"The Prisoners" was written by Guy De Maupassant, and Berthine's role in the story is the daughter and a wife of a forester who is home alone with her mother, since her husband is serving the French Army and her father is in town drilling with the local militia. Her character is strong and is not afraid. She represents an example of courage, patriotism and quick wits. Hope this answer helps. #brainlyzkool
