Compare and contrast oscar wilde's point of view from ernest's point of view of victorian society

English
1 answer:
leva [86]2 years ago
3 0

Oscar Wilde mocks the Victorian society, he thinks the society is pretentious, full of self-importance, ignorance, and idleness. He thinks that upper-class Victorian society has some ideas that are nonsensical.

His character Ernest/Jack leads a double life, he was discovered as a baby in a handbag in the cloakroom of Victoria Station. He was adopted and leads a double life because he portrays himself as a major landowner and a number of servants that hide his poor past. He creates a false brother that is an irresponsible black-sheep, so he can lead a scandalous life without getting in trouble.

Jack has a respect for all these Victorian rules and societies social rules - such as marriage and the money that comes with it - even though he knows they are false the same way he is. He pretends to disapprove his own behaviors as a way to portray a right and just character to the Victorian society.

Write an essay explaining whether it is better to work by yourself or with a group .
nlexa [21]

Answer:

It is better to work in a group. Working in a group is more efficient because the work can be distributed to all and you are forced to figure out your issues all on your own. When someone is given a task they look at through their point of view. Being in a group gives many different point of view's to all. For everyone sees the world and their tasks differently because of their circumstances, belief's, and characteristics. So when working in a group one gets many different looks upon the assignment or task. When one is working alone they may be in full control but they have the risk of not understanding or missing something because they did not think of it. Working in a group also creates connection with others. So if it is a new semester in school it is better to work in a group because you learn people's characteristics, you learn their faults and their strengths. It also allows you make new friends and learn to work as a team.
