In Hard Times by Charles Dickens, the scene in which the characters discuss the
depiction of horses on wallpaper and flowers on carpets is the author's way of showing the absurdity believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life
Answer is D- believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life
D). Believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life.
Explanation:
'Hard Times' is one of the most acknowledged works of Dickens as it primarily aims to satirize the social and economic condition of Nineteenth-century England which was a result of Industrialization.
As per the question, the portrayal of horses on the wallpaper and the flowers on carpets reflects the author's manner of displaying the absurdity of 'believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life.' <u>The author uses these symbols as tools to present the 'mechanization' that has been involved in the art </u>too and prevents the students from becoming a true artist. <u>He satirizes that this factory-style learning is suppressing the inquisitive and desiring mind</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
