<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • The excerpt above is an example of Harte's use of <u>humor</u>.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Humor is an abstract apparatus that means to initiate beguilement or chuckling. Its motivation is to break the dreariness, weariness, and repetitiveness, and influence the gathering of people's nerves to unwind.

Harte utilizes comic scenes, discourse, and depictions to counterbalance the deplorability of the story and to shield it from transforming into acting. A great part of the diversion depends on metaphor. Once in a while this is turned around to modest representation of the truth, in which the words appear to be unreasonably immaterial for the event.

Read the lines from Robert Hayden’s poem "Monet’s ‘Waterlilies,’” and then look at the painting Water Lilies by Claude Monet.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: The  right answer is the second one: An allusion to conflict.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit more on the answer, it is relevant to mention that American poet Robert Hayden (1913-1980) was very concerned with the experiences and history of Black Americans, hence his reference to two major conflicts that directly affected that community: the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War, represented by the cities of Selma and Saigon, respectively. From the city of Selma, in Alabama, departed, in 1965, a series of protest marches organized with the goal of claiming the constitutional right of African Americans to vote. Those who participated in them were violently attacked, arrested and even killed. At the same time, and paradoxically, many African Americans had been sent to Vietnam in order to fight in the war and freed the South Vietnamese people, even though their own rights were not protected in their own country. For that reason, one of the major American Civil Rights Movement organization, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, became the first one in publicly showing opposition to the war, linking the two movements (anti-Vietnam war and Civil Rights Movement) inextricably.

It is for that reason that the speaker in Hayden’s poem resorts to Monet’s famous painting, which captures the serenity and the beauty of a little corner of his Japanese garden, in an attempt to escape, if only for a moment, from that violent reality.
