What misunderstandings or inaccuracies involving Gothic literature or Poe's use of suspense do you see? How would you suggest eliminating this problem? If necessary, cross out some words within the text of the essay.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Although "the black cat", like all of Poe's works, is a great example of Gothic literature, we can find some misunderstandings or inaccuracies that may give the wrong impression about this genre of literature.

One of these misunderstandings is the fact that Gothic literature deals only with mental and personal problems of the protagonists. That's because in Poe's work, the protagonist's problems and discomforts are totally related to his mental imbalance, but Gothic literature can open up external problems, which are not, in fact, caused by psychological problems or imbalances of the characters.

Another misunderstanding is predictability. In Poe's work, horror is a strong element, but suspense is a weak element since we know that the character will decay more and more with the passage of the narrative, which weakens the suspense and can generalize it.

One example of how the writer misunderstands Poe’s use of suspense is stated in the conclusion paragraph. “Personally, I think its strange that people lump Gothic stories into one category. If you know something is Gothic; you know it is going to be suspenseful, which reduces suspense because you know suspense is coming.” This sentence the author used doesn’t stay with the main point and doesn’t support anything they said in the past.  

To fix this problem, I’d delete those two sentences, and rephrase the next sentence in such a way there’s a smooth transition from the last paragraph. So, instead of using this sentence they already had down, “Even so, Poe creates allot of suspense in the story by using more complex tools and narrative choices then just setting the story on a stormy night in a haunted house or medieval castle.” I’d say something along the lines of, “Poe creates suspense in the story by using more complex tools and narrative choices than just setting the story on a stormy night in a haunted house or medieval castle.”

Shadowshaper characters archetypes

Answers

Answer:

Generally speaking, the characters in "Shadowshaper" are teenagers, or the family of the protagonist of the story, Sierra Santiago. This is a family of Latin descent and as such they have the archetype of union and family complicity.

Teenage characters, including Sierra herself, have the archetype of characters who are trying to find their place in the world, presenting unusual hobbies and carrying a great responsibility with the family and their powers, as teenagers are usually portraits in novels of urban fantasy, like "Shadowshaper."

Explanation:

Archetypes are common behaviors and characteristics that a specific type of character presents, in any work. "Shadowshaper," for example, presents the archetype of an unpopular teenager, who likes alternative things and who has a great responsibility in ridding the world of a great supernatural threat.

Select the two correct answers.


"'To think it will soon be June!' grumbled Bilbo, as he splashed along behind the others in a very muddy track. It was after tea-time; it was pouring with rain, and had been all day; his hood was dripping into his eyes, his cloak was full of water; the pony was tired and stumbled on stones; the others were too grumpy to talk. 'And I’m sure the rain has got into the dry clothes and into the food-bags,” thought Bilbo. 'Bother burgling and everything to do with it!'"

"'What I say,' said Bilbo gasping. 'And please don’t cook me, kind sirs! I am a good cook myself, and cook better than I cook, if you see what I mean. I’ll cook beautifully for you, a perfectly beautiful breakfast for you, if only you won’t have me for supper.'

'Poor little blighter,' said William. He had already had as much supper as he could hold; also he had had lots of beer. 'Poor little blighter! Let him go!'


"'My dear fellow,' said he, 'whenever are you going to come? What about an early start?--and here you are, having breakfast, or whatever you call it, at half past ten! They left you the message, because they could not wait.'

'What message?' said poor Mr. Baggins all in a fluster.


"The washing-up was so dismally real that Bilbo was forced to believe the party of the night before had not been part of his bad dreams, as he had rather hoped. Indeed he was really relieved after all to think that they had all gone without him, and without bothering to wake him up ('but with never a thank-you' he thought)..."

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”


Then I saw the dead god. He was sitting in his chair, by the window, in a room I had not entered before and, for the first moment, I thought that he was alive. Then I saw the skin on the back of his hand—it was like dry leather. The room was shut, hot and dry—no doubt that had kept him as he was. At first, I was afraid to approach him—then the fear left me. He was sitting looking out over the city—he was dressed in the clothes of the gods. His age was neither young nor old—I could not tell his age. But there was wisdom in his face and great sadness. You could see that he would have not run away. He had sat at his window, watching his city die—then he himself had died. But it is better to lose one's life than one's spirit—and you could see from the face that his spirit had not been lost. I knew, that, if I touched him, he would fall into dust—and yet, there was something unconquered in the face.

No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But

my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.
I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of Judging of the future but by the past.
And judging by the past, I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last ten years to justify those hopes
with which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves and the House, Is it that Insidious smile with which our petition has been lately
recelved? Trust it not, sir, it will prove a snare to your feet.
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-but there is no peace. The war is actually begunt The next gale that

What is meant by Health economics?

A subfield of economics called health economics studies how people behave when it comes to producing and using health care and other services. Through interactions between people, healthcare providers, and clinical environments, health economics can help determine ways to enhance health outcomes and lifestyle habits.

In general, health economists look at how healthcare systems work and how certain behaviors like smoking, diabetes, and obesity affect people's health.

The fact that healthcare economics does not adhere to conventional economic laws is one of the main challenges. With the third-party payer system used by insurance companies and businesses, Price and Quality are frequently disguised. However, QALY (Quality Adjusted Life Years), one of the most popular metrics for therapies, is extremely challenging to assess and is predicated on assumptions.
