In a divisive building, the outer form of the building is added to the plan first, then its interior is broken up into smaller spaces according to the needs of the program.

    Current logic holds that symmetry is beautiful because it suggests a relatively healthy childhood, free from diseases that could take their toll on facial features, causing subtle asymmetry diseases such as chicken pox, mumps, whooping cough or tonsillitis. Facial asymmetry in adolescents is in no way related to early childhood heath.

When he says, “ Could frame thy fearful symmetry?” instead of “Could frame your fearful symmetry” which shows diction because he tried to portray the readers of the tone threatening by using the word “fearful”, and he also…

One reason why the tiger is a…

    The poem "The Tyger" by William Blake is about confusion and reveals the natural human desire to be curious. The tone seems to be amusingly quizzical. The special use of literary devices adds to the speaker's curiosity, and demonstrates how the speaker's thoughts can range from absurd to profound. When the speaker asked, "What the hand, dare seize the fire?", it is amusing to view the speakers genuine interest in the creation of the tiger. That question stresses the passion that the speaker has…
