How does Tolstoy set up Gerasim to be a foil to Praskovya Fedorovna in these two excerpts from The Death of Ivan Ilyich? Gerasim

alone did not lie; everything showed that he alone understood the facts of the case and did not consider it necessary to disguise them, but simply felt sorry for his emaciated and enfeebled master. Once when Ivan Ilyich was sending him away he even said straight out: "We shall all of us die, so why should I grudge a little trouble?"—expressing the fact that he did not think his work burdensome, because he was doing it for a dying man and hoped someone would do the same for him when his time came. . . . When the examination was over the doctor looked at his watch, and then Praskovya Fedorovna announced to Ivan Ilyich that it was of course as he pleased, but she had sent today for a celebrated specialist who would examine him and have a consultation with Michael Danilovich (their regular doctor). "Please don't raise any objections. I am doing this for my own sake," she said ironically, letting it be felt that she was doing it all for his sake and only said this to leave him no right to refuse. He remained silent, knitting his brows. He felt that he was surrounded and involved in a mesh of falsity that it was hard to unravel anything.

The humanists of the Renaissance were concerned with a question that would you answer this same question ? What's the good life
maw [93]

<u>Explanation</u>:

The idea that becoming rich defines whether we have a good life is not true; becomes often times the <u>happiness one gets from things they owned is short-lived.</u>

For many today including me, our definition of a <u>good life</u> has <em>changed </em>as a result of our experiences in life. Simply knowing you are loved and have loved ones makes many of us happy, and <u>there is this good feeling that sets in when you help others even in little ways.</u>

So in a sense, what we define as a good life is subjective (coming from within), and it<u> should be based on how we really feel on the inside, by asking; Do I feel good on the inside?</u>
