<span>Nature, for Bryant, does not have much consolation to offer to the reader who is experiencing depressing thoughts about death. The best Bryant can say is that it happens to everybody and that Nature will continue to exist in all its wonder and beauty after we are gone.</span>

Answer:

Nature has a conversation with "her lover" depending on his mood. She talks to him happily when he is happy and cheers him up when he is sad. She also comforts him when thoughts of death upset him. In personifying nature, Bryant makes readers ponder how it acts as a constant companion in every step of human life, and even after death.

According to Kant, one barrier to enlightenment is _____.
AVprozaik [17]

The answer is C: most societies do not allow the level of freedom necessary to achieve enlightenment.

Kant argues in the brief but extremely important essay, <em>What is Enlightenment?, </em>that society, before the age of Enlightenment, which Kant precisely defines in this essay, has behaved like a minor in as much as a child cannot think for himself but rather is given the guidelines for his behavior. Kant then claims that it is time for society, and everyone in it, to become an adult and dare think for one´s self, imposing the guidelines for thought and action based on one´s own transcendental discovery of the limits of thought, what can be thought, and what that, in practical terms, entails for every individual´s freedom. This moment in society could not have been reached without the achievements gained through the Enlightenment that provide the necessary and qualified freedom that society as a whole lacked before it.

In at least two hundred words, explain how the ending of the story is an example of situational irony.
miskamm [114]

The facts that are told at the end of the story are in sharp contrast to those that unleash the tragedy that Desiree and her son have to live. Only in the last few lines we discover that her husband knows the true cause of the dark color of the child's skin, which derives from the color of his own mother and has nothing to do with the unknown facts that cover the real origin of Desiree, since his filiation was not known from the beggining.

The irony is graphed in the fact that Desiree's husband could not have ignored that his mother was a dark-skinned woman, as he lived with her for the first eight years of his life and in addition to that, in the end, we also got to know that he was in possession of that letter that informed him the truth, in the probably event that he had forgotten it over the years.

The mistreatment he gave to his slaves was then the most important contradiction, although we can observe that his character softens after the birth of his son, even so having to see him daily was probably a permanent reminder of a shame he was trying to leave behind.
