Answer:

The French writer tells about the contradictions of this world. For example, if a person values his skills and wants to charge it properly, people usually complain and say that he overestimates himself; however, if a person gives a lower price for his services, people will have doubts in his work.

Explanation:

In this literary work, a person receives an inheritance from his grandson and as he is not greedy, he wants to rent a house for minimal price. He wants to win the hearts of people, but the only thing he did was to bring a bad reputation to the family. So, in this work, the contradictions of human nature can be related to everyday life.

The Historical Event Is The Invasion Of The Spanish Armada Of 1588

The enormous sea fleet sent by King Philip II of Spain in 1588 to invade England. England tried to counter this fleet by fighting entirely with heavy guns, and the failure of Spain’s Armada saved England from possible absorption into the Spanish empire.

This event is usually viewed with an overwhelming focus on the battle itself,  showcasing the skills of the English fleet which was under the command of Charles Howard who battled the leadership of the experienced admiral Medina-Sidonia.

If we were to use the feminist critical literary theory the event would be viewed differently.

The Invasion Of The Spanish Armada Of 1588 happened during the Elizabethan Era, it was under her leadership that the Spanish Armada was defeated and she saved England from invasion, defending an invasion from the greatest European power of the age.

<em>¨I know I have the body of a weak, </em><em>feeble woman</em><em>; but I have the heart and stomach of a </em><em>king</em><em>, and of a </em><em>king of England</em><em> too.¨</em>

The feminist critical literary theory is a lense through which we can view a historical event. In literary criticism we may use reasoning, emotion and logic but it helps to try on different ¨lenses¨ to search for deeper meaning. Our view of the event may change if we are only concerned with the ways in which this event may reinforce or undermine the leadership of either the men or women involved or vice versa.

”They had what was their own and coveted not what others had produced”
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

1. These words were said by the old grandfather to the king.

2. The name of the lesson is "A Grain as Big as A Hen's Egg" written by Leo Tolstoy.

3. The word "covet" means to envy or be jealous of something that others have. Wanting or desiring what belongs to others is what "covet" means.

Explanation:

The given quote is a simple explanation that the oldest grandfather gave the king. He said that in his time, no one has any feeling of jealousy for what belongs to others because there was nothing that belongs to a particular person. Everyone shares their produce and also openly/ freely gave to others. As such, everyone was happy with their lives and has no need to 'covet'.

1. These words were said by the oldest grandfather to the king.

2. The name of the lesson is "A Grain as Big as A Hen's Egg" written by Leo Tolstoy.

3. The word "covet" means to envy or be jealous of something that others have. Wanting or desiring what belongs to others is what "covet" means.
