Answer:

The poem White Man's Burden is written by Rudyard Kipling

Explanation:

Rudyard Kipling, a British poet, justifies the Euro-centric idea of racial supremacy and Imperialist ideology of civilizing the non white race in his peom in 1899. The moral obligation of colonizers or the white men is to take the burden of civilizing the barbaric and undeveloped world of the colonies known as "White Man's Burden". It is a mission that white man must embark upon that has received a lot of criticism for its racist approach.

Answer:Spiderman, The Matrix and The Lion King all follow Joseph Campbell's monomyth. Campbell wrote about the hero's journey in 1949, and people today still read and enjoy the hero’s journey. All hero’s journey stories have trials and adventure. The Book of three by Lloyd Alexander is a hero’s Journey.

          The ordinary world is really boring to the hero in a hero’s Journey. Taran lives in Caer Dallben in the land of Prydain. Taran is bored because he wants to go on an adventure but he is stuck in a farm making horse shoes for a horse they don't have. All hero’s journeys start in a boring world and the hero’s are eager for adventure. Later Taran faces trials.

                   Trails are the tests of strength and bravery towards a hero. Taran had a trial when he had to fight the horned king. It was really difficult at first but he succeeded and he had another trial when he was running from the cauldron-born he thought he was going to get caught but he didn’t because of his bravery. All heroes have hardships to overcome. Once the problem is solved , The hero returns to the ordinary world.

           

                 The last stage of the hero's Journey is the return. The hero goes back to the ordinary world but they have changed. The whole gang goes back to Caer Dallben, and the stage is set for the next story.

                     The Book of three is a hero's Journey by Lloyd alexander. Joseph Campbell’s monomyth is important because the monomyth isn’t just structure, it's also how we relate ourselves to the movie we're watching or the book we're reading. Taran started his trials and he fought the horned king bravely and he returned to Caer Dallben safe and sound without any injuries. The hero’s Journey is just like our real life we want to go places not be stuck at home in quarantine some of us been through alot like they lost someone in life or get there hearts broken those are your trials but you should never give up and always keep your head up and you would be successful .

In your opinion, did Whitman's use of free verse in "Song of Myself" help him to connect with his readers? Give reasons for your
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

yes I do believe that Whitman's use of free verse in "Song of Myself," helped him to better connect with his readers. Whitman's use of free verse enables him to talk to his readers in a new way that is not constricted by rhyme or meter parameters. Also, his use of language sounds more like spoken language and helps readers to not only understand what he is saying, but also to better connect with the complex and emotional themes that Whitman was discussing in "Song of Myself." More than one hundred fifty years later, the themes he uses in "Song of Myself," as well as his exciting use of language still speaks to a new audience in a new generation, which shows how well thought out and carefully pieced together his poetry was, and I believe that the use of free verse aided significantly in Whitman's ability to make the poem into exactly what he wanted it to be.
