Answer:

Albert Camus may have chosen his title "The Stranger" to show how the narrator feels and is made to be a stranger in the story.

It is indeed an effective story for the protagonist became and remain a stranger to all of the characters even till his death.

Explanation:

Albert Camus may have chosen "The Stranger" as his title of the book to show how his main protagonist may have become like a stranger to everyone else in the story. The protagonist Meursalt seems indifferent and even 'heartless' to all of the other characters throughout the whole story.

Meursalt was first projected as being emotionless at the funeral of his own mother. Then, he killed an Arab man while defending his friend Raymond against the latter's ex girlfriend's brother and friends. This landed him in his present situation, imprisoned and waiting to be hanged. During all of these trials, his personality and approach towards others were used as a means of judging his innocence or guilt. And considering his social life, he was found to be too inhumane towards others. His ex girlfriend accused him of being cold, stating that they went out on a movie date right after the death of his mother, and that too, watching a comedy.

The prosecutor uses the quiet nature of Meursalt as a sign of his guilt and remorse, leading to further speculation of his behavior the whole time. His inability to shed tears during his mother's funeral and the fact that he did not believe in God further 'proves' his guilt. His outburst about others having no right to judge him when they don't really know him was also taken by the court as a sign that he is indeed guilty.

The whole demeanor of the protagonist before, during and after the trial shows his reluctance to be among people, his own independence and maybe even his 'original' nature of just being a quiet man. He may seem indifferent at certain times but that doesn't mean he is a bad person. But at the end of the story, he was proven guilty and waited for his execution. He remains a stranger to everyone till his death. Thus, Albert Camus is right in titling the book as "The Stranger".

<u>Answer:</u>

First, we need to understand the title of the story. Camus is born in French, so this is the reason why he decided to write the book the Stranger in France. Since it was all right and that is the reason why he decided to give the book with a French title.. it is here there strange things happen is its translation.

Arguing with translation brings the semantics with fun activities. Since the main character is, a foreigner makes the story interesting

Which sentence refers to the reality of Farquhar ‘s situation in the dream sequence in section 3 of “An occurrence at Owl Creek
Vika [28.1K]
In Ambrose Bierce's short story, "An Event at Owl River Scaffold," Peyton Farquhar is a mainstay of the American South, which, amid the period being referred to, the Common War, can be generally meant mean a well off, upstanding native of the Alliance, and an adversary of the abolitionist development. At a very early stage in his story, Bierce gives the accompanying depiction of his hero who, in the story's opening sections, is going to be executed by hanging:  

"The man who was occupied with being hanged was evidently around thirty-five years old. He was a non military personnel, on the off chance that one may judge from his propensity, which was that of a grower. . .Obviously this was no obscene professional killer." 

Bierce goes ahead to develop his depiction of Peyton Farquhar, taking note of that this figure "was a well to do grower, of an old and exceedingly regarded Alabama family," and that, being "a slave proprietor and like other slave proprietors a legislator, he was normally a unique secessionist and vigorously committed toward the Southern reason." Bierce takes note of that Farquhar imagined himself at one point as an officer in the reason for the Alliance, however one whose military interests were hindered for reasons that are incidental to the account. 

In area II of his story, Bierce gives foundation to clarify Farquhar's difficulty as referenced in the account's opening sections, portraying the primary hero's experience with a dark clad trooper, probably a Confederate warrior battling on an indistinguishable side of this contention from that to which Farquhar's sensitivities lie. It is soon uncovered, be that as it may, that this dim clad trooper is with the Association and has basically set-up the well-to-do southerner as an assumed saboteur. The "Government scout" does this by planting in the psyche of Farquhar the proposal of setting flame to the Owl Brook connect, a key structure vital to the development of Association troops as they progress over the South: 

The fighter reflected. "I was there a month prior," he answered. "I watched that the surge of the previous winter had stopped an incredible amount of driftwood against the wooden dock at this finish of the extension. It is presently dry and would consume like tinder." 

<span>The response to the inquiry - why was Peyton Farquhar hanged - lies in this recommendation negatively offered by the Government spy. Farquhar takes the draw, as it were, and endeavors to cut off the tie to keep its misuse by northern troopers.</span>

4. What do these following slogan mean?
Solnce55 [7]

Explanation:

The word Hustler is actually a word usually used by Nigerians

Hustler is one who differs all odds just to make a living or make little money for survival. We all look for money but just that some people go extreme or work harder for it.

A quitter is one who stops chasing his or her dreams after exhaustion but one who never quits will definitely go through all odds like the quitter but has the courage to continue and will surely make it or win.

We all ordinary people, but those who work harder aren't they excel.

I hope it helps out.

What kind of mural is Sonny’s mother painting?
Triss [41]

Answer and Explanation:

The mother in “Sonny’s Blues” is portrayed as a saint-like figure who tries to guard and protect her children and husband from the darkness of the world. She shepherds her husband through the overwhelming grief that follows his brother’s death. She lived up to overcome the biblical challenge. She has lived a decent life.

She helped to bear her husband’s tragedy as her own. Same as Jesus is often depicted as a shepherd, Sonny’s mother's presence makes her husband’s life manageable. Her life story is a direct challenge to the narrator.

In addition to her compassion, the mother also has played a prophetic role to play in the narrative. She can see her impending death and the dangers her youngest son will face eventually. As a mother, she has protected her family but now that she gets to know that she is going to die, she knows she will no longer be able to guide and protect her family the way she did earlier.

Sonny’s mother tried her best to complete the whole family by guarding them. She tried her best to protect her family from the evils of the worlds just like a wall which is being painted by painters to protect the walls.
