Charles Dickens became well-known for consistently utilizing what theme throughout his writings?
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The theme of good people coping with bad circumstances

Explanation:

<u>The theme of bad people prevailing over good people</u> – this is not the right answer. Dickens’ novels do have the endings when good people end happily.

<u>The theme of rigid adherence to social norms and patterns </u>– this is not the correct answer. Some of Dickens's characters went extremely against the norms of society.

<u>The theme of societal improvement through charitable works </u>– this is not the right answer. Dickens's work did not deal much with the subject of charitable work.

<u>The theme of good people coping with bad circumstances – this is the correct answer. Many of Dickens’ works dealt with good people who found themselves in unfortunate circumstances and had to fight hard for a better life.</u> <em>David Copperfield</em> follows the life of a man from childhood, as he goes through ups and downs when both of his parents die, and he is sent to a strict boarding school. In <em>Great Expectations</em>, both protagonist, Pip, and his love, Estella, live in the lamentable circumstances and have to fight through life. In the novel <em>Oliver Twist</em>, the protagonist of the same name is also an orphan who lives difficult life and meets people who use him; other characters in the novel, for example, Nancy, are described as nice people who had hard life shaped by bad experiences.

I need to write a medium size discussion about the Racism and Prejudice that happened from chapter 17 to 22 in the Indian horse.
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

In Indian Horse, Saul Indian Horse experiences many different forms and degrees of racial prejudice. There’s the racism implicit in his being kidnapped, sent to St. Jerome’s, and forbidden from speaking his own native tongue—i.e., the suggestion that his entire society is inferior to white Canadian society. Then there’s the condescending racism of sports journalists who call him a “crazy redskin” and other belittling terms, even when they’re praising his prowess. Saul experiences a huge amount of direct, verbal racism from white peers and sports opponents, who never miss an opportunity to call him names. And finally, he experiences his share of direct violence from racist whites who try to beat him into submission. All these behaviors stem from the fact that Saul is an Indigenous Canadian living in a country run by white people, many of whom believe that Saul is inherently inferior because of his race. This racism seems to spring from an irrational need on the part of white Canadians to prove that Indigenous Canadians are inferior to them. During Saul’s time at St. Jerome’s Christian school, he’s beaten and abused by the racist white teachers. These teachers regularly tell Saul and his classmates that their indigenous culture is inferior to white Canadian culture. Of course, the indigenous students are not, in fact, inferior to whites, and so the teachers use violence to force them into submission. In a similar sense, most of the white Canadians who hit and bully Saul are motivated by their own failures. Saul is a talented hockey player who regularly defeats his bigger, more privileged white opponents. After particularly humiliating defeats, white hockey players or racist townspeople take out their anger on Saul and his Indigenous Canadian teammates. In other words, Saul is evidently better than they are at hockey, which is an important sport in Canada, and a traditionally European sport, which makes Saul’s success even more humiliating for them. As a result, Saul’s white opponents try to compensate by asserting their power in other ways. The cumulative effect of years of racism and prejudice on Saul is almost incalculable. But it’s clear that racism ruins some of his potential in life by leaving him angry and frustrated. For a time, Saul is able to ignore the racism of his teachers and hockey opponents. But eventually, their cruelty proves too overwhelming for him, and he gives in to the (very understandable) temptation to fight back. The result is that Saul grows into an aggressive and embittered man—so much so that he’s kicked out of the NHL in spite of his enormous talent as a hockey player. The central tragedy of the book is that racism, in all its forms and degrees, crushes Saul’s spirit and turns what could have been a brilliant athletic career into years of fighting, soul-searching, and drinking.
