Answer:
Woolf's word choices that suggests that Oliver is preoccupied with how others see him is "looked down"
Below is an excerpt:
<em>"...And from the middle window he </em><em>looked down </em><em>upon the glossy roofs of fashionable cars packed in the narrow straits of Piccadilly."</em>
This suggests that he had a sense of how others see him. The same word choices that revealed that he is preoccupied with how others see him is also seen in line 16 of "The Duchess And The Jeweller":
<em> "...and he would </em><em>look down</em><em> at his legs, so shapely in their perfect trousers; at his boots; at his spats. They were all shapely, shining;..."</em>
Explanation:
The question is culled from "The Duchess And The Jeweller" written by Virginia Woolf.
The short story is centered on a jeweller known as Oliver Bacon who is the only developed character. The story has a reflection of the English society as seen during Woolf's time. The jeweller, Oliver is seen as an ambitious and arrogant man. He became one of the high-ups in the society and lived at Piccadilly, the most expensive place in London.
Adeline Virginia Woolf is the author of "The Duchess And The Jeweller". She is an English writer who is considered to have pioneered and led the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device.
<span>In November 1872, Anthony voted in the presidential election. Two weeks later, she was arrested. After her indictment, Anthony gave her famous On Womens Right to Vote speech. In the speech, Anthony invoked the preamble to the U.S. Constitution, pointing out that it addresses We, the people, and not We, the male citizens. She argued that those countries that denied women the right to vote were oligarchies. At the end, she challenged her detractors to answer this question: Are women persons?</span>
During her trial, Anthony was unable to testify on her behalf, since womens testimony was not considered to be competent. Instead, her lawyer presented her arguments. She was convicted of casting an illegal vote and fined $100. Anthony refused to pay the fine, stating, May it please your honor, I will never pay a dollar of your unjust penalty. Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.
