Personally, I don't think we'd be there at all if not for all of the oil. Self interest, that's what the government is concerned about. == ==
This is a difficult question, but I think it did not actually make any change to the status of Jews in America. (Obviously, as public awareness of the Holocaust grew, antisemitism became less acceptable).
The patricians were likely concerned about the plebeians selecting their own council because it threatened their political power and social dominance in Rome. This move indicated a shift towards greater representation for the lower classes, which could undermine the patricians' control over governance and decision-making. The formation of a plebeian council also suggested the potential for increased demands for rights and reforms, challenging the established social order. Ultimately, the patricians feared losing their privileged status and the stability of their authority.
No, at the time that WWII broke out she was one year old. So do the math. As far as her parents are concerned I'm not sure, but I don't think they were.
Rome's patricians were concerned when the plebeians elected their own council because it represented a significant shift in political power that could undermine their aristocratic control. The plebeian council, or Tribune of the Plebs, gave the lower class a voice in governance and the ability to challenge patrician authority, threatening the established social hierarchy. This development also raised fears of potential reforms that could lead to greater equity and the redistribution of power and resources among the citizenry. Ultimately, the patricians were worried about losing their privileged status and influence over Roman politics.
Mathilde Loisel acted and thought the way she did due to her dissatisfaction with her social status and material possessions. She was unhappy with her simple life and yearned for a more lavish and luxurious lifestyle. This discontentment drove her to make decisions that ultimately led to her downfall in "The Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant.
Mathilde Loisel's actions and thoughts were influenced by her desire for wealth and social status. She believed that material possessions and appearances were crucial to happiness and acceptance in society. The allure of the diamond necklace symbolized what she believed was missing from her life, driving her to make decisions that ultimately led to her downfall.
Mathilde Loisel acted and thought the way she did because she was unhappy with her social status and constantly compared herself to those with more wealth and privilege. She let her desire for material things and societal validation cloud her judgment and prevented her from appreciating the good things she had in her life. This led her to make choices that ultimately brought her more suffering and regrets.
Mathilde was miserable at the beginning of the story because Mathilde felt like her life wasn't as grand and wonderful as the rich people that surrounded her. She felt like she should be the one being gawked at and envied by all. She didn't appreciate the little things.
How does Mathilde Loisel's desire for wealth and social status affect her life? What role does the necklace play in the story's plot? How does the theme of deception and appearance versus reality manifest in the story? What is the significance of the story's ending and the revelation about the necklace?
The first thing that happened in the story "The Necklace" was that Mathilde kept on whining that she didn't have anything fancy and she wanted to be rich. But as in drama the first eventful thing that happened to Mathilde was that her husband got her a ticket to go to the fancy ball, which she also whined that she didn't have a fancy enough dress to go to the ball with. Hope that gives you your answer.
Madame Loisel in 'The Necklace' has been portrayed as a beautiful woman who is always longing to have fine and extravagant things. Her husband, Mister Loisel can not afford all her vain wants and so she doesn't think much of him. Even though they are not rich, they have a comfortable life, but Madame Loisel is not appreciative of it. She is full of complain and whines in want for more. Her greed is her weakness.
Yes Mme Loisel recognized good quality jewelry
I think Madame Loisel was very bipolar in the story. She was very selfish and she cared about the luxuries and finery jewelery. She wouldn't appreciate what she has and expected more. i think madame forestier was very unkind because she didnt give back the necklace to Loisel even after working off the debt for 10 years.
yes
is this right? Both Mathilde and her husband go nearly broke trying to replace the lost necklace. Mathilde's determination to pay off her debt does show heroism. She no longer longs for a life of riches. She understands that coveting things that she cannot have comes at a price. I think Mathilde becomes a little more humble and her husband supports his wife to the end.
False Not entirely. Mme. Loisel has the good quality that she is willing to live in poverty for ten years in order to replace the necklace she lost. Nevertheless, this good quality is only brought out by her bad qualities of vanity, pride, and dishonesty.
