Answer: The above quote of Chesterton is an example of a(n)<u> paradox </u>

Explanation:

  • A paradox is a self-contradictory statement. Although it might give valid reasons for a particular claim, it eventually leads to a logically unacceptable conclusion. The conclusion seems absurd, but expresses a possible truth. In this example, the same men who write about success are those that are not successful even in writing books.
  • An allegory is a literary device in which a broader message is given either in prose or verse.
  • A parable is a story which teaches us a moral/spiritual lesson (for instance, a story by Jesus from the Gospels)
  • A metaphor is a reference to one thing by mentioning another.

Compare the monster's interactions with the little girl in
kondaur [170]

Answers with Explanations:

1. Compare the monster's interactions with the little girl in paragraph 19 and the little boy in paragraphs 25-32.

The question above is related to the story about "Frankenstein."

"Paragraph 19" shows<u> how curious the monster was</u> when he saw the <em>little girl.</em> At this time, the monster was feeling a sense of joy on his journey. Hearing the girl's voice made him<em> a little shy</em> that's why he hid. It also showed his heroic side when he tried to save the girl when she fell into the stream. <em>This shows his human side</em> that somehow<em> he felt empathy for the girl.</em>

"Paragraphs 25-32" also shows the<u> monster's curiosity.</u> This time, he was curious about the little boy, who was the child brother of "Victor Frankenstein." At this time, the monster was feeling unhappy and fatigued. When he saw the boy, his immediate monster instinct overpowered him. Though he wanted the boy to be his friend, the boy called him an<em> "Ugly wretch."</em> This angered him, that's why he killed him.

2. How do these scenes' similarities and difference develop the monster's characterization?

Both of the scenes show the curiosity of the monster while he was<u> hiding among the fields.</u> The feelings of the monster during the time of encountering the girl and the boy reflects how he treated them. He was <em>happy when he saw the girl,</em> on the contrary, <em>he was fatigued and unhappy when he saw the boy</em>. It shows how his character of having empathy on the girl can quickly change into overpowering monster when he saw the boy.
