"That's what literature is. It's the people who went before us, tapping out messages from the past, from beyond the grave, trying to tell us about life and death! Listen to them!" This quote poignantly captures the idea that literature is not just a collection of words on a page, but a message from the past, a means of communication between generations. Literature is a medium through which the human experience is preserved, and through which we can gain insight and understanding into the lives and thoughts of those who came before us.
The quote serves as a reminder that literature is a valuable tool for learning about history, culture, and the human experience. It's also a call to action, urging readers to pay attention to the messages that literature conveys. Through literature, readers can gain a better understanding of the world and the people in it.
One example of a literary work that exemplifies this idea is the classic novel "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen. Through her characters, Austen conveys messages about societal expectations, the role of women, and the human tendency to make judgments based on appearance. By reading the novel, readers can gain insight into the culture and social norms of 19th century England, and make connections to the society in which they live.
Another example of literature that taps out messages from the past is the famous epic poem "The Odyssey" by Homer. This work, written over 2,800 years ago, details the story of a Greek hero, Odysseus and his journey home after the Trojan War. Through this story, readers can learn about the society and values of ancient Greece, as well as themes such as loyalty, perseverance, and the power of storytelling.
In conclusion, this quote is a call to readers to approach literature as a means of communication from the past, a way to learn about the lives and thoughts of people who have come before us. Literature is not just a collection of words on a page, but a medium through which we can gain insight and understanding into the human experience. Through literary works like "Pride and Prejudice" and "The Odyssey," readers can access messages and meaning that have been passed down through time, and in the process, gain a deeper understanding of the world and the people in it.

C. My father and a strange woman were sitting before a bright fire that blazed in a grate. My mother and I were standing about six feet away, as though we were afraid to approach them any closer.

the first paragraph?
Denbys second paragraph
Answer:
For Dendy, the female villain is based on aggressive speech, while the male villain is based on aggressive actions.
Explanation:
Dendy describes the female villains in aggressive lines, which aims to demoralize and provoke bad feelings through words. Although these villains care about how they look and how individuals perceive them, acts of villainy are based mainly on words, with a lot of sarcasm and demoralization.
On the other hand, male routes focus on violent actions, promoting more physical acts and with more visible, impacting effects that can disturb more than one person.

what are the resources needed when you start a project in school of gbv
When starting a project on Gender-Based Violence (GBV) in school, several resources are essential to ensure the project's success. These resources can include: Informational Resources, Human Resources, Data and Statistics, Stakeholder Engagement, Technology and Multimedia, Funding and Budget.
Informational Resources: Access to accurate and up-to-date information on GBV is crucial. This can be obtained through books, articles, research papers, online resources, and reputable organizations working in the field of gender equality and GBV prevention. These resources help students gain a comprehensive understanding of the issue and provide a basis for their project.
Human Resources: Collaborating with individuals who have expertise in GBV, such as teachers, school counselors, social workers, or representatives from local organizations, can provide valuable guidance and support. These individuals can offer insights into effective project approaches, share their experiences, and provide mentorship to students.
Data and Statistics: Reliable data and statistics on GBV are important to understand the prevalence, patterns, and impact of violence. Students can gather data from reputable sources like government reports, surveys, or studies conducted by relevant organizations. This information helps in analyzing the issue, identifying trends, and formulating evidence-based strategies.
Stakeholder Engagement: Involving stakeholders is crucial for a comprehensive approach to addressing GBV. Engaging with local community leaders, NGOs, law enforcement agencies, healthcare providers, and survivors' support groups can provide students with valuable perspectives, collaboration opportunities, and access to resources like guest speakers, workshops, or field visits.
Technology and Multimedia: Utilizing technology, such as computers, internet access, audiovisual equipment, and presentation tools, allows students to enhance their project's quality and reach. They can create videos, multimedia presentations, or online platforms to raise awareness about GBV, share their findings, and advocate for change.
Funding and Budget: Depending on the scope of the project, securing funding or budget allocation may be necessary to cover expenses related to research materials, transportation, printing, events, or workshops. Students can explore grants, sponsorships, or crowdfunding platforms to support their initiatives.
It is important to note that the specific resources required for a GBV project may vary based on the project's objectives, scope, and available support systems within the school or local community. Students should also consider ethical considerations and prioritize the well-being and safety of individuals involved in their project
