Symbolists like Rimbaud wrote poetry based on which of the following? (4 points) Creating impressions rather than expressing realism Creating tension by focusing on fictional characters Developing traditional ideas rather than modern ones Focusing on realistic descriptions of daily life

Answers

The answer is: creating impressions rather than expressing realism.

Symbolist poets tried to express an ideal or a truth in a symbolic, tangible and fluid way. They used metaphors and free verse to do so and tried to mix all five senses when describing something. That sort of confusion transformed reality into a unique experience, described in a colorful manner.

Art was seen as a refuge from real life and certain themes approaching mysticism were constantly used.

Answer:

Rimbaud est mon idole...

Explanation:

Je vis assis, tel qu'un ange aux mains d'un barbier,

Empoignant une chope à fortes cannelures,

L'hypogastre et le col cambrés, une Gambier

Aux dents, sous l'air gonflé d'impalpables voilures.

Tels que les excréments chauds d'un vieux colombier,

Mille Rêves en moi font de douces brûlures :

Puis par instants mon coeur triste est comme un aubier

Qu'ensanglante l'or jeune et sombre des coulures.

"that pile of dirty laundry is a science experiment and mother complained is a science experiment"this metopor or simile also what is the meaning

Answers

A simile can be found when using "like" or "as" between two things. Example: I'm as happy as a clown.

Your question would be a metaphor. Both things are being compared to a science expieriment, probably meaning that they need to have an outcome, but it isn't known for sure if it will be a good or bad outcome.

Things like this can be taken many ways, so if you think something else, I'm sure it would work as well.

Briefly compare and contrast the reactions of Hamlet, Laertes, and Fortinbras to the deaths of their fathers.

Answers

Answer:

Hamlet's Reaction:

Hamlet mourns deeply for his father when he gets to about his father's death from Claudius. He decides to fake madness for revenge, and wearing that mask, he calmly analyzes every detail, every action he has to take for the revenge of his father. However, he starts to hesitate and comes to the conclusion that revenge is not a good option.

Laertes Reaction:
