Discuss how the narrator's initial feelings about the blind man and his treatment of the blind man reveal problems in his relati

Lynna [10]

Answer and Explanation:

Even though your question does not mention the book or story which it concerns, we may assume it is about the short story "Cathedral" by Raymond Carver, since the three characters in the story are the narrator, his wife, and her blind friend.

The narrator's initial feelings toward the blind man, Robert, are permeated with prejudice. He sees himself as superior simply because he can "see". He thinks of Robert as an incomplete man, a man who cannot be happy nor make a woman happy. He treats Robert as if his presence were an nuisance, as if a blind man were the worst company one could have. He also thinks it is an absurd for Robert to have a full beard and not wear dark sunglasses, just like a normal non-blind person.

We can quickly tell the one who truly has an impairment is the narrator himself. He certainly can see with his eyes; he is not physically blind. But he cannot go beyond that. He does not truly "see". Robert knows the narrator's wife much better than the narrator does. Robert sees more, because he listens, because he learns, because he is willing to not judge. The narrator's relationship with other people and even himself is one of appearances, shallow and judgmental.

In Act I, Scene iii of The Merchant of Venice, explain the stanza, " How like a fawning publican he looks! I hate him for he is a Christian; But more, for that in low simplicity ..... Which he calls...

In Act I, Scene iii of The Merchant of Venice, explain the stanza, " How like a fawning publican he looks! I hate him for he is a Christian;

One of the main contentious issues in The Merchant of Venice, is the hatred between Shylock and Antonio. Each treats the other contemptuously. In this scene, Shylock and Bassanio have just made an agreement for Antonio to obtain a loan and now they will meet to discuss the terms. Shylock, aside to the audience, makes it clear how he feels about him.

He is like "a fawning publican" a grovelling tax collector. Although a publican is traditionally someone who owns a bar or a tavern as it would have been called in those days, in ancient times a publican was the hated and much-aligned collector of taxes so Shylock is comparing Antonio to that. Shylock goes on to say "but more for that.." his contempt goes much further. "He is a Christian." He also lends money to others "gratis;" in other words, free of any charges or interest. The "rate of usance" is the rate at which money lenders are allowed to claim interest on the loans.
