List five examples of Poe in your life

dangina [55]

If you've heard Blues Traveler's song "Run-Around" (released in 1994), you've heard Poe alive and well in modern pop music. The song begins with the line "Once upon a midnight, dearie,"- which is very similar to the first line of Poe's "The Raven:" "Once upon a midnight dreary . . ." The tune proceeds to describe the singer's longing for a woman who has left him, just as Poe pined for his lost Lenore.
*Heavy metal band Iron Maiden included the song "Murders in the Rue Morgue" — the title of one of Poe's best-known stories — on their 1981 album "Killers."
*Many television shows have borrowed plot lines or images from Poe, including the spooky 1960s soap opera "Dark Shadows," the comedy series "The Munsters," "Homicide," the 1990s police show set in Baltimore, and perhaps most famous of all, the animated hit "The Simpsons." During a second season Simpsons episode, James Earl Jones read part of "The Raven" while Homer as the narrator and Bart as the raven acted out the poem.
*In 1945, the Mystery Writers of America, Inc. established an award to recognize outstanding contributions to various categories of mystery, crime and suspense writing. These awards are known as The Edgar Allan Poe Awards. The statuette that winners receive is called an Edgar.
*National Football League 2000 Super Bowl champions are named the Baltimore Ravens, after Edgar Allan Poe's famous poem "The Raven." After all, the poem is about the torment and anguish of fierce longing, something Baltimore football fans know all too well.

Plz help 35 points! Quiz Write an essay comparing and contrasting the father from "The Bundle of Sticks," and Hofus from "Hofus

Alenkinab [10]

"The Bundle of Sticks," and "Hofus the Stonecutter" are two stories that show men who are dissatisfied with what is happening in their environment and decide to improve them.

The father in "The Bundle of Sticks," is totally dissatisfied with his kids fighting all the time. So he decides to show them why they should stick together and not fight anymore. This father doesn't want riches, or to change his life completely, he just wants peace to reign in his home and unity prevail among his children, because that will do them good.

In contrast, Hofus in "Hofus the Stonecutter" is so dissatisfied with his life that he wants to completely change who he is, which he does several times, but never gets satisfaction. Hofus always thinks that the life of another being is better than his, but after becoming several different beings he realizes that there is nothing better than being himself.

We can see that the main difference between these two men is how they brought about changes in their lives. The father in "The Bundle of Sticks," brought about a change in the world around him, but remained true to what he believes in, reaching satisfaction. Hofus in "Hofus the Stonecutter" was totally unfaithful to himself and although he had every wish fulfilled, he was unable to satisfy himself.

Read the passage from "The Goatherd and the Wild Goats."

OLga [1]

The correct answer would be the first option: Good leaders treat everyone the same.

This passage tells the story of goatherd that decided to treat better wild goats than his own, just to see if they would decide to stay with him. He had taken all of the goats inside a fold to spend the night and, after the snow, when he took them outside, the wild goats left and told him that they were leaving because he treated them better than the ones that had been with him for such a long time, and that proved he lacked character and wasn't trustworthy. "(...) it is plain also that if others came after us, you would in the same manner prefer them to ourselves", the wild goats said, explaining why they chose not to stay with the goatherd. The goatherd's attitudes weren't those of a good leader, who treats everyone the same way and therefore inspires trust. This is why "Good leaders should treat everyone the same" is the theme most exemplified in this passage.

The correct answer couldn't be the second one, "Kindness inspires others to be kind", because, although the goatherd could be considered kind when he decided to take the wild goats inside a shelter along with his own, the story shows his selfish reasons to do so. Thus, the story isn't about inspiring kindness, but about not trusting people who take action based on their own reasons and do not value those around them.

The correct option couldn't be the third one, "Strangers cannot always be trusted", because, although the goatherd was a stranger to the wild goats, the reason why he couldn't be trusted was his showing different treatment towards the goats, by treating better those he didn't know so well, and neglecting those who had been with him for a long time. So, that couldn't be the most exemplified theme in the passage.

The correct option couldn't be the fourth one, "Ingratitude leads to unhappiness", because the wild goats didn't show any signs of ingratitude towards the goatherd, nor became unhappy when they left him. Also, he wasn't necessarily ingrateful with his own goats, he just didn't treat them as well as they deserved. Therefore, this couldn't be the most exemplified theme in the passage.
