Twain’s use of dialect in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn contributes to the realism of the story by making the settings and character more convincing  for the readers. By adding accurate social dialects into his story, Twain depicts a truthful vision of the souther society that fits the characters' backgrounds, the time period and the location. This is no exception in the case of Huck and Jim. Jim, in this novel, is a slave who is less educated than the average person; therefore, to make his character more believable to the readers, Jim's way of speaking uses slang, shortened words and improper grammar. This can be seen in phrases like "Whar is you?", "ag'in", "sumf'n", etc.

Answer:

Explanation: Realism, as the title itself suggests a literary period where the writers are more inclined towards portraying the subjects as they are in life and depicts an escape from the fictional and imaginative world of earlier writers which had misled people to think of a utopian world. Mark Twain is the master of this art. Along with him, all the realists provided more attention to the characters than the plot. The characters are complex and multi-layered and present an affiliation to authenticity and truthfulness of the inner conflicts of the people which leads to several undesired actions as it happens in day-to-day life and outer reality at that time. The speech pattern of the realist writers are natural and true to life through which the audience could relate themselves which was the key feature of Twain's writings like In "The adventures of Huckleberry Finn" the use of dialects is relating it to the "average person". he has established himself as a pioneer of "American Realism". The way he presents the stories has enriched the literature with a new dimension of realism which is focusing more on reality and psychological developments in the character's mind contrary to previous fabrications of the fictional texts.

What is the best summary of this paragraph?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

For the most part of the war, armies preserved old military tactics (fieldwork) of espionage rather than fully adapting to new techniques.

Here's why the other answers are incorrect:

A) "Photography and the telegraph brought some technological advances" in comparison to the previous wars, so A is incorrect. Intelligence was, for the most part, gathered in the same ways it had been previously, but these new technologies were still utilized.

B) Photograph and the telegraph are mentioned, but they are not the main point of the paragraph. Basically, "although the use of photography and the telegraph brought some technological advances," this fact is only being mentioned in the paragraph to emphasize the minimal progress of "the means of obtaining military intelligence," as intelligence was often still "gathered in simple ways" only. Armies "still relied on fieldwork." So B is incorrect.

D) Option D only refers to one source of information in the paragraph, "runaway slaves;" it does not fully or efficiently summarize the paragraph.

In My Bondage and My Freedom by Frederick Douglass, which adjective best characterizes the Aulds’ home during his early childhoo
amm1812

The question above is incomplete, the options attached to the question are given below:

A. Contended

B. Demanding

C. Harsh

D. Hectic


ANSWER

The correct option is A.

Douglass was a slave, who had experienced the harsh reality of been a slave. He has been moved around a lot, from one master to another master; and one of the masters he served were Mr and Mrs Auld. His condition as a slave improved a little bit when he first got to the home of the Auld's. Mrs Auld has never had a slave before so she was excited to have one and did not really know how slaves were treated by other white people. So she treated Douglass not as a slave but as a human being and even went to the extent of teaching him how to read and write. But all that stopped, when Mr Auld find out that his wife has been teaching Douglass how to read and write.

Federigo's Falcon" contains very little dialogue. How does the little dialogue there is build up the tone and mood of the story?
tester [92]

Answer:

The small dialogue existing in this work builds the tone of love at the same time that it manages to create a mood of sacrifice that gets to be sad and disappointing in certain moments, but that shows that loving involves renunciations and sacrifices.

Explanation:

The few dialogues that appear in the text reflect how Federigo sacrifices himself for the happiness of his beloved, without charging her anything, even if she loves him back. He feels good about suffering and being sad, losing his most precious possessions, like his hawk, if he can provide him with happiness. In dialogues, he always shows solicitude, which creates a tone of love, since everything he does is governed by love, and a mood of sacrifice, resignation and loss in the text.
