How does Bierce's methodic writing style of providing detailed descriptions in a quiet, slow, suspenseful manner affect the reader? Provide examples (like how he describes the rifles in "support" position, or the sound of his own watch ticking).

Bierce uses the method to draw out a single moment in the life of the person to a long drawn introspection on life.

Explanation:

The Incident at Owl Creek Bridge by Bierce is one of the great short stories of all time.

It uses the last instant of a life of a solider who is sentenced to death for his introspection on life and his hope of escaping the ordeal.

This is drawn out in suspense by the methodical writing style of the writer who draws out the moment into a story that we start believing that he has actually escaped.

By the time the reality hits us the, he is already dead.

the first historical instance of china engaging in internationalism was during the han dynasty.[1] at the start of the han dynasty, the huns in the north were attacking the frontiers of han and trying to obtain riches. emperor wu of han wanted to gain an alliance with a country called dayuezhi so the two countries could join together and fight against the huns.[2] to obtain this alliance, emperor wu sent zhang qian to the west to establish economic and cultural connections.[2] history records that during the han dynasty there were four primary avenues of contact between china and europe. they included the northern land route, the central land route, the southern sea route, and the far southern sea route.[1] the most famous of these routes is the central land route, or the classical silk road, comprising a network of roads stretching from northwest china to the ports of syria and the black sea, which passed through the oasis of the turkestans and northern persia.[1] the silk road was significant for chinese emperors because it provided dominance over central asia by developing resources and provided new markets for the export of china's most valuable resources.[1]
