55 POINTS!!! PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!! FIRST TO GET THE BEST ANSWER FIRST WILL GET BRAINLIEST!!The following question references the
novel The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane. There were four soldiers that were captured at the end of the battle. Crane described them to have the "shame of captivity"? Do you think if the Union soldiers would have lost and Henry would have been captured he would have still been able to consider himself courageous?
Because Henry seems to have a skewed perception of courage, it is possible that he could have continued to live his life in this "shame of captivity". On the other hand, perhaps he would have realized that although his regiment was defeated, he had still proved to himself that he could fight in the face of death. Therefore, he was still a man of courage and bravery.
She successfully diffuses the tension by engaging Mr. Cunningham in conversation and is responsible that no violence occurs outside the jail that night.
