In this task you will be given a text passage from a trivia quiz. You should choose the category this question belongs to from these categories: History, Science, Social Science, Fine Arts, Literature. You can only choose one category, so if in doubt, please choose the closest match.

[Q]: The speaker of one work by this author observes the "little promontory" on which the titular creature stood. In one of his works, a boy is brought to tears by the "he-birds" calls for his lost mate, and repeatedly makes out the word "death" from the rustling of the ocean. The speaker of another of his poems declares that he sees the "clouds of the west" and the "flood tide below [him]" face to face, while the speaker of his most famous work states that "what [he] assumes, you shall assume" after proclaiming that he celebrates himself. For 10 points, name this American poet whose poems "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry" and "Song of Myself" appear in Leaves of Grass.
[A]: Literature


[Q]: Lindstrom's theorem states that first-order logic is the strongest logic having both this property and satisfying the Lowenheim-Skolem property. A method for finding a Hausdorff space with this property containing a given space is named for Stone and Cech. Equicontinuity is the main condition for determining whether a family of functions has this property by the Arzela-Ascoli theorem. Using the axiom of choice, it can be shown that an arbitrary product of spaces with this property has this property, a result known as Tychonoff's theorem. In Euclidean space, being closed and bounded is sufficient to show, according to the Heine-Borel theorem, that a set has this property. For 10 points, identify this property which holds of a set on which every open cover has a finite subcover.
[A]: Science


[Q]: A viscous fluid and an elastic spring connected in series characterizes this scientist's namesake model of viscoelasticity. Equating the second mixed partial derivatives of each of the four thermodynamic potentials is the derivation of the set of fundamental thermodynamic equations named for this scientist. This scientist proposed a thought experiment in which high velocity (*) gas particles accumulate selectively on one side of a divided container, violating the 2nd law of thermodynamics. This man names another set of equations that can be used to derive the wave equation for an electromagnetic wave. For 10 points, Gauss's laws, Faraday's law, and Ampere's law are the 4 fundamental equations of electromagnetism named for what scientist, who also theorized a namesake "demon"
