors. While the pastoral land seems like a utopia for those who like the status quo, it’s also a symbol of an insulated and withdrawn life, according to the Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's "The Hobbit: An Educator's Guide." While Bilbo feels comfortable and secure with his life at Bag End in the Shire, he knows that there’s more to the world than his quiet existence.Valley of the ElvesRivendell within the Valley of the Elves is a sanctuary for Bilbo, Gandalf and the dwarves. Security contrasts with insecurity in the sheltered valley as the Misty Mountains, which the travelers must cross, overshadows the land. Rivendell becomes a symbol of wisdom, protection and security for the group because it’s the place that resupplies them and gives them essential information for the journey ahead, and because it's the origin of the enchanted objects and friends who rescue the travelers in times of need. With all the horrors that exist in Middle Earth, the tranquil, serene setting in Rivendell gives the travelers -- particularly Bilbo and Gandalf -- much-needed respite and restoration.Mirkwood ForestThe travelers in “The Hobbit” must cross Mirkwood’s enchanted forest to reach the Lonely Mountain. The strange enchantments, dark surroundings, tall trees, giant spiders and goblins provide a setting that creates a turning point for Bilbo and the dwarves, as they must choose to travel on a difficult road or a dark elf trail. It is in this forest that Bilbo learns how much courage he truly possesses, even after facing the goblins at the Moon Patch Clearing, as he must battle spiders to rescue his companions from the constricting webs and then the Elvenking. Bilbo emerges from Mirkwood a new person. The setting in Mirkwood humbles the dwarves, who discover their vulnerabilities and realize that they can and must have faith in the bravery and ingenuity of their small Hobbit comrade.The Lonely MountainTolkien writes that the cliffs on Lonely Mountain are tall and grim, and that danger lurks in every rock. In addition to being dangerous and scary, the mountain is a fortress that seems impossible to penetrate. The language used to describe the settings within the mountain creates a sense of fear, suspense and threat as, once again, the travelers find that they have to rely on Bilbo to retrieve the Arkenstone, a dwarf heirloom from Thorin’s dynasty. Just as Smaug the dragon greedily guards his treasure, Thorin and the other dwarves reveal how greedily they lust after it. The dark winding tunnels and the Battle of Five Armies make Lonely Mountain the complete opposite of the Shire, driving home to readers how much Bilbo has changed during his travels.Sponsored links

Atticus’ statement “ Jem’s definitions are very nearly accurate sometimes” (28) is meant to create what tone?
aksik [14]

Answer:

The statement on the part of Atticus that "Jem's definitions are very nearly accurate sometimes" is meant to set a playful tone because earlier Jem had said that entailment meant getting your tail stuck in a crack.  

Explanation:

The word entailment is significant in this part of the story because it means that Mr. Cunningham could not just sell his property to get cash and pay his debts. He might have a farm, but he does not have to right to sell it a large part of it and dispose of the money as he wishes.  Therefore Walter and his father are poor, and kind of "stuck in a crack" when it comes to affording to take a lunch to school like Miss Caroline expects.

What is the significance of alcohol in The Jungle's Packingtown? (Chapters 7, 14, 19)
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

From the earliest chapters, Sinclair describes men purposely seeking out or simply not being able to avoid alcohol. Certainly it is a cheap and easily accessible escape from the horrors of their lives. However, many men drink because bars are the only place in Packingtown to get warm, and men are only allowed to sit in the warm bars if they are drinking. These warm bars also provide food, but again, only to drinking customers. In addition to providing food and warmth, bars are relatively clean in comparison to the filthy, blood-soaked killing floors, which are the only other places men can eat their meals during the workday. Alcohol is yet another way for businesses to exploit the basic needs of hardworking men, perpetuating their struggles within the evil capitalist structure. Bars are businesses like any other, seeking to make as much money as possible. In order to do so, they must encourage men to drink, despite the fact that alcohol offers no nutritional value, is expensive, and weakens the body and mind, rendering exploited men like Jurgis less able to achieve their American Dream. Although Jurgis abstains at first, he begins drinking to ease his physical pain after his grueling work in the fertilizer plant. He also uses it to dampen his emotional pain. As soon as Ona dies, for example, he sets out to "get drunk." Through the working class's relationship with alcohol, Sinclair suggests that it is another form of exploitation (by tavern owners, who are in cahoots with the slaughterhouse and the police) and that in a more perfect society, men would not turn to it in the first place.
