To what does she compare rituals?in the story rituals of metaphor

English
1 answer:
RoseWind [281]3 years ago
6 0
In an extended and well-developed metaphor, Blaeser compares the rituals to a loop. In the first paragraph, it is the loops of curly hair that can't ever be brushed and tamed. Any attempt at doing that will cause pain, and fingers can't go through them without getting stuck. She then proceeds to explain that "family, place, and community" are the loop of our identity. We can't get hold of it, we can't unravel it, but we will always be compelled to return to it. They constitute our private "rituals of memory". Those rituals are connected, repeated, and intertwined just like braids of curly hair. If we were to cut them, we would destroy our own identity.

Jack boasts that his tribe does whatever he wants. Why is this true? Why might the boys prefer Jack's leadership to Ralph's?
sukhopar [10]
Jack has a more appealing leadership because he campaigns that his tribe will have fun and hunt for pigs (which is appealing to the protein deprived children). Ralph and Piggy don't try to make the situation fun, they realise that they have things they need to do in order to survive and especially in order to be rescued. They build shelters, firewood, and take care of the little-uns. This is all very exhausting unappealing work for boys of their age who aren't all at the maturity Ralph, Piggy, Simon, and the twins seem to have. They would rather chant war calls and run around than to work and worry. (Haven't read this book in awhile but I hope this helps!)
