What is a postmodernist work more likely to have than a modernist work?a. a consistent rhyme scheme with repeating syllables
b. a more playful attitude
c. an explanation of social problems
d. greater length and more detail

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A postmodernist work is more likely to have B. a more playful attitude than a modernist work. This is because most of the modernist works revolved around the WWI, which was a dark and tragic time, and postmodernism started after the wars, so those were not a dominant topic of their literature. Thus, the authors could experiment more with the genre, be more playful, all the while still talking about serious topics, usually in a cynical and surreal way.
Answer 2
Answer: B. a more playful attitude

Rape is forced sexual acts even if the person says no.

Symbols help readers understand the larger themes of a story. One of the major themes of Joyce’s “Araby” is the urge to escape the monotony of daily life. Which symbol in the story contributes most to this theme, and why

Answers

Araby is a great story! I just read it recently for class too. I believe that the bazaar the narrator attends is the best symbol for escaping monotony. The bazaar symbolizes everything exotic and unfamiliar to the narrator, who is experiencing a rather mundane and dreary life. He idealizes it and looks forward to going. However, when he finally gets there, he realizes that it is not all he thought it would be, which ultimately depresses him because it seems that life will never stop being monotonous. I hope this helps!
