What odd behavior does the Reverend Dimmesdale display in his speech to Hester on the scaffold

English
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Dimmesdale defends and praises Hester in his speech, which would be very strange behavior for a reverend like him.

Explanation:

Hester has an illegitimate daughter and refuses to say who the child's father is. As she lives in a Puritan society where patriarchy and conservatism reigns, she suffers prejudice and insults from the whole society. However, Reverend Dimmesdale (a cleric who should abolish Hester's sin) gives a speech in favor of Hester, where he praises her and reinforces her qualities. This is very strange behavior, which made the whole community suspicious.

Gemiola [76]
<span>Based on the contextual information provided about author Stephen Crane, the theme that the last sentence of this excerpt from his short story "The Open Boat" likely reflects is that <u>nature is indifferent to humans.
</u>Nature is, in this case, the tower which looms over the destiny of tiny ants, or humans, and it doesn't really care what happens to us - it exists regardless of the fact whether we are there or not to witness its glory.<u>
</u></span>
