What are tenants rights concerning termites in ga?

The state
of Georgia does provide a set of rights and responsibilities for both landlords and tenants.
Landlords are responsible for providing a safe and habitable dwelling, maintaining the dwelling,
choosing tenants and obtaining rent from tenants.

Part of providing a safe
and habitable dwelling is keeping the building free of termites. Termites may destroy a building
and thus prevent the tenant from having a safe and/or habitable environment. If a landlord is
going to spray for termites, the landlord must notify the tenant in advance. A landlord cannot
simply enter the premises without appropriate notice. Notification is also necessary as the
chlordane used for termite control may cause health issues.

In 1984, what does the Chestnut Tree symbolize? Why did Orwell choose that specific tree as a name for the cafe?

The chestnut
tree is often understood as a symbol of justice and honesty. We also hear the phrase "an
old chestnut" to describe a story that has been repeated many times.

More specifically,connects The Chestnut Tree cafe to a songhears twice on the
telescreen during the course of the novel:

Under the
spreading chestnut tree/I sold you and you sold me/There lie they and here lie we/Under the
spreading chestnut tree.

Winston hears it the first time
when he happens into The Chestnut Tree cafe before his arrest, when:

He [Syme] said things that would have been better unsaid, he had
read too many books, he frequented the Chestnut Tree Cafe, haunt of painters and musicians.
There was no law, not even an unwritten law, against frequenting the Chestnut Tree Cafe, yet the
place was somehow ill-omened.

Winston hears the song
again when The Chestnut Tree has become his home away from home after his arrest and release
from prison, but this time only the first two lines: "under the spreading chestnut tree/I
sold you and you sold me." These lyrics bring tears to his eyes.

Clearly, the song and the cafe represent Winston's betrayal ofand hers of him, and
through it, everything they loved: "I sold you and you sold me."

Further, Orwell uses the line "They lie there and here we lie" toon the
meaning of lie: in the song, it means lying down, but in the world of Oceania it means telling
lies. 

If Orwell is thinking of "old chestnut" as a story repeated
many times, then we have to believe that what Julia and Winston have undergone is an old story:
they are not the first nor the last to be broken by the regime. The name also evokes the
"old England" Winston longs for, but ironically the cafe represents the new world of
the regime.

My sense of the novel is that Orwell was specifically referring
to the song in naming the cafe, and not looking to the deeper symbolism of the tree as
representing truth and justice, but certainly that deeper symbolism lurks ironically in the
background, for in Oceania, the chestnut tree, once the symbol of truth and justice, is twisted
into the symbol of lies and injustice. 

 

What argument does the author of The Scarlet Letter make in the book?

We can find many such
ideas in the book's final chapter. The narrator says, for example,

Be true! Be true! Be true! Show freely to the world, if not your worst, yet some trait
whereby the worst may be inferred!

It is important, as we
see in the story, to be honest about one's true nature; otherwise, if one is not, it can slowly
erode one's life and seem to eat them up from the inside out.is not honest about his own sins
and true nature, and the guilt tears him apart for seven years before he finally dies,
tragically, upon the scaffold.also hides his nature from the world, and he grows more and more
corrupt throughout the novel as a result of his hatred of Dimmesdale. Hawthorne seems to suggest
that everyone benefits when everyone is honest about their own sinful natures; if people believe
that everyone around them is sinless, then they will be afraid to admit their own sins, and this
will negatively impact their lives....

Compare Eveline to the girl in the Beatles' song "She's Leaving Home."

interesting assignment!

A comparison between the girl in the song anddepends
on how you interpret the lyric "She's leaving home after living alone/ For so many

How does Raphael's School of Athens reflect Renaissance art and philosophy?

Raphael's great masterpiece "The School of Athens" is a reflection of
Renaissance ideas in that it gives pride of place to pagan scholars. Traditionally, Western art
was based on exclusively Christian themes and iconography. But after the discovery of ancient
learning that heralded the dawn of the Renaissance, artists began to utilize pagan themes in
their works, such as figures and scenes from classical mythology. (Botticelli's "Birth of
Venus" would be an obvious example).

In "The School of Athens"
Raphael presents us with a scene dominated by the great pagan philosophers of old, most notably
the central figures of Plato and Aristotle. That Raphael was able to portray such figures was a
sign of how the Church had managed to draw upon certain elements of pagan learningmost notably
the works of the Neoplatonists and the newly-discovered writings of Aristotlein making Christian
teachings philosophically respectable.

In earlier times, such a work of art
as "The School of Athens"...

Write a short and comprehensive summary of Austen's Emma.

To
get a short and comprehensive summary of is a bit of a trick, especially
if all characters are of importance. Peripheral characters will of necessity be omitted, yet you
can fill them in in your own summary, which this summary will only be a guiding reference
for.

Almost twenty-one years old, Emma loses her friend and governess, Miss
Taylor, when she marries and becomes Mrs. Weston. Emma, having "rather too much her own
way" and thinking a "little too well of herself," finds a replacement for Miss
Taylor's lost companionship in the newly befriended Harriet Smith whom Emma decides to groom for
a higher social class. Though Harriet is romantically attached to farmer Robert Martin, Emma
decides she should instead be attached to the vicar Mr. Elton. Mr Knightley, Emma's neighbor,
friend and the patriarchal overseer of Highbury as owner of Donwell Abbey (and benefactor and
friend of Robert Martin) warns Emma that she is inappropriately relating to Harriet while
ignoring other relationships that are worthy of her notice.

Just as Mr.
Knightley predicted, Emma's efforts with Harriet backfire when Mr. Elton, who has long been in
love with Emma--humoring Harriet only to please Emma--proposes to Emma in her carriage on their
way homeward through the snow after a party at the Weston's home. Emma rejects him. Emma is
shocked.

"You have made yourself too clear. Mr.
Elton, my astonishment is much beyond any thing I can express."

Elton is outraged. Harriet is heartbroken. Elton goes off to Bath
and later brings back to Highbury a bride. While Harriet is beginning her protracted period of
weeping, Jane Fairfax and Frank Churchill (Mr Weston's natural son raised by the deceased wife
and mother's family) both make their appearance in Highbury. Even though Jane receives a
mysteriously delivered pianoforte while Frank is inexplicably in London, no one has reason to
connect the two.

The entrance of Mrs. Elton and her bustling friendship with
Jane leads to a strawberry party, an outing to Box Hill and a ball, which all result in the
revelation of secrets between Jane and Frank, Harriet and Mr. Knightley, and Frank and Emma,
while Mr. Knightley has secret plans for farmer Martin. At the strawberry party, Mrs. Elton
pressures Jane to accept a governess position (putting Jane in a compromising position) and Jane
and Frank quarrel. The quarrel is slyly continued at the Box Hill outing while Emma thinks Frank
is showing a romantic interest in her. Emma insults Miss Bates thus earning a scolding from Mr.
Knightley, who shows his manliness by dancing with Harriet at the ball after she is scorned by
Elton.

The story soon after resolves with the truth about Frank and Jane's
secret engagement coming to light following Mrs. Churchill's death. Emma realizes Mr. Knightley
was again correct in warning her that Frank was insincere in his attentions. Mr. Knightley
facilitates the engagement of Harriet to Robert Martin, and Emma realizes she loves Mr.
Knightley and that he mustn't marry anyone but her, which is convenient because he knows he
mustn't marry anyone but Emma.

In "1984", how does Winston react to the note from Julia before he reads it?

His initial
reaction is distrust. It seems odd to him that a woman such as her would even know or care he
existed. Therefore, he had to wonder what was her motive? Was someone out to get him? Did
someone set it up so they would meet? This book shows paranoia to the extreme though this
paranoia is justified. When he finally does decide to read it, he has to read it in private and
dispose of the letter. This further demonstrates his fear.

What is the meaning of the title of "Lamb to the Slaughter"?

From the Holy
Bible, Isaiah 53:7 says 

All of us like sheep have gone
astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the LORD has caused the  href="https://biblehub.com/isaiah/53-7.htm">iniquity of us all To fall on
Him. He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He did not open His mouth; Like a lamb that is
led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, So He did not open His
mouth. 

The lamb represents any living being that is
innocently being led to a bad situation; one which could even end his or her life. 

In 's short story "," theis a woman whose life gravitates around her husband,
a policeman. She admires him, pampers him, is a good housewife and, to top it all, she is
heavily pregnant with their first child. 

The description of this woman
suggests that she is vulnerable and innocent. She is dependent on her man. She does not work,
for all we know, and her existence is based on the wants and needs of her husband. Still, one
night after work, he tells her that he is leaving her, making her an innocent person entering a
bad situation.

This piece of news is the trigger that leads Mary, the
protagonist, to suddenly lose her mind. Without planning or scheming, she simply goes to the
kitchen to cook her husband a leg of lamb. She takes it from the freezer and, almost
automatically, she turns around and pounds her husband's head with it, killing him instantly.
Was it blinding rage? We will never know. However, we do now this: this pregnant woman, whose
life depended on the man she just killed, will face prison and perhaps even the death penalty if
she is proven guilty. Then, she would be the lamb going to the slaughter. 

As
such, Mary has to protect herself and conceal the weapon that killed Patrick. How does she do
it? By feeding it to the policemen who come to the scene. She cooks the leg of lamb, feeds it to
them, makes her weapon disappear. and, like the story shows, 

...in the other room, Mary Maloney began to giggle. 

We can argue that there are two innocent people who go "to the slaughter."
The first is Patrick, Mary's husband. He is a mean man for leaving his pregnant wife, but he has
no idea that the outcome of this decision will be his death. The second person is Mary. If she
had been accused of her husband's death, she would have had to give birth in prison, give up her
child, and possibly face death. Theof the title is that the murder weapon is a leg of lamb,
which the policemen investigating the scene end up eating. 

What can the reader infer about Montresor's social position in "The Cask of Amontillado," and what evidence does the text provide that Montresor is an...

Outwardly, it would appear that Montresor is a wealthy man who occupies an elite social
status. He lives in a palazzo, he has servants, and his extensive catacombs suggest that he
comes from a large, revered family.

However, there is evidence to suggest
that Montresor has recently fallen on hard times and does not occupy the same social status as
Fortunato. When Montresor informs Fortunato that he has purchased a pipe of Amontillado, he
says, "I was fearful of losing a bargain." A pipe is a large container of wine, and
Montresor more than likely planned on selling the wine in smaller quantities to make a profit.
If Montresor were as wealthy as many suggest, the Amontillado's price would not be a
concern.

Another piece of evidence to suggest that Montresor is experiencing
financial struggles concerns the behavior of his servants. As soon as he informs them that he
will not be home, they disobey his orders and leave the estate. Their actions suggest that
Montresor may not be paying them...

What are quotes that show racism from Mrs. Dubose?

Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose is an ancient and
malignant woman who lives near the Finches. She is introduced as generally disagreeable, rather
than specifically racist:

Mrs. Dubose lived two doors up
the street from us; neighborhood opinion was unanimous that Mrs. Dubose was the meanest old
woman who ever lived.

However, Mrs. Dubose's racism
quickly becomes clear and explicit. Her most virulent expressions of prejudice relate to 's
defense of Tom Robinson. She says toand ,

Not only a Finch
waiting on tables [the fate she has predicted for Scout] but one in the courthouse lawing for
n----rs!

When she sees that this has angered Jem (who is
frequently infuriated by her ill-natured remarks), she adds,

Your fathers no better than the n----rs and trash he works for!

When Jem is forced to visit Mrs. Dubose in the afternoons,
following his destruction of her camellia bushes,writes,

Mrs. Dubose would hound Jem for a while on her favorite subjects, her camellias and our
fathers n----r-loving propensities; she would grow increasingly silent, then go away from
us.

This shows that Mrs. Dubose's hatred of black people
and her anger with Atticus for defending Tom Robinson (which she regards as a betrayal of race
and class for a member of the Finch family) are obsessive concerns, to which she returns over
and over again in her increasing sickness.

Is the play about the end of game or about a game of ending? Endgame

The term,
taken of course from chess, refers to how we, as human beings, can use our free will (if it is
not an illusion) to go out of this bodily existence, to cease to exist.  Just as in chess, or
any action requiring decisions, we are called upon to choose a strategy, for example,
aggressive resistance, or gradual attrition, or graceful moves to avoid the final...

What causes Grendel to attack the mead-hall Herot in Beowulf?

The most obvious motive for Grendel's attack
is envy and a sense of exclusion. He hears the laughter in the mead-hall, hates the Danes and
their merry-making from which he is excluded, and resolves to kill them. Even slaughtering
thirty does not satisfy him and he returns night after night to drown his misery in blood. Since
he is always an outcast, however, the misery remainsno matter how many he kills.

I think, however, that this question and my answer above (as well as any other answers
which invoke psychology and personality) would be equally incomprehensible to the poet or poets
who composed . For them and their audience, Grendel behaves monstrously
because he is a monster: motiveless as a howling gale or a storm at sea. Grendel exists purely
as an evil thing for the hero Beowulf to overcome. He attacks the mead-hall because the story
demands that he should do so.

In Death of a Salesman, what action takes place on the apron of the stage?

's authororiginally
wanted to entitle his landmark American  The Inside of His Head to reflect
the time shifting from present to past of the , Willy Loman. In his original conception, Miller
envisioned "an enormous face the height of the proscenium arch that would appear and open
up, and we would see the inside of a man's head"; the action of the play, therefore, would
take place exteriorly and interiorly.  Circumstances intervened and Miller
changed both the title and the staging of the play. Despite this change, however, the play still
contains two types of time and action: real and remembered. This time shifting is the locus for
Willy's tragic downfall. And it is still reflected in the staging of the play. Miller uses both
the Shakespearean stage and the modern proscenium to symbolize the time shifting
in Death of Salesman. Events in the present take place on the domestic set
framed by the proscenium, but remembered events take place on the apron and the forestage. It
can be said, therefore, that Miller not only reconfigured the idea of tragedy, he also
reconfigured stage time, allowing it to symbolize the interior and exterior realities of the
principal character.

During a solar eclipse,the moon(of mass 7.36x10^22kg), Earth(of mass 5.98x10^24kg), and Sun(of mass 1.99x10^24) lie on the same line, with the moon...

The force
exerted by the moon on the Earth is

2.98 x 10^31 joules.

The gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the Sun is

3.58 x
10^23 joules

These figures are derived by using the following equation for
gravitational force:

Fg = (Gm1m2)/r^2

where G is the
universal gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, and r is the distance
that separates their centers.

I should note that I am not using the number
you provided for the mass of the Sun because you seem to have mistakenly stated the wrong power
for it.  It is raised to the 30th power, not to the 24th.  My calculation is based on that
number and I provide a link below to a page showing that as the correct mass of the
Sun.

How do I determine if this equation is a linear function or a nonlinear function?

A linear
equation has the following form: 

y = mx +
b 

where 

m is the slope
b is the
y-intercept. 

You can also perform a vertical line test. If the line touches
your graphed function in more than one spot, it is not a function. 

How does the lack of individuality or privacy impact the Oceanic society as a whole? I need three reasons as to how the surveillance of big brother...

The most
elemental answer is that the lack of privacy emboldens and empowers Big Brother.  In determining
that the public realm is the only realm and that individuals cannot have any semblance of
privacy, Big Brother's power is unquestionable.  There are no checks or limitations to it.  I
think that this is part of the formula that allows Big Brother to present itself as such a
dominant force.  There is no distinction between public and private, as it is all public. 
Oceanic society is geared towards one end, the subservience to Big Brother.  The elimination of
the private realm is something that makes this a distinct and real possibility.  For example,
the lack of private thoughts removes one element of individual resistance to Big Brother.  The
removal of any notion of relationship, sexual or emotional, between people further the withering
of any resistance or any type of social solidarity that could trade off with Big Brother's
absolutism.  The control of private thoughts, making them public in the process, helps to ensure
that there can not be any sort of activism against the Party.  In this light, society is geared
towards one end, which is the worship and absolute submission to Big
Brother.

How does postcolonial criticism uses poststructural theories to understand a text?

One
significant way in which postcolonialism uses poststructuralism in understanding texts is within
the issue of race and racial identity.  For the postcolonialist, the concept of "race"
is beyond binary opposition.  It goes beyond "white" and "other." 
Poststructuralism is concerned with the exploration of narrative beyond established contours, to
explore the root of identity that might lie past the artificially constructed realms of
"cultural majority" and...

How is Atticus Finch portrayed as being a mockingbird in Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird?

The
first time a mockingbird is mentioned is in Chapter Ten, whenspeaks toandabout their new rifles.
Jem relates the following:

"I'd rather you shot at
tin cans in the back yard, but I know you'll go after birds. Shoot all the bluejays you want, if
you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird."

That
was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie
about it.

"Your father's right," she said. "Mockingbirds don't
do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't eat up people's gardens, don't nest in
corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to
kill a mockingbird."

In this context the symboloc
meaning is obvious. Mockingbirds bring us pleasure by singing beautifully. They copy the sounds
other birds make to add to our pleasure. The birds are deemed harmless and innocent and only
wish to bring us joy. In this sense, then, the meaning aptly describes

What Is Nick's Attitude Toward Gatsby

At the
beginning of the chapter,expresses his concern and care for .
He noticed that the parties had ended and those who visited, stayed briefly in his driveway and
left. He then went over to enquire:

"Wondering if he
were sick I went over to find out."

Later in the
day, whenquestions Jay about his being at Oxford, Nick expresses his
admiration for the manner in which he manages Tom's cynical inquisition. Nick
mentions that the verbal altercation renewed his faith in Gatsby.
He trusted that Gatsby could manage whatever negative idea Tom wished to create of
him.

"I wanted to get up and slap him on the back. I
had one of those renewals of complete faith in him that Id experienced before."

Nick further expresses admiration for Jay's initial
calm demeanour during his verbal altercation with Tom. Tom obviously loses
control, whilst Jay remains polite and is "content". Even when Tom hurls accusations
of criminal activity at Jay, he remains calm.

Nick later
expresses pity for Jay when he sees how he reacts to  telling him
that she "loved him too" and further that, "you want too much!" Jay is
clearly hurt and confused. Even so, he remains calm.

Tom's relentless pursuit
does affect Jay eventually and Nick notices that he looked:

'as if he had killed a man.'

Nick's
thoughts make it clear that he feels sorry for Jay when he attempts
to explain all Tom's accusations to Daisy, denying everything. Nick states that:

"But with every word she was drawing further and further into
herself, so he gave that up, and only the dead dream fought on as the afternoon
slipped away, trying to touch what was no longer tangible, struggling unhappily,
undespairingly, toward that lost voice across the room."

At the end of the chapter, after the accident which killed Myrtle,
Nick finds Jay outside the Buchanan home, "just standing there". Nick finds this
despicable. When jay tells him that they had parked his car in his garage and that nobody had
seen them, Nick's thinking is:

"I
disliked him so much by this time that I didnt find it necessary to
tell him he was wrong."

He is, at this
point disgusted by Gatsby and what he had done. Nick however,
remains loyal to his friend, going so far as to establish what Tom
and Daisy were up to and reporting back to Jay. He recommends that Jay leave and go to bed, but
he insists on staying. Nick then leaves.  

What does Nick learn about Jordan after he's spent some time with her?

In
chapter three,describes the first time he attended one of 's magnificent parties and mentions
that he began seeingregularly around town. Nick mentions that he enjoyed being around Jordan
because she was an attractive girl, who was recognized for her accomplishments on the golf
course. Nick goes on to say that he did not fall in love with Jordan but developed a sort of
"tender curiosity" for her. There was something about her personality that he could
not quite figure out until one day he witnessed Jordan tell an overt lie.

While they were at a house party, it began to rain and Jordan lied about leaving a
convertible's top down. Nick suddenly remembered hearing a story about Jordan cheating in a big
golf tournament. She was accused of moving her ball from a bad lie in the semi-final round and
the situation nearly reached the proportions of a scandal. The caddy ended up retracting his
statement and the witness admitted that he might have been mistaken. Nick proceeds to say that
Jordan purposely avoided "clever shrewd men" to hide her natural flaw. Nick concludes
by saying,

"She [Jordan] was incurably dishonest. She
wasnt able to endure being at a disadvantage, and given this unwillingness I suppose she had
begun dealing in subterfuges when she was very young in order to keep that cool, insolent smile
turned to the world and yet satisfy the demands of her hard jaunty body" (Fitzgerald,
64).

Overall, Nick learns that Jordan Baker is a
dishonest person who cannot help but tell lies and fabricate stories.

Good morning I'm studying The Crucible at the moment and would like some guidance in writing some study notes on how Miller describes the world...

provides information about the characters and setting in the extensive stage directions and
through the characters dialogue. In the beginning of Act One, there are several pages of
background information. Miller introduces Reverend Parris and situates his character within the
village where he is a minister. By taking time to situate one individual within his home and his
social environment, Miller creates interest in Parriss story so that the play has concrete
elements, not merely abstract concepts. In addition, he presents Parris as a father who,
ironically, had no interest in€¦ or talent with children. Once we have read such a statement,
we will continue to look for behavior that supports the playwrights assertion. Parriss inability
to deal with the girls as children is clearly shown in the courtroom with his treatment of Mary
Warren.

Those stage directions also present a general image of the social
environment in Salem, which will help the reader understand Millers interpretation of the
reasons that the Salemdeveloped. He emphasizes the need to unity that the people of Salem
desired, and presents thethat this desire in fact drove them apart.

Evidently the time came in New England when the repressions of order were heavier than
seemed warranted by the dangers against which the order was organized.

In the Note on the Historical Accuracy at the beginning, Miller
points out that little concrete data was available about many individuals, and he merged some
into composites. For some characters, Miller provides a brief biography when he introduces them.
Others are developed primarily through their interactions with other characters and in group
scenes. While not all of the girls who make accusations stand out as individuals, each has some
defining characteristics so that the audience understands the reasons they behave as they do
while interacting with their peers. Although Abigail clearly has the personality of a
ring-leader, we also need to be shown why other girls, especially Mary Warren and Mercy Lewis,
would be persuaded to follow her.

Regarding other individuals, not just the
girls, Miller says the witch-hunt provided an opportunity to express their own guilt and sins
disguised with the witchcraft accusations. As he presents the characters, he mentions grudges
they had against neighbors, and later shows how those long-standingresentments were expressed
through the accusations. This is made evident in the conflict between Thomas Putnam and Giles
Corey, which leads to Coreys brutal killing.

Describe the difference between rising rhythm and falling rhythm in poetry.

First, meter measures units of rhythmic
repetition within a verse (line) of poetry.These metrical units are called
feet. The standard meters are:

Hexameter, six feet; Heptameter, seven feet; and Octameter, eight feet.

Rhythm options in the English language, which are based
upon syllabic accent, are the rhythms
of: imab, trochee, anapest, dactyl, spondee, and .
Iambs have one unaccented syllable followed by one accented syllable (per^

Discuss the mockingbird symbol in relation to Tom Robinson.

One of
the overwhelmingof is that of empathy. We see this theme most prominently
in the character of , who's defining philosophy is to always withhold judgement and understand
where someone else is coming from. Atticus tells his children that it is a sin to kill a
mockingbird because all a mockingbird does is sing. It has no nature or capacity to harm others,
and therefore it is sinful to kill one. Even though children would never get in any kind of
trouble for killing one, even though it is not against the law to kill one, a decent man would
consider such an act immoral.

Such is the case with Tom Robinson. In the

What is the most common meter used in poetry, and why do authors choose to use it in writing poetry?

The most
common meter used in poetry is iambic pentameter (penta=five). Poets choose to use this meter
when writing poetry because it gives the poem a strong underlying structure as a formal writing
device. Iambic pentameter can be rhymed or unrhymed. In the case of unrhymed it is called
.

For iambic pentameter, a line consists of five feet. A metrical foot in
poetry goes by the name iamb. An iamb typically consists of one unstressed syllable and then a
stressed syllable. There are variations of iambs that can be used in a poem so as to break up
what sometimes can be a monotonous beat to a poem, especially if it is a long one.

This monotony can hypnotize a reader who can end up concentrating on the regularity of
the beat of the poem and end up not paying attention to the words and the message being
conveyed. You can liken this to listening to a tune on the radio with a steady unvarying beat,
and tapping your feet but not really paying attention to the words.

Variations to the unstressed/stressed paradigm include trochees, anapests, dactyls, and
spondees. For example, an anapest consists of two unstressed syllables and one stressed
syllable. Therefore, the poems beat and rhythm is altered, which makes for a pleasant variation
for the poems reader.

Iambic pentameter does have a regularity to it, which
gives a poem a more formal tone and sophistication. It moves a poem along nicely and
systematically and imparts a musicality and rhythm to a poem. This is why it was and still is
popular. In fact, literary journals exist that are devoted entirely to formal poetry writing as
opposed to .

When did art begin and how was it passed on?

This is a
hard question, because you first need to define art. The previous post defined art as: (1)
creative, (2) pleasing the eye, (2) exciting the emotions. I don't know if I would agree with
that definition. If you go to the Modern museum or art or any other place, there is a great
creative vibe, but not all art pleases the eye. Some art is meant to offend and make a person
feel uncomfortable. Art that depicts death, for instance. Also not all art is meant to excite
the emotions. Some art is meant to soothe. So, we first need to define art, which will never be
done to everyone's satisfaction.

My opinion is that art began right at the
beginning. I think there is an innate quality in humans that wants to create. You see it in
children and no one tell them what art is. In short, I think it is an innate human
quality.

What is the summary of how the Allies defeated Germany?

The Allies defeated
Germany in part because they had more resources, particularly after the United States entered
the war in late 1941. After that point, the tide of the war began to shift in the Allies' favor.
In the Pacific Theater, the Allies used Hawaii and Australia as launching points for their
strategy of "island hopping" or "leap frogging," which involved attacking
less defended islands in the Pacific en route to approaching mainland Japan. The Battle of
Midway in June of 1942 was the first important Allied victory on the way to ever-closer attacks
on Japan. The war culminated first with incendiary bombing over Japanese cities and then with
the detonation of two atomic bombs in August of 1945, leading to Japanese
capitulation.

In the Western Front in Europe, the Allies began with an
assault on German troops in North Africa in 1942. Led by American general Eisenhower, the
attack, which included forces from Britain, New Zealand, and Australia, was successful, and from
there, the Allies headed to Sicily and up the Italian boot, meeting with fierce German
resistance. At the same time, the Allies conducted heavy bombing over German cities such as
Dresden. On the Eastern Front, the Russians repelled a German invasion, incurring heavy military
and civilian losses. The Allies launched an amphibious attack on Normandy in France during D-Day
in June of 1944 and, from there, fought their way to Berlin, where the Soviets met them in the
final days of the war. In the end, the Allied manpower and resources overwhelmed those of
Germany, Japan, and the other Axis powers. 

Identity a moment in which the relationship between Elie and his father shifts. What is elie wiesel trying to say about the ways in which...

A significant moment in which s relationship
with his father Shlomo shifts in is when Shlomo is beaten by one of the
prison guards during his and Elies shift counting electrical fittings in a civilian warehouse.
Though certainly not the first time Shlomo encounters violence at the hands of a guard, in this
moment Elie describes his reaction to his fathers beating as that of anger toward his father
rather than toward the guard. Elie feels that his father should have been able to avoid the
guards rage. He writes,

...if I felt anger at that moment, it was not
directed at the Kapo but at my father. Why couldnt he have avoided Ideks wrath? That was what
life in a concentration camp had made of me€¦

In the section prior, Elie
expresses the exact opposite sentiment after witnessing violence against his father. While in
the barracks, or living quarters, Shlomo asks a guard where he may find a bathroom. He is
subsequently beaten for the inquiry. Elie proceeds to shame himself for his inability to defend
his father and prevent his beating. The distinct shift between Section Three, where Elie feels
anger toward the guard, and Section Four, where he feels it toward his father, demonstrates how
quickly the camps mentally affected the familial relationships between prisoners. Elies
relationship with his father, one of comfort, of love, and of familiarity, has been turned on
its head by the concentration camp. In this nightmarish world of beatings, silencing, and
constant executions, Elie is no longer able to understand his relationship with his father, and
the camps role in this shift is what Elie seeks to prove about changing relationships. The
utterly foreign environment of the camps does not afford its prisoners the ability to operate
and relate to one another in the ways they were formerly accustomed; instead, each prisoner must
operate under a mode that ensures self preservation. Unfortunately, this mode greatly affects
Elies relationship with his father.

Describe the political, economic, and social changes that occurred during Reconstruction.

Murl Larson

Reconstruction was a dynamic period in American history. Politically, Republicans made
massive gains as people associated the Democratic party with secession, though many urban areas,
such as New York, remained Democratic. Union army veterans became a reliable voting bloc for the
Republican Party, and they pressured Congress for pensions for their service. African American
males won the right to vote in 1870, with the Fifteenth Amendment, though they were kept away
from the polls in the South by the Ku Klux Klan and other terrorist groups. Despite efforts to
keep them away, black men in many Southern locations still voted for their pre-war leaders, with
Alexander Stevens of Georgia being a prime example of a former Confederate who was able to
return to Congress after the war.

Economically, many former slaves moved
north in order to find jobs. The West also enjoyed an emigration boom as railroad construction
increased, making it easier for people to move west for homesteading, mining, or...

What Motto Does Major Give The Animals

, the
prize Middle White boar pig of Manor Farm, died only three days after he called the animals

band together in perfect unity and comradeship against human subjugation. During his speech, Old
Major made several important points that would serve as mottos for the animals. One was that

that "Whatever goes upon two legs is the enemy. Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings,

How is language learned, according to the Behaviorist theory of language acquisition?

booksnake

"Language acquisition" refers to the process of learning a language, although
behaviorist ideas of language acquisition specifically seek to understand how people learn their
native language, while only being more generally applicable to foreign language
learning.

Because behaviorists frame language as a behavior, they argue that
the process of language acquisition, for an infant, is similar to the process of learning other
behaviors. Infants mimic the behaviors they see other people model, and correct imitation is
rewarded by other people in their environment, allowing for these successes to...

What do the child Want and the child Ignorance represent as they appear from the Ghost of Christmas Present's robe in A Christmas Carol?

The children
represent those who were living in poverty, with no hope of improving their lot due to lack of
education and lack of opportunity. The Ghost of Christmas Present was sheltering them as
representatives of all those who were discounted and decried by Scrooge. Instead of contributing
to charitable organizations that could help improve their lot, Scrooge's action was to ask
"Are there no prisons?...Are there no workhouses?"

The Ghost

unaddressed.

How does the makeup of the major Indian castes compare to and contrast with the social structures of the Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations?

All three
civilizations were highly stratified, with low social mobility. In general, within all three
civilizations, ancestry was destiny, in the sense that most people followed fixed paths in life
determined by their birth. In general, the son of a slave would be a slave; the son of a potter,
a potter; and the daughter of an aristocrat would marry an aristocrat. However, the system of
social stratification was far more complex and rigid and more closely tied to religious belief
in India than in Egypt and Mesopotamia.

First, the Indian caste system was
based on a theology of karma, in which one's actions in previous life determined what caste one
was born into, and progression through castes could only occur by rebirth into a different caste
after death. While social mobility was limited in Egypt and Mesopotamia, there were no formal
rules forbidding it. Nor was there any equivalent to the dalit or untouchable caste. While all
three cultures had nobles, priests, scribes, artisans,...

Who founded Islam?

The
Prophet Muhammad was the founder of Islam. Muhammad was a merchant who was born in and lived in
Mecca, a commercial hub on the Arabian peninsula. He worked along the many trade routes that
traversed the region and became wealthy in the process. As he entered middle age, the Archangel
Gabriel appeared to him and commanded him to recite a series of revelations that he made to him.
These became the foundation of the Qur'an, and the basic truth that was revealed was that there
was no God other than Allah, a departure from the polytheism practiced throughout much of the
region. Muhammad was forced to leave Mecca due to the unpopularity of his message with many of
the wealthy merchants in that city, and went to Medinah in 622, a journey known as the
hijrah. He returned triumphantly a few years later as his preaching had
popularized his message to the point where even Mecca's elites had embraced it. After his death,
Islam spread along trade routes and through Arab military expansion through the Middle East,
North Africa, and the old Byzantine Empire.

What are examples of Greek values shown in the Odyssey besides hospitality and family values?

I would
say that one of the most striking example of Greek values displayed in 's work comes when
Odysseus tours the underworld.  The Greek value of honoring the dead as well as the immense
respect that the Greek culture had towards the human soul comes out in this instant.  Odysseus
travels through the underworld and does not silence the voices of the dead that inhabit it.
 Homer is able to construct a setting in which Odysseus acknowledges a form of reverential debt
that the dead have paid in order for Odysseus to be in the land of the living.  When Odysseus
listens to the different stories of the different souls in the underworld, it highlights the
Greek value of respecting the dead.  Odysseus does this in Book XI in his tours of the
underworld.  At the same time, I think that Odysseus' experience highlights the Greek value of
the immortality of the soul.  The dead are not really "dead" in the traditional sense.
 Achilles embraces this as he gives his own opinion of mortality to Odysseus as one in which
life, in whatever form, is to be revered.  Hearing this from one who has passed into another
realm is another form of respecting the dead and the notion of the soul's immortality.  Both
Greek values are present in the moment in which Odysseus voyages through the
Underworld.

What does KBI stand for in In Cold Blood?

KBI stands
for the Kansas Bureau Of Investigation. In the novel
In Cold Blood,details the 1959 murders of four members of the Clutter
family (Herb, Bonnie, Nancy, and Kenyon) in Holcomb, Kansas. The killers are Perry Smith and
Dick Hickok, both on parole at the time of the murders; accordingly, Dick's last cellmate in
prison, Floyd Wells, who was a former Clutter farm hand, had unwittingly informed Dick that it
sometimes cost Herb Clutter ten thousand dollars a week to keep his farm running.

Based on the information, both Perry and Dick drive from Olathe to River Valley Farm in
Holcomb, where the family lives. They murder the Clutter family in cold blood despite being
unsuccessful in uncovering the fabled ten thousand dollars at the Clutter residence. After
committing the murders, both men flee the scene without leaving a trace of their
presence.

In the story, Alvin Dewey and his team of investigators from the
Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) proceed to interview anyone remotely connected to the
Clutters in a bid to discover the identity of the murderers. Eventually, Dewey is able to
interview Dick's ex-cellmate, Floyd Wells.

When Dewey later shows his wife,
Marie, dossiers with photographs of the two murderers, it is noted that Dick Hickok's KBI number
is 97 093. He also has an FBI (Federal Bureau Of Investgation) number 859 273 A. The FBI and KBI
store fingerprint and criminal records of felons in their file systems. Local law enforcement
agencies can request to see the criminal records of certain felons if KBI or FBI numbers are
available to them.

What are some similarities between Victor Frankenstein and his monster in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein?

In 's
, one of its major ironies is howis often perceived as a monster, but
howrivals the creature for that label.

The creature is someone who is in
great pain, most especially because he has been isolated and alienated by human beings. He feels
very much alone. This is demonstrated as the creature describes his desperate attempt to connect
with the De Lacey family:

I am an unfortunate and deserted
creature; I look around, and I have no relation or friend upon earth. These amiable people to
whom I go have never seen me, and know little of me. I am full of fears; for if I fail there, I
am an outcast in the world for ever.

As the creature

and isolationfamily members are lost, and he has a secret that he cannot share: he is to blame

1984 presents Orwell's definition of dystopia as a warning to us. What specifically is Orwell warning us against and how does he achieve this?

What effect did the baby boom have on Canadian society during the 1950's and what will the population pyramid for Canada look like 15 years from now...

Hello!
Like that of their American counterparts, the Canadian birthrate multiplied after
WWII.

What effect did the baby boom have on Canadian
society?

1) Because more people were marrying at younger ages
and having more children during the Boomer years, the growth of the Canadian population exceeded
expectations during this period. The phenomena of the lonely soldier coming back from war
precipitated many of these births. The marriages and births postponed from the Depression era
now saw their fruition during the Boomer years. The Boomer years lasted for 20 years in Canada
and saw the birth of more than 8.2 million babies.

2) Because of the increase
in population, many Canadian families moved to suburban communities to escape the crowding in
the cities.

3) Increased economic progress contributed to newer and better
products on the market. With the advent of the television, more people could access
entertainment at their fingertips.

In George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion, who is Eliza Doolittle?

In s 1912
play , the character of Eliza Doolittle is described by the playwright as a
destitute, clearly uneducated flower girl plying her trade on the rainy sidewalks of upper class
London.  When Eliza is introduced, it is in the midst of a collision with a doorman frantically
attempting to locate a cab for an exceedingly unreasonable woman and her daughter.  Cast once
more into the torrential downpour, the hapless doorman collides with Eliza, described as
follows:

She is not at all an attractive person. She is
perhaps eighteen, perhaps twenty, hardly older. She wears a little sailor hat of black straw
that has long been exposed to the dust and soot of London and has seldom if ever been brushed.
Her hair needs washing rather badly: its mousy color can hardly be natural. She wears a shoddy
black coat that reaches nearly to her knees and is shaped to her waist. She has a brown skirt
with a coarse apron. Her boots are much the worse for wear. She is no doubt as clean as she can
afford to be; but compared to the ladies she is very dirty. Her features are no worse than
theirs; but their condition leaves something to be desired; and she needs the services of a
dentist]. 

Putting aside theof any citizen of England
commenting negatively on another citizen of Englands dental situation, Shaw clearly intends
Eliza to represent a suitable project for which the plays other , Henry Higgins, can indulge in
a wager regarding his ability to transform his human subject into a representative of Londons
elite.  Eliza is desperately poor, and the contrasts among Englands social classes was
notoriously dramatic.  That within that course exterior lied the heart of a lovely young woman
was Pygmalions point.  The old adage of not judging on the basis of outward
appearances found its ultimate manifestation in Shaws play, since renamed My Fair
Lady and a regular source of material for stage and film productions.  Eliza
Doolittle has become synonymous with the potential within an individual otherwise rejected for
his or her appearance.

The poem "The Clown's Wife" represents the difference between the personal and professional lives of people. Do you agree?

There are actually two questions implied
here, so I'll give you some guidance for both.

One question is whether the
reader agrees that this is the theme of the poem. I think it would be difficult to find textual
support otherwise. The speaker notes the way her husband is a "king on a throne" at
work and although he performs well on stage, he comes home with the "world on his
shoulder." His wife then becomes the performer, doing what is needed to cheer
him.

Another question is whether people generally do thisact one way at work
and another way at home. Although a generalization like this could not possibly apply to every
circumstance, people do (generally) feel more comfortable at home and are more themselves (good
and bad). Venting about work and school, pent up all day because of social restrictions, spills
out at home. True passions are shared at home. Deep conversations, which people can't
necessarily have at work due to a lack of time or a lack of meaningful relationships there,
happen at home as well. Additionally, every personal relationship has differing demands on a
person. The dynamics of a boss/employee relationship is different, for example, than the
dynamics of a mother/daughter relationship. So I do think that people generally behave
differently at work (or school) than at home, but that isn't necessarily a negative
thing.

How does the author of "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" describe the cultural and physical landscape of the south?

The cultural landscape is presented primarily
through the eyes of the grandmother. Outwardly, she is concerned with her appearance, as noted
by the details in her traveling attire:

The old lady
settled herself comfortably, removing her white cotton gloves and putting them up with her purse
on the shelf in front of the back window. [She] had on a navy blue straw sailor hat with a bunch
of white violets on the brim and a navy blue dress with a small white dot in the print. Her
collars and cuffs were white organdy trimmed with lace and at her neckline she had pinned a
purple spray of cloth violets containing a sachet.

All of
these efforts in presenting herself well are to ensure that in the case of an accident, people
will know at once that she is a "lady." Of course, thehere is that by behavior and
thought, she doesn't present herself as a lady at all.

Her inner character
doesn't reflect the same efforts at ladylike behavior. When she catches a glimpse of a little
African American boy while driving, she exclaims,

"Oh
look at the cute little pickaninny!" she said and pointed to a Negro child standing in the
door of a shack. "Wouldn't that make a picture, now?" she asked.

Thus, the cultural landscape is presented as a superficial effort
at outer civilities while masking a dark and racist inner reality.

The
physical landscape mirrors the grandmother's journey: moments of beautiful calm followed by
sharp turns toward ominous danger.

The grandmother
recalled the times when there were no paved roads and thirty miles was a day's journey. The dirt
road was hilly and there were sudden washes in it and sharp curves on dangerous embankments. All
at once they would be on a hill, looking down over the blue tops of trees for miles around, then
the next minute, they would be in a red depression with the dust-coated trees looking down on
them.

The landscape can change quickly in the South,
providing a clear view one moment and swallowing one up the next. The grandmother finds herself
in much the same predicament, enjoying a peaceful journey one moment and meeting her death the
next. The physical landscape thus mirrors a diverse cultural landscape in the South.

The cultural and physical landscapes provide the needed backdrop for the Misfit and the
conflict which ultimately forces the grandmother to face her superficial beliefs in the final
scene with the Misfit.

What are Orwell's major concerns in Animal Farm?

Although many
people think is a direct attack on Communist Soviet Union, he actually
uses the Soviet's as an example to show the danger of totalitarian governments and that
corruption is inevitble when one becomes too powerful.  He also wants to warm readers about the
dangers of revolutions and how they more often amount to pointless violence as the new
government becomes even more corrupt than the original government once it gets its taste of
power.  The pigs in the story prove all of this, as they originally set out with the goal of
improving the farm; however, they soon lose their way and take advantage of the lesser animals
when it benefits them to do so.  By the end of the book, the pigs (the new government) are no
different than Mr. Jones (the old government).  Consequently, life on Animal Farm for all the
animals except the pigs and the dogs are no better, arguably worse, than they were before the
Animal Revolution.

Westward expansion was a cornerstone of U.S. policy in the
administrations of Presidents Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) and Martin Van Buren (1837-1841).
Policy and related practice focused on providing land to white settlers, generally by taking it
from Native Americans. In 1830, Congress passed the Indian Removal Act, authorizing treaty
agreements and forced relocation of Native peoples. The major phase occurred between 1835 and

What is a central issue in Hills Like White Elephants?

This is a
tough question on a couple of levels.  The first is that any discussion of a central issue of
the short story remains unfulfilled because Hemingway does not render much in way of absolute
judgment and clear certainty.  I would say that one issue that comes out of the short story is
the difficulty in relationships.  Jig and the American are involved with one another, certainly
reflecting some level of commitment to one another.  Yet, there is difficulty in both of them in
terms of their approach of the "procedure" that is the center of their discussion.  On
one hand, the American continually stresses that he is fine with whatever Jig chooses to do. 
Yet, there is an undercurrent in his conversation and discussion with her that he wants her to
go with the abortion.  This psychological dynamic is only mirrored by Jig's challenges with
trying to determine what the right thing is to do and how to reconcile with this in her
relationship.  The questions that end up dominating her mind only add to the complexity of the
choice needing to be made.  In this, the central issue of the short story becomes evident in
that relationships make choices and consequences even more complex than they already are. The
traditional thinking would be that a relationship would make the issue of choice and the reality
of consequences clearer because of two reasonable people engaging in a process of reasonability
and clarity.  I think that this becomes the central issue of the short story, and something that
makes clear the often confusing and lack of clarity that exists in relationships and the
emotional challenges within them.

Describe the political and social revolutions that occurred in the Atlantic world between 1750 and 1850 and the ideas that inspired these changes.

The century
between 1750 and 1850 was a revolutionary period that included the American Revolution, the
French Revolution, the Haitian Revolution of 1791, the Batavian Revolution of 1795, the Spanish
American Wars of Independence that began with Napoleon's invasion of Spain in 1809-10, and the
various revolts that spread across Europe in 1848.

While some of the
revolutions, such as the American, Haitian, and Spanish American, were revolts against a
colonizing power and a bid for independence, all the revolutions shared similar underlying
themes. The ideas that motivated all these revolutions were republicanism, democracy, and
equality.

All three of these ideas may seem normal and pedestrian to us,
especially if we live in the United States, but these concepts were radical, and to the power
