Mama appears authentic in her narrative.
Explanation:
- There is much about Mama to admire. She is humble, caring, hard-working, and self-aware. She keeps her little farm going with the strength and determination that would put many men to shame. She has no illusions about herself or either of her daughters.
- Throughout the story, Maggie is described in less than flattering terms. Mama describes her as a “lame animal” who has no strong qualities.
- According to Mama, the best Maggie can hope for is to marry John Thomas. Mama’s limitations help shape her strengths, but she has trouble seeing beyond her front yard.
Answer:
The correct answer to the question: What seems to be the Wife of Bath´s attitude toward the importance of physical beauty, would be, D: She believed that beauty could grow out of accepting people for who they are.
Explanation:
The Wife of Bath´s Tale, is part of the Canterbury Tales and it was originally written by George Chaucer, in the 14th century. This tale, narrates the events that take place when a Knight from King Arthur´s court is condemned to death, but is given a reprieve by Queen Guinevere. In his quest for pardon, and at the end of the time given to him to find an answer to the question: What do women most desire, he finds himself before a group of 24 women, all beautiful, except for an old woman. She is the one who finally gives him a correct answer to the Queen´s question, and thus saves his life in exchange for his hand in marriage. The Knight is appalled, for she is old and ugly, and on their wedding night she challenges him to choose: a beautiful young wife of whom he will never be sure if she is faithful or not, or an old, ugly woman who will always be loyal. He gives her the choice, and in the end, she changes into the beautiful woman. This shows that to this woman, what she most desired was to be seen first, and accepted, for who she truly was, and not for her physical beauty. That is why the answer is D.
