What does "And Yet the Books" have to do with Nazis

History
1 answer:
Vika [28.1K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

And yet the books will be there on the shelves, separate beings,

That appeared once, still wet

As shining chestnuts under a tree in autumn,

And, touched, coddled, began to live

In spite of fires on the horizon, castles blown up,

Tribes on the march, planets in motion.

“We are, ” they said, even as their pages

Were being torn out, or a buzzing flame

Licked away their letters. So much more durable

Than we are, whose frail warmth

Cools down with memory, disperses, perishes.

I imagine the earth when I am no more:

Nothing happens, no loss, it’s still a strange pageant,

Women’s dresses, dewy lilacs, a song in the valley.

Yet the books will be there on the shelves, well born,

Derived from people, but also from radiance, heights.

Czeslaw Milosz

What would James Madison say about allowing a person elected to the house of representatives to srve at the same toime on the su
daser333 [38]

Answer:

He would not be happy due to the fact that he wanted all the 3 powers to be separated from one other. His reason for being unhappy will be because he felt the separation of the powers couldn't be possible with the system in the question stated where there is 1 representative for 2 powers.

Explanation:

He would not be happy due to the fact that he wanted all the 3 powers to be separated from one other. His reason for being unhappy will be because he felt the separation of the powers couldn't be possible with the system in the question stated where there is 1 representative for 2 powers.

The major reasoning behind his thinking is that if one person were allowed to serve in both house of reps and Supreme court, they would likely influence the others in both branches to take side with them which could lead to forming a strong force with two of the branches, which will in turn lead to a great threat to the system.
