Why do you think Mark Twain uses a young boy as the main character and narrator of the novel?
OLEGan [10]
There are several reasons why Twain chooses a young boy to tell the story in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

Read this excerpt from “The Story of the Porter and the Three Ladies” and answer the question.
Serggg [28]

Answer:

The above excerpt is a good example of the many storytelling devices used in 1001 Nights except surprise ending.

Explanation:

<u>The excerpt we are analyzing here does have elements of repetition, dialogue and recurring theme. However, it is not a good example of surprise ending, and the reason for that is very simple. </u>Take a look at how the excerpt ends:

<em>The porter was so dazzled he could hardly believe that he heard her aright, but he shouldered his basket in hot haste, saying in himself, "O day of good luck! O day of Allah's grace!" and walked after her till she stopped at the door of a house.</em>

<u>This is not a proper ending. As a matter of fact, this is the beginning of the story. Readers are left expecting, wondering what happens to the porter and the mysterious woman once they reach that door.</u> It might very well be that the story does have an interesting ending, but we are analyzing the excerpt only. And the excerpt does not have an ending whatsoever.

Certainly the utmost rim of my first dome was filled with the tumultuous impression of soldiers marching to death for freedom's
Tamiku [17]

The author uses this literary device called Figurative Language to express the feelings experienced; in this passage, the narrator talks about how the its mind and head were with the awful feeling of sadness. The author also talks about the sensation of space in which her mind was enclosed.

All this sentences and comparisons are part of a Figurative language that is used to make the speech more effective, persuasive, and impactful for the reader to feel more deeply the words of the narrator and could live through them. This figure goes beyond the literal meaning of the words and gives the reader more insights.
