Answer:

The adjective that I think best describes the "lieutenant" in the story is BRAVE.

Explanation:

"An Episode Of War" is a short story by Stephen Crane. The protaginist of the story is unnamed "lieutenant" who lose his arm in the battle. The story tells us about the life of a lieutenant. Their life is tough not only on just the war-field but also when they become victim of the war and loses any of their body parts and become unfit for the war-field. In the story this unnamed lieutenant is treated badly at the hospital by the doctor after he was shot. His family cries seeing him in one arm. But the lieutenant is brave as even after facing this much of problems and scorns he is ready to face the life even with one arm.

And this is the story of how the lieutenant lost his arm. When he

reached home, his sisters, his mother, his wife sobbed for a long time

at the sight of the flat sleeve. "Oh, well," he said, standing

shamefaced amid these tears, "I don't suppose it matters so much as all

that."

thought at large or within specific cultural contexts when studied across time and place. The

formal definition of a story is “a short account of an amusing, interesting, or telling incident,

whether real of fictitious” (OED Online). The dominant stories of a particular group can

epitomize group identity at a given moment in terms of collective history, norms, values, ideals,

and ideology, most notably when they are bolstered by narrative patterns and characters that are

retold and recast repeatedly in everyday speech, solidified in books, broadcasted by cinema and

Comparison between mathemagician and king azaz

Mazyrski [523]

Hey there!
I take it we're talking about The Phantom Tollbooth.
In this story, the two Kingdoms- Digitopolis and Dictionopolis, ruled by the Mathemagician and King Azaz, are not at peace.
The Mathemagician believes that numbers are better than words, and Azaz thinks otherwise, and they refuse to talk with each other.
However, they both are the same in one aspect because they both agree on something, and that is that they always will agree that they always will disagree with each other.
Also, towards the end of the book (no spoilers!) they begin to realize the true meaning of working together to save the day.
Hope this helps
