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."

What an
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
years." Are we to take that to mean that she has been ignored and friendless? If so, then
she is like Eveline, who has given her life to her family. When she finally sees the opportunity
to live for...

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.
