Question

Look back at the Time Traveller's dialogue. Explain what it reveals about him and about what has happened to him. In your response, include at least one of the phrases he uses.

Answer 1

Answer:

The time traveler feels special for having performed a feat most men will never be able to. In his statement "I’ve lived eight days . . . such days as no human" he clearly feels very unique and at such demands to be respected and given special previledges which is seen when he asks ‘Where’s my mutton?’ upon been offered a special position to sit, declaring his right.

The time traveler is seen to capitalize and make gain off his feat such that he demands for meat in exchange for his story and also, he changed his stance on eating first before telling his story when he was offered money for his story as he ate; reverting to apologising by saying ‘I suppose I must apologize' and proceeded with telling the story as he ate.
