How does Helen act as a foil to Jane

English
1 answer:
algol [13]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:Helen and Jane become fast friends after they meet on the orphanage playground.  Helen is a foil to Jane. Helen acts as a dramatic foil.  A foil is a character that has opposing characteristics to highlight specific characteristics in another character. A foil is when two characters have high contrasting traits, which make those specifics characteristics stick out.  

Where Helen trusts in happiness and a home in her next life in Heaven and tolerates the suffering at Logwood, Jane needs that happiness to be lived now on this Earth. Where Helen is submissive, Jane is headstrong. Helen easily forgives, while Jane holds onto grudges for long periods of time. Helen is humble. Helen is meant to be a foil for Jane, and to be an example for Jane. In contrast to Helen's personality, Jane has the total opposite approach to life.  

Jane Eyre does not have the same faith as Helen; she has trouble believing in a God, she's never seen and seeks to find happiness on earth.

What element of an argument is displayed in the section with the bulleted list? What rhetorical appeal is used? Cite text eviden
strojnjashka [21]

Hello. You did not say what text this question refers to, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered efficiently and specifically. However, to try to help you, I will show you what an argument is and how are the rhetorical appeals that can be used in one. This can guide you in finding the correct answer.

An argument is a position on a theme, where the author demonstrates what he thinks about something or how he understands how such things happen. In addition to presenting a position, the argument presents evidence that provides veracity to the position, showing how it is real and relevant.

To enhance the argument and make it more powerful, rhetorical appeals can be used. These appeals are ethos (which refers to ethics), logos (which refers to logic) and pathos (which refers to emotions and feelings), which are used in sentences to strengthen an important point of the argument and to converge the audience.
