The eerie mood is created initially because of the subject matter of the poem. The character of Death is introduced in the first stanza, and since the 'd' is capitalized, it's clear that Dickinson is personifying death into an actual person. Thinking about Death in this way, as someone who stops to pick you up and having to get into his carriage to take the ride away from life is creepy in itself. This eeriness is supported when she uses the line "The dews grew quivering and chill." The words quivering and chill help to strengthen the eeriness that the subject matter creates. She also refers to the setting sun, which again helps give the poem an overall spooky feeling.

In Stalin's opinion, why did the USSR decide to go to war with Germany?​
gulaghasi [49]

The correct answer is A) because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause.

<em>In Stalin's opinion, the USSR decide to go to war with Germany because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause. </em>

Joseph Stalin was a dictator. The people that surround him, his advisors, often said yes to everything he said. So in Stalin's mind, the Soviet Union had to wage war against Germany because he thought he had total support from the people in Russia; even dissenters in Germany. So he considered that he was fighting the tyrant Hitler and his expansionist ideas that included an invasion to the USSR territory as he did.  

The other options of the question were b) because Britain would be fighting with the Soviets, c) because Soviet troops had received threats from German ships, and d) because Hitler took Polish territory when he broke the nonaggression pact.

In at least one hundred words, explain the basic structure of 1001 Nights.
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

i hope these are hepful

Explanation:

It is a series of 1,000 poems, each of which tells a story. If you put together the first line of each of the poems, you get a final story, which is #1001, hence the title. Each of the poems was written by a different Persian poet in the 15th through 18th centuries and later translated into English. Most of them deal with legends from the Mongol Empire that were told by troubadours along the trade routes of Bucharest and Kamchatka

It is a group of stories which are interrupted by "Scherazade saw morning and discreetly fell silent"  The following night the story telling begins right after the interruption.  The interruptions are based on the length of the story and during some nights 2 or 3 short stories are told.  Some of these stories are organized into groups such as "Garden of verses". Many of the stories take place during the time of Haroun, Caliph of Bagdad. It is on 1001th night that all the stories have been told. .

How does the scandal referred to as ""The Doctors’ Plot"" contribute to the author’s characterization of Stalin?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

It proves he was racist against Jewish people.

Explanation:

For Stalin, whose deeds easily matched those of Hitler and whose deceits had been evident throughout his life, the Doctors' Plot and intended show trial were meant to cleanse the Soviet Union of “foreign,” “cosmopolitan,” and “Zionist” (read Jewish) elements.
