English
1 answer:
dimulka [17.4K]2 years ago

Answer:

<em>The kayak is a poem about a hardy Eskimo who paddles unbothered along a salty water body in his little kayak</em>, bracing extreme snowy weather and waves. Along this journey, he is surrounded by sea-birds that seem at home even in the ocean's roar, and goes past floating icebergs and their melting streams and  is occasionally covered up by waves. All these conditions does not deter him as he rights his kayak every time with his paddle and sails on onward.

Explanation:

the poem is shown below

The Kayak

Over the briny wave I go,

In spite of the weather, in spite of the snow:

What cares the hardy Eskimo?

In my little skiff, with paddle and lance,

I glide where the foaming billows dance.

Round me the sea-birds slip and soar;

Like me, they love the ocean's roar.

Sometimes a floating iceberg gleams

Above me with its melting streams;

Sometimes a rushing wave will fall

Down on my skiff and cover it all.

But what care I for a wave's attack?

With my paddle I right my little kayak,

And then its weight I speedily trim,

And over the water away I skim.

What is a common characteristic of Southern Gothic literature? Select all that apply.
Fynjy0 [20]

"Southern gothic literature" is a term used to encompass a particular strain of literature from the American South. It originated in the 19th century, evolving from American Gothic, which in turn, evolved from English Gothic literature. Its characteristics include irrational, horrific and transgressive thoughts, grotesque characters, dark humor. This genre is rooted in the South's tensions and aberrations related to slavery, racism and patriarchy.

Therefore, the characteristics that would apply are:

  • set only in the South, (although there are some examples that are considered within this genre but the setting is not  a recognizable southern one, such as some Poe's poems)
  • romanticized southern life and culture
  • disturbed and twisted characters
