Read the following passages from Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlett Letter. Though this work is set in a puritan society, it’s very much a Romantic-era work. In the following passages, you should see elements of both Romanticism and Gothicism. As you read the passages, annotate them for elements of both Romanticism and Gothicism.1. Which passage is more Romantic? What specific details lead you to this decision? (Cite them specifically and explain how they demonstrate romantic ideas.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Passage 1 is the most romantic.

2. The passage shows details such as: the influence of nature in history, being a living part of the narrative and escapism.

Explanation:

Passage 1 can be considered a more romantic passage from the Gothic and this is noticeable right at the beginning of the paragraph, where it shows that the lonely child escaped his sadness and problems when he went to the forest. This is a feature called "escapism" that is very common in romantic literature. This characteristic refers to the distraction from reality and pleasant daydreams that the character has.

In addition, the passage shows nature as something alive, in addition to being a statistical setting. In this passage, nature has a great influence, in addition to the text showing that it is a palpable organism capable of establishing great deeds and capable of interacting with the character. This is also a striking feature of romanticism.

Keeping my mind on my writing is not easy when I stay at my grandmother's ocean-side cottage. Just about the time that I am going along pretty well, I glance out the window and see two huge bald eagles swooping and tumbling in a spectacular aerial display. Naturally, I have to leave my desk and rush to the doorway to watch the performance as long as it lasts. Then, as if a conspiracy were trying to keep me from working, two otters poke their shiny heads out of the water and hang there motionless. They watch to see what I am doing. As soon as I return to my desk, seagulls wheel into my window view and screech as they search for scraps of food. Within minutes, this confusion of sounds stirs my aging St. Bernard out of a deep sleep, and he hauls his massive, lumbering body over to be petted. Mickey, my cat, can't stand to see any partiality, so he is soon pacing back and forth across my ankles. As I wiggle my bare toes to tease Mickey, I realize that my legs have become stiff. I remember that I have not had my daily ride. So, I slip on my sandals, step out the door, spring onto my bike, and pedal off down the beach. Meanwhile, the composition in my typewriter sits and grows colder.

In complete sentences, name four details that develop the topic sentence.

Answers

Four details that develop the topic sentence are 1. The two eagles flying outside made the narrator leave the desk 2. The seagulls in the window looking for food distract the narrator 3. The St. Bernard dog approaching to be petted interrupts the narrator 4. The stiffness in the legs of the narrator makes the narrator go for a ride.

Explanation:

In a paragraph, the topic sentence summarizes the general idea or point of the paragraph. In this paragraph, the topic sentence is expressed by "Keeping my mind on my writing is not easy when I stay at my grandmother's ocean-side cottage". Besides this, topic sentence are supported and explained through supporting details, which includes reasons, examples, evidence, etc.

In this context, supporting details include all reasons or situation that stops the narrator from focusing on writing. This means the supporting details include 1. the eagles flying outside as this causes the narrator "to leave my desk and rush to the doorway"; 2. the seagulls in the window because this causes a "confusion of sounds" that distracts the narrator; 3. the dog looking for attention in the narrator because this also, disrupts the process of writing, and 4. the stiffness in the legs of the narrator because this makes the narrator "spring onto my bike, and pedal off down the beach".

HELP i need to turn this in today--- In at least 100 words, choose a character from Oedipus the King and explain his or her motivation.

Answers

Answer:

                                                    ANTIGONE

Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus who is as stubborn and decisive as her father. She in fact planned to defy Creon's directives and bury Polynices. The similarity with her father seemingly ended there as unlike her father she has the remarkable ability to recall events that happened in the past. Oedipus forgot all the good things the priest Tiresias did for him and went ahead to defy him, he also seemingly forgot about his encounter with Laius at the three-way crossroads. Antigone, on the other hand, recalls the things her father's actions have cost her family and the grief he has brought to them thus far.

Because Antigone is aware of the fate that her family is destined to, she is fearless about what Creon would do to her, even until the point of death because she feels she has nothing to lose. She appears to be in love with her brother Polynices (now dead) which seems to further the plot about the family being an incestuous one.

Antigone shows her great need for connection to her family throughout the book as she defies Creon to bury Polynices which could have cost her her life.

George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion" is a play that revolves around the life of a little girl named Eliza Doolittle who was 'hired' by a professor to teach her about life and make her into a duchess. The play deals with the themes of social class, education, and manners, etc among others.

This 'little' experiment that Professor Henry Higgins and Colonel Pickering was to take the flower-girl Eliza and make her into a duchess, thus, promising to make her a lady. Act V is when Eliza had run away from the duo and was brought back to decide who "owns" her. Higgins asks her to return to him, which prompts Eliza to question why she should come back for. Higgins replied, "for the fun of it".

According to our textbook, the _____________________ is a reoccurring theme or motif found throughout the book of Ecclesiastes.

Answers

Answer:

Remembering God, life under the sun, sovereignty of God, wisdom and enjoyment of life.

Explanation:

The Book of Ecclesiastes is the 21st book in the Old Testament of the Holy Book. It contains 12 chapters, all of which have the recurring themes of life's meaninglessness and the sovereignty of God.

From the very first chapter of the book, the author, King Solomon delves into how meaningless human life is without God. He stresses the life of man under the sun, where all things seem meaningless unless living with God. He also focuses on the need to remember God and his great nature, his ever providing nature. He states in Chapter 2: 24-25, "A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?" In chapter 6:2, he says "God gives some people wealth, possessions and honor, so that they lack nothing their hearts desire, but God does not grant them the ability to enjoy them, and strangers enjoy them instead. This is meaningless, a grievous evil". And in chapter 8:17, he states "I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun".

What is the proposer’s (we will use the word "proposer" to identify the individual making the claims) attitude toward the beggars he describes in the opening paragraphs?

Answers

This question refers to the text A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift.

In this essay, Swift proposes a solution to deal with the problem of poverty in Ireland. He suggest selling Irish children to wealthy Englishmen in order for them to be eaten. This is an example of satire, and Swift did not expect the proposal to be taken seriously.

In this text, the "proposer" takes a particular attitude towards the beggars. However, this attitude is not easy to explain. On the one hand, the proposer complains about the beggars being lazy and opportunist. He suggests that people who struggle economically should take responsibility for their own situation. On the other hand, this attitude is also intended to show how complex poverty can be, and how absurd a simplistic explanation of the problem sounds to people who are struggling with this situation.

Rewrite the sentences, using verbal phrases in place of the italicized words.
I know that I can do better. This knowledge will help me persist.​

Answers

Answer:

Knowing that I can do better will help me persist.

Explanation:

Verbals are described as the derivative of a verb that functions as a noun or modifier in the sentence. It primarily includes participles(verbals that function as adjectives in the sentence), gerunds(verbals which function as nouns in the sentence), and infinitives(the verbals functioning as adverbs, nouns, or adjectives with 'to'). Thus, verbal phrases are described as the phrases that consist of a verbal plus any modifier or objects.

The given sentences can be rewritten using the verbal phrase('knowing that')  as it consists of a verbal 'knowing' plus modifier 'that'. Here, 'knowing that' is the participle phrase and it is functioning as an adjective in the sentence. Thus, this verbal phrase helps in connecting the two ideas together in a coherent manner.

Answers

Answer:

if each is a different equation then in the first one we will multiply 7 by x and 7 by 4 which is equal to 7x + 28

and the second will be x -6 since there isn't anything before it and then it will be x-6 +32 [x - 3x - 15] here it was -15 because 3 is negative and negative multiplies by positive is negative then the is x -6 + 32x - 96x - 480 then we organize them x+32x -96x -6 -480

. = -63x + 486

here it was positive 486 cause negative plus negative is positive

Explanation:

the equation will be

equation 1. 7(x+4)

7x + 28

equation 2. (x - 6) 32[x - 3(x + 5)].

x-6 + 32(x - 3x + 15)

x - 6 + 32x - 96x - 480

x + 32x - 96x -6 - 480

-63x + 486

Which of the following sentences is written in active voice? A. I went to the mall. B. The computer was fixed by my friend. C. The suitcase was found. D. The trash was taken out yesterday.

Answers

Answer:

A. I went to the mall.

Explanation:

The difference between active voice and passive voice is that in active voice the subject acts while in passive voice the subject receives the action.

Active voice: "Johnny ate an apple."

Passive voice: "The apple was eaten by Johnny."

To look for the sentence written in active voice, look for the one with the subject acting.

In A, the main subject is I. The narrator went to the mall.

The sentence that is written in the active voice is ' I went to the mall'.

Option A is correct.

What is passive voice?

The passive voice is the opposing type of active voice in which the subject of the sentence receives the action. It starts with the object of the sentence.

Active voice is one of the most commonly used grammatical device. It is represented from the action performed by the subject of the sentence, that is, an individual or a thing.

The analysis of the provided sentences is as follows:

The first sentence representing the active voice as the subject, that is, inferred from letter 'I' which performs the past action of going to mall.The second sentence representing the passive voice as the task of fixation of computer is received to the subject ,that is, 'my' through his/her friend.The third sentence representing the passive voice as the suitcase is received to the implied subject.The fourth sentence representing the passive voice as the task of taking out of trash received to the subject.

Therefore, the sentence mentioned in option A is correct.
