How can we determine which story is a myth and which is a legend?

English

Gala2k [10]3 years ago

Answer:

A legend is a semi-true story, which has been passed on from person-to-person and has important meaning or symbolism for the culture in which it originates and is based on historic facts.A myth however is a story based on tradition , which has a deep symbolic meaning. A myth 'conveys a truth' to those who tell it and hear it, rather than necessarily recording a true event. They are often used to explain how something came about.

The way to tell the difference would be looking for fact and exaggeration. If you see these its most likely a legend. If there is a lot of symbolism or trying to explain the origins of something, it is most likely a myth.

The technique that the author Irving incorporates in this story is that of

  • Quickening the pace.

Quickening the pace is a technique that authors use to build suspense in a text.

In this technique, events take place in a very hasty manner that makes the reader wonder what next will happen, or what will be the final outcome.

We see this applied at the outset of this story, the fast manner in which the character wore his clothes, moved down the stairs, and tumbled over some pieces of furniture.

All of these actions infuse suspense in the reader who wonders what will happen next.
