Mark Twain most likely created the character of Henry Adams as an American living in England to better compare and contrast American and British social tendencies.

Twain uses the stories of Henry Adams to show that <em>Americans need to be honest, patient, self-disciplined, and witty</em>. This story is no exception. Henry needs to be intelligent to obtain things just for having a milloin pound bank note, and he need self-discipline to not over spend the money that people lend him so that he can ultimately repay it.

The answer is<em> in order to better compare and contrast American and British banking system.</em>

The story takes place in Victorian London, where Henry Adams, the story's main character and also the hero-storyteller has wound up poor and in clothes after a drifting mishap in the U.S cleared him out to to ocean. Shortly after, two extremely rich siblings spot him and give him an envelope with no data. Seeing the cash inside the envelope Henry promptly sets out toward a shabby eating house and he hauls the cash out of the envelope after he eats.

<u>Throughout the story the author uses the main character's nationality and the mishaps he encounters in the UK to make a clear statement towards the banking industry in both countries.</u>


Hope this helps!!

telo118 [61]

Your questions is not so clear, but I will try to answer it as I understand it.

I am a native Spanish speaker so you can trust my answer, if there is a problem with it, it is due the missing information in the question, but I think we can work it out for the best.

In Spanish when you want to make any negative setence in any tense we do not use an auxliliary verb as you do in English, we simply add the word:

No before the verb, for example in:

Yo no <u>quería</u> bailar en la fiesta. (I didn´t <u>wan</u>t to dance at the party)

Mi hermana no <u>piensa</u> antes de hablar. (My sister doesn't <u>think</u> before talking)

No me <u>hables</u>, no <u>quiero</u> nada. (Don't <u>talk</u> to me, I <u>want</u> nothing)

In Spanish we Simply use the Negative Adverb:

No

I believe the theme of Antigone that the above events reflect is the path of morality versus the path of civil law and order.
She felt the need to give her brother a proper burial, regardless of the laws Creon may have imposed on the citizens.
