Answer:
The final lines of the poem rightly reassert the importance of community and how no man can be left alone to survive on his own, away from other humans.
Explanation:
In his poem "No Man is an Island", metaphysical poet John Donne talks of the importance of a community/ social interaction for humans to be sane and civilized. No man living alone and away from other humans can survive on his own, irrespective of what may have been presumed.
The lines 8-9 of the poem reads <em>"And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee"</em><em>,</em> which perfectly presents his point home by generalizing the death toll that is ringing for anyone. It could be for you or for me, but that's the uncertainty of life, for we know not when we will all die, but we will die one day, that is a certain fact. Being part of a society or among people is needed for a man to thrive and survive. And one day, the bells will toll for thee. These final lines perfectly resonate the important theme of how man is a social being, and not to be left alone/ living alone. These two lines reassert the importance of man's social dependency on others, his inability to be self sufficient and his need to be in the company of others.
It would say that this sentence presents two examples of personification.
By personification, we understand that "<span>the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form"
In this quote Time is capitalized that is why it can be considered a personification of time, it is taken as a subject. And on the other hand, the bridge is related to the verb "sweep" which is applied to people.</span>
<span>The contemporary issue dealt with in Aiken's adaptation of Uncle Tom's Cabin was (slavery)</span>
Personification.
hope this helps :)
Hello. You did not show the poem to which this question refers. Thus, it is not possible to read the poem and analyze the development of the theme. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
In a poem the themes are developed through the use of literary devices. The most common is that this theme is presented through the rhyme or other sound devices, since these devices highlight a specific element of the text, usually the theme. However, symbolism is also used to represent concepts that emphasize the theme of the poem.
