In at least 250 words, explain the symbolism of the red geraniums in the Ewells' yard and how they relate to Mayella’s character.TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The flowers are a symbol of esteem and gentility. This is very telling because by keeping these flowers it shows that Mayella wants a more genteel, more pleasing lifestyle. The geraniums repersent that dream, her dream for something better in life, her dream of wanting something better for herself. This shows a lot about her character because it is showing that she strives to be better and she wants something in her life and now all that she has to do is go out and find what she is looking for. Make that dream become a reality and use those red geraniums as motivation; as a reminder to keep going and maybe everything will work out. 


Hope this helped :)

Why did Ezra Pound reduce "In a Station of the Metro" from 30 lines to two?

Answers

The lines are :

"The apparition of these faces in the crowd;

Petals on a wet, black bough."

The poem was first published in 1913 and it became a notable work of the Imagist tradition. Pound's reduction from thirty lines to only fourteen words characterizes Imagism's economy of language, precision and non-traditional verse form. Metro at La Concorde, in Paris was a center of inspiration for Ezra which filled him with intense emotion and revelation.

Ezra Pound reduced his poem "In a Station of the Metro" from 30 lines to two because he was a Modernest. He worked in extremes and either wrote minimalist works that consisted of two lines or he wrote epic works that consisted of hundreds of lines. He also refused to repeat himself throughout his career as a poet. The Modernism movement started at the beginning of the twentieth century. It broke away from traditional structures such as rhyme and meter. Modernism created free verse.
