Maman-Nainaine understood that it was going to take time for the figs to ripen because “that is the way Maman-Nainaine was.” (11) She understood the concept of time because that’s how they timed their lives. She knew these things because they didn’t have electricity. They had to know the precise time to plant and harvest their crops. They used the changing seasons as a time line. Kate Chopin helps her readers understand Maman-Nainaine better because of her age.
These things are, “All Nature seems at work”, it says things such as birds and bees, and also states that “a dream of Spring” which spring is the season of new life. In the novel nature controls just about everything that they do. For example if a drought comes to their land they are forced to scrounge for food, because the land is not fertile. Finally, in the novel Rukmani and also her daughter faced troubles with their fertility. They had to wait to conceive a child.
In the Cherry Orchard, by Anton Chekhov, there exists much to be seen from Chekhov’s use of symbols in the work. The symbolism is evident in several different things from the work such as the big one, the cherry orchard, and some smaller ones such as the transfer in the ownership of the cherry orchard. "We don't see things as they are. We see them as we are." This quote by Anais Nin expresses an essential point of view for this discussion about the symbolic meaning of inanimate objects, since it is our personality and our memories, which determine our character and meaning.
The flowers on buckwheat have made the crop a good nectar source for honey bee keepers. Plant height and speed of maturity depend on planting date. If planted early in the summer, and given good fertility, plants will usually be at least one metre tall, and may take 11 to 12 weeks to mature. If planted in the latter part of summer, buckwheat will mature in about 9 to 10 weeks, and will be shorter, about 30 inches on good soils and 24 inches tall or less on poor soils. A hot, dry period during plant development will limit the size of the crop.
The small pot is representative of their constricted lifestyle. Much like when a plant is placed in a small pot it is crippled and unable to grow large, the Younger family is being held back by the environment they are growing in. When Ruth announces that she is pregnant, one of Beneatha’s first responses is “where is he going to live, on the roof?” (58). Ruth realizes that her family has no way to provide for a new baby and she considers having the baby aborted instead of raising it. By having an abortion, she would be restricting the growth of their family because of their small space to live in.

In this context, a two-step methodology seems emerged: 1. To cluster and to classify new products to forecast their sales profile (mid-term forecast). 2. To adapt and to readjust this profile according to the first weeks of sales (short term forecast). If no historical data exists for the considered item, but similar products have already been sold in previous seasons.
Elisa perks up for a moment and makes a suggestion that she could accomplish working out in the orchards, only to have Henry shut her down by saying “well it sure works with the flowers”. I believe Steinbeck uses Henry’s rejection of her work in this conversation to illustrate the way society has rejected women as nothing more than mothers and housekeepers. Elisa’s garden is surrounded by a wire fence, which would suggest to the reader, Elisa’s isolation not only from her husband, but also from the rest of world. When the tinker enters the story, Elisa’s initial reaction towards him is non-engaging, almost irritated. The tinker being an opportunist sees the flowers as a way to make a sale.
22 October 2013 Why Can’t People Feed Themselves? In the article by Frances Moore Lappé and Joseph Collins, both authors point to Colonialism as the main reason why people cannot feed themselves anymore. Prior to European intervention in third world agriculture, many of these countries thrived on their land, producing crops not for sale, but for consumption. They looked to diversify their crops and to introduce new crops of Asian or even American origin that could also be grown for consumption. However, many European countries viewed these lesser colonies as “primitive and backward.” Why can’t people feed themselves?
The story depicts the cultural barrier that haiku creates between Tome, Rosie, and Mr. Hayashi. The tale unravels the destruction of a woman who creates independently. Ume Hanazono is the name Tome takes on when writing for the Mainichi Shinbun. Ume means an exquisite flowering tree which blossoms in early spring and bears fruit by the end of spring and Hanazono means “flowering garden.” However, her name Tome means good fortune or luck, her last name Hayashi means woods. Mistri shows how the motif of three is a big part of “Seventeen Syllables”.
