The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is considered an example of American mythology. Which statement best summarizes how the passage's ce
Allushta [10]

In spite of the fact that "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is a carefree story, told in an amusing way, it doesn't paint a very meaningful picture of humankind—it does not. "Instant kind perspective of human instinct" as Crayon says he wants to do in his composition. This is especially valid in the wild greed seen in a large portion of the characters.  

One of the main things we find out about Ichabod Crane is that he is an "immense feeder," with " the dilating energy of an anaconda." Most clearly, Ichabod wants Katrina above all else for the expansion to his material riches she already has, and he even envisions himself auctioning off her family-farm for cash. Notwithstanding when Ichabod demonstrates his better qualities, assisting around the home he dwells in and keeping the youngsters and spouses at ease, his essential objective in behaving as such is to keep his mass content with the goal that they will give him a food and home.  

This person needs everything—the bling, the young lady, the pancake—and his eyes reflect his intentions. Irving truly works his funny cut in "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," transforming Ichabod's gluttony into a distorted heap of craziness. In any case, our creator sticks to one regular tradition that greediness isn't great.

The portrayal of these characters, their introductions, and their manner of behavior in the story explicitly states the central theme of avarice.

However, there are other cases that highlight more than greed or narrow-mindedness. For example, Katrina utilizes Ichabod to anchor Brom's love - she may understand Ichabod's actual thoughts, yet -it can't be denied that she doesn't delay to make the most of him and went with her motivations. This narrow-mindedness, or possibly narcissism, isn't restricted to a couple of characters. This turns out to be clear when Ichabod vanishes and an inquiry party is made, because Hans Van Ripper needs the missing saddleback, and when there is no indication of Ichabod, no one wants to think about it. To conclude, Sleepy Hollow is a gathering of individuals who, as in many spots, put themselves first.
