What is ironic in the words used by the narrator to describe the Summoner in “The Prologue” to The Canterbury Tales?

1 answer:

7 0

The Summoner was a church official who was responsible for calling out sinners before the courts. Although this was his job, he himself is a sinner. The Summoner would allow a sinner to keep a mistress for an entire year just in return for a quart of wine. He is sympathetic to such people because in all likelihood he commits the same sin himself.

In approximately 300 words, describe how the poverty of the Great Depression has an impact on the story of To Kill a Mockingbird

Mashcka [7]

Answer: It had a huge impact on the setting of TKAM.

Explanation: The Great Depression has a lot to do with To Kill a Mockingbird. The catalyst for the Great Depression was the Wall Street "crash" (when stock prices dropped sharply). The Great Depression was making everyone poor, but luckily the major protagonists were well-off to a certain extent. Many characters in the novel are extremely poor, such as the Ewells and the Cunninghams, so 'The Great Depression' helps Harper Lee show and differentiate between different classes of Maycomb and how economically diverse it is.
