Describe how revolutionary-era literature differed from the literature produced by the puritans

Answers

The Puritans generally wrote about religion, their experiences with other religions, and some other things, while revolutionary- era literature was more about freedom and opportunity.


Explanation:

Revolution literature spun more about reaching understanding ideas (such as human rights, government power, etc.). Puritan literature was intended to make people (religious or not) open their eyes to the world of crime and to deliver God more relevant in your normal life and make God more comprehensible.
The Puritans generally wrote about religion, their experiences with other religions, and some other things, while revolutionary- era literature was more about freedom and opportunity.

As a consequence, the city of Rome does not have a leader or ruler anymore, which alarms and disconcerts citizens. Finally, the Caesar's conspirators and allies fight for the command of the city.

Urban legends are our modern-day folklore. Describe a cautionary urban legend that you have heard and describe what it was supposed to caution you against. When faced with a similar situation, did the urban legend influence your decision?

Answers

Possibly one of the oldest urban legends still being told the story tells of a motorist who picks up a female hitchhiker on a lonely stretch of road. He then drives her home only to find that she has disappeared from his backseat. After knocking on her door he is told the girl died in a car accident years ago in the very same spot that he picked her up. 

Answer:

There was a story I used to read where a woman had her hands and feet dangling off the bed while she was asleep in her bedroom with her door shut. She woke up in the middle of the night to her dog licking her hand and dozed back off. She then woke up in the morning to find her dog scratching on her door trying to be let in. The dog wasn't in her room all night, he was shut out. This scared me as a kid because that meant something else was under her bed licking her hand. This influenced me to keep all my limbs on my bed at all times, and sometimes I would even keep them all tucked away under my blankets to be extra safe.
