Literature and the Holocaust have a complicated relationship. This isn't to say, of course, that the pairing isn't a fruitful one—the Holocaust has influenced, if not defined, nearly every Jewish writer since, from Saul Bellow to Jonathan Safran Foer, and many non-Jews besides, like W.G. Sebald and Jorge Semprun. Still, literature qua art—innately concerned with representation and appropriation—seemingly stands opposed to the immutability of the Holocaust and our oversized obligations to its memory. Good literature makes artistic demands, flexes and contorts narratives, resists limpid morality, compromises reality's details. Regarding the Holocaust, this seems unconscionable, even blasphemous. The horrors of Auschwitz and Buchenwald need no artistic amplification.

1. (a) In "Avarice," the speaker notes four different items "she" keeps.
4vir4ik [10]

All three poems are about money.

Explanation:

1. In Avarice, line 1 opens with a direct address to a personified “Money,” treating money as if it were a living thing, which, as the rest of the poem will show, in a way it is. Human beings have almost brought money to life by worshipping it instead of God. The poem is about greed and the poet says money is got from dirty mines.

2. In 'The Good Life' the poet found peace in being hungry all the time, This is very strange. The poet compares money to a lover who went to get milk and never returned. She says her money simple vanished.

3. In 'Money', the poet says what money means to people. Money not only helps people to survive but it is considered as an addiction.

Write an essay of at least 150 words describing one of the main themes of "A Wedding Gift." Use details from the story to suppor
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The theme chosen for the rehearsal was: The importance of the wedding gift for Indian culture.

Explanation:

Wedding gifts are a very important point to highlight in the most different cultures in the world. In all regions, this type of gift is very welcome and while some countries, the gift does not have to be something thought out, elaborated (and sometimes not even given), in India it is taken very seriously.

For the Indians, the wedding gift means a lot to the bride and groom and always has to be given an object that is very useful and functional that helps in domestic life and brings beauty to the home.

Plates, cutlery, glasses, furniture are the most prominent wedding gifts in this culture. This says a lot about the affection and care that guests have with the bride and groom. This indicates that the guests want to help with domestic life.

This vision of the present is very beneficial because it avoids the economic expense and the purchase of expensive, garish things that are useless, besides occupying space and dust. In addition, gift-giving narrows the bonds between families and friends, which is one of the most important bonds we have.
