In this excerpt from “Ode on a Grecian Urn” by John Keats, which four parts reflect the theme that art is immortal?

Andre45 [30]

This poem with 5 strophes underlines in 4th of them (1,2,3,5) that art is immortal. The théme of the poem is the immortality of art.

The speaker of the poem is a man who observes a Grecian urn and describes the frozen moment painted on it.

He describes it on the first moment, then he concludes time will never pass for the painted persons, finally, he remembers his generation and assumes they´ll be forgotten.

The frozen scene:

Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave

Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare;

She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss,

Forever wilt thou love, and she is fair!

Time will never pass:

Ah, happy, happy boughs! that cannot shed

Forever warm and still to be enjoyed,

Forever panting, and forever young;

The conclusion:

When old age shall this generation waste,

Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woes

Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,

"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all

Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."

Determine whether the following characteristics describe conditions in Germany before or after unification.

Gelneren [198K]

Answers, with explanations:

written constitution = after unification

During revolutions in 1848-1849, the Frankfurt Parliament had produced a constitution for a unified Germany, but that move was rejected at the time by the king of Prussia, to whom the constitution was offered.

300 German states = before unification

The German states had a long history of sovereignty in their individual territories. Unification meant bringing all those states together into one national entity.

trade facilitated in the region = before unification

The Zollverein, or customs union, was created between the German states in the 1830s. This eliminated customs tariffs between states and was a step that began moving in the direction of unification.

risk of French aggression = before unification

Germany became a united empire after the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. Victory over France in that war by the German states operating as a coalition was part of what brought about unification.

boundaries changed by Napoleon = before unification

When Napoleon conquered territories throughout Europe in the early 1800s, he rearranged borders to enhance his empire's management of conquered territories. In the German states, this made them work together in ways they had not before, and was a catalyst toward desires for unification.

two-house legislature = after unification

There was a legislature in the North German Confederation (1867-1870), which preceded unification. But that was a single-house (unicameral) parliament, whereas the Reichstag (legislature) of the unified German Empire was bicameral.
