When stanley screams stella's name at the end of
the scene. he is described as throwing back his head
lke a baying hound." what does this imagery suggest
about him?

cornelia

explanation:

we don't know all that much about cornelia aside from what granny tells us about her, along with what we can gather from her few lines of dialogue. it's hard to picture her, too, since we're not given any details about her mannerisms or what she looks like. she could be dressed like a circus clown, for all we know.

even though we wouldn't recognize cornelia if we ran into her on the street, we can't but feel a lot of sympathy for this character. first of all, she's super nice and granny pretty much treats her like dirt. she's constantly asking granny if she needs anything and granny usually responds by snapping at her. here's a typical exchange:

"i thought you might want something."

"i do. i want a lot of things. first off, go away and don't whisper." (14-15)

"birches" was written by the american poet robert frost. it was included in frost's third collection of poetry mountain interval. it was published in 1916. containing 59 lines, it is one of robert frost's most famous poems. as well as with other poems that deal with country landscape and wildlife, it represents frost as a naturalist writer.

for me, the most memorable literary image that frost uses in his poem is: “like girls on hands and knees that throw their hair before them over their heads to dry in the sun.” in this excerpt the author is comparing the trees to the beautiful image of girls drying their hairs to the sun and one cannot representing the image in our minds. this mental image is so strong due to the vivid description made in earlier lines of the poem where the author depicts the image of the snow set on the trees: “soon the sun's warmth makes them shed crystal shells shattering and avalanching on the snow-crust—such heaps of broken glass to sweep away you'd think the inner dome of heaven had fallen.” by so vividly describing the power that the winter climate has over the tree’s constitution, the author intends to define the magnificence of the birches (this kind of tree) as they withstand the power of the inclement nature. the author presents this image to us understand the very reason for the birches to be bent over, the main characteristic of the trees presented in the poem.
