Otrada [13]

Answer:

Wherever the crime novels of P.D. James are discussed by critics, there is a tendency on the one hand to <u><em>exaggerate</em></u> her merits and on the other to <u><em>castigate</em></u> her as a genre writer who is getting above herself. Perhaps underlying the debate is that familiar, false opposition set up between different kinds of fiction, according to which<u><em> enjoyable</em></u> novels are held to be somehow slightly lowbrow, and a novel is not considered true literature unless it is a tiny bit dull.

Explanation:

P. D. James (Phyllis Dorothy James) was an English Crime writer born on 3 August 1920. She is famously known for her series of detective novels including police commander and the poet Adam Dalgliesh.

Read the excerpts from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry” and “Speaking Arabic.” My friend had concluded that if he took hi
arlik [135]

The correct answer is: Each author uses figurative language.

Indeed, the first author uses figurative language (he took the tortillas out of his poetry) which is followed by a very explicit explanation, that the character in question “took the soul out of his poetry”. This use of figurative language is effective in eliciting an emotional response from the reader by the pathos of the premise, that removing foreign, Mexican Spanish words from the character’s poetry also removes its soul, in other words, its identity.

The second author also uses figurative language and there is a hint of irony in the description that immediately follows the dialogue. The immediate landscape is used to show the “heritage-deprived” person that he actually does have a heritage. In other words, he does not need to be a hyphenated American in order to have a heritage because it is right there “dangling over his head”.

The symbolism of the “tall American tree” is used to show how the speaker of these lines that America has its own heritage, which lies in its history, its melting pot and its territory and he cannot even see it.
