Answer:

The purpose of the figurative language in the excerpt is to use analogies to represent an idea of masculinity.

Okonkwo is said to be like a "roaring flame", and a roaring flame is supposed to be powerful, a synonym for masculinity.

But he is described as having a son that was "effeminante", and the figurative language used to describe the son is that of "cold, impotent ash" that was left by the "roaring flame" after it stopped burning.

In about two hundred words, discuss your understanding regarding Okonkwo’s interactions with the women in his life. Is there any
den301095 [7]

Okonkwo's thinking and compression about femininity and the way he interacts and lives with women is not much different, as he has a strong opinion about it and believes that women should act in the way his concepts were settled down. In the same way, he believes that femininity is what he has established in his thinking and believes that it is right.

For Okonkwo, femininity imposes that those who have it are weak, inferior, childish, emotional, unable to be independent and mentally inefficient. Women are the greatest holders of femininity, so for Okonkwo all women (and men with characteristics that he considered female) should live in a submissive way and do what men, full of masculinity, believed that should be done.
