Explanation:
Through many of the early chapters of Little Women, the March girls make reference to the allegorical Pilgrim’s Progress. Explain how one of the girls, or the family as a whole, relates to the characters and themes in Pilgrim’s Progress. Include details that indicate comparisons that Louisa May Alcott makes between Little Women and Pilgrim’s Progress.
Answer:
This book is prefaced by the novel The Pilgrim's Progress that is a symbol of how to live as a Christian. In this preface it is included the females character of the book, MERCY, no its male character, so it is a sign that this book is a guide for young girls, it is a guide to get the salvation and the self-improvement.
Alcott wants to emphasize that religion is more important that everyday details of life. The four March sisters have to follow saintly feet and have a spiritual journey through their lives, in spite their situation as "little tripping maids".
"Tell them of Mercy; she is one
Who early hath her pilgrimage begun.
Yea, let young damsels learn of her to prize
The world which is to come, and so be wise;
For little tripping maids may follow God
Along the ways which saintly feet have trod."

Answer:
The man fails to understand the importance of the sun, as it symbolizes life and a source of warmth. The fact that he had not a hint of fear was worrisome.
Having imagination would have helped the man think and predict the consequences of his actions.
His spittle freezes in the air, he loses sensation in his fingers, steps in a pool of water, gets his feet wet, and drops a match in the snow, after toppling snow on his meager fire by pulling on tree branches.
The man shows a disregard for his dog's safety by pushing him to walk over thin ice and by attempting to kill him so he could crawl into its carcass and survive the night.
A civilized man has become goal-oriented, egocentric, and uncaring and as such has put his ability to survive in peril.
why is this poem the biggest piece of junk on the planet it makes no sense
The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

What is the main idea of the short story the Convict and the Bisiop
will give brain crown NO FAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(
Answer:
At the beginning of October 1815, a disreputable-looking traveler enters Digne on foot. In spite of his money, he is repeatedly refused food and shelter for the night with harsh words and threats. A fierce hound routs him from a doghouse when he mistakes it for a worker's hut. Despairingly he sums up his plight with the pathetic cry, "I am not even a dog!"
On the advice of a kind passerby, he tries the door of Monseigneur Myriel. He bluntly introduces himself as Jean Valjean, an ex-convict recently released from prison. To his surprise, the bishop welcomes him warmly, inviting him to share his supper, giving him advice, and finally offering him a bed for the night. Even more remarkable, he treats Valjean with unfailing courtesy and ignores the stigma of his past.
Valjean's past is a tragic story. Originally a primitive but uncorrupted creature, when he was twenty-six years old he was condemned to a five-year jail term for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his widowed sister and her large family. Repeated attempts to escape lengthened his sentence to nineteen years. In jail, the merciless treatment he endured corrupted his fundamental potentialities for good into an implacable hatred for society. The continuous hostility he has encountered since his release has only confirmed this hatred.
The bishop's kindness moves Valjean profoundly but does not regenerate him. Rising stealthily in the middle of the night, the ex-convict steals his host's silver from a cupboard above the sleeping man's
head — indeed, he is prepared to kill the bishop if he wakes. The police, however, catch him when he is making his escape and bring him back to the bishop. This time his crime will bring him life imprisonment. However, Monseigneur Myriel pretends that the silverware is a legitimate gift and in a gesture of supreme kindness even adds his candlesticks to it — the only objects of value he has left. As Jean Valjean is leaving, he exacts his reward: "Don't forget," he tells the astonished man, "that you promised me to use this silver to become an honest man."
Still Jean Valjean's conversion is not complete. On a deserted road, he steals a coin from an itinerant chimney sweep, Little Gervais. But this last contemptible act sickens him of himself, and in a paroxysm of remorse he resolves to amend his life.

why a book or movie without any conflict
or anything at stake wouldn't work.
A book or movie without any conflict or anything at stake wouldn't work, because without these things, the book or the movie will become boring and the audience will lose interest in it.
What is a conflict?In a story, the conflict can be external or internal, or it can be a combination of both external and internal. In any story, the primary conflict is when it is typically what drives action towards the story's climax.
The external conflict is between characters and other characters or characters and their environment, and the internal is a struggle within. Thus, conflict is necessary to keep the interest of the audience or reader.
Therefore, without any conflict or anything at stake, a book or movie will be boring.
