What is The plot and themes Of the book “ the prisoners”

English
1 answer:
Finger [1]3 years ago
8 0

In this story, a young woman who is “daughter and wife of a forester” is home alone with her mother. The daughter’s wife is serving in the French army; the father is in town drilling with the local militia. This young woman is strong and unafraid. When half a dozen Germans show up demanding to be fed dinner, she tricks them into her cellar – once, apparently, an underground prison cell – until the local militia can come to take them into custody. The young woman is represented as a fine example of patriotism, courage, and quick wits; the French should be proud of her (and her father certainly is, although it is implied that the leader of the militia is happy to take credit for the capture). The militiamen, however, don’t get an uncritical treatment. I will leave this part spoiler-free, but an unfortunate and avoidable incident highlights that they are less competent than our daughter-and-wife.

Studying a counterclaim about morality and arriving at a broad generalization.

Answer: D

 

Explanation

Feldman came into the conclusion that the majority of people are straightforward without receiving any incentives.

This is through a claim by his people as well as the evidence.

A broad generalization may, therefore, lead to morality while finding the evidence.

Studying is a person’s desire and experience that leads towards the broad generalization.

Finally, the study of the counterclaim concerning morality brings about generalization.

It is due to o this argument therefore t that Feldman concluded above.
