The author mentions society's ability to "execute its own mandates" primarily to show that the citizens of a society must act on free will unless they harm others. It is then the government should interfere to provide protection to the society.

Explanation:

Adapted from 'On Liberty' by John Stuart Mill

John Stuart Mill stated: "Society can and does execute its own mandates; and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right, or any mandates at all in things with which it ought not to meddle, it practices a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression, since, though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties, it leaves fewer means of escape, penetrating much more deeply into the details of life, and enslaving the soul itself."

The author mentions society's ability to "execute its own mandates" primarily to show that the citizens of a society must act on free will unless they harm others. It is then the government should interfere to provide protection to the society.

In "Musèe des Beaux Arts" by W.H. Auden, what do the people on the ship do after they see icarus fall into the sea?
Vika [28.1K]

In Musèe des Beaux Arts by W.H. Auden the people on the ship do nothing after seeing Icarus fall into the sea and the ship continues on its way. Why was that? Because according to the author, when a tragedy happens, human beings are not affected by it if their interests are protected and they have an horizon to pursue.

Explain how this quote relates to the novel Frankenstein.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

according to the book logically we are told that the book title Frankenstein is not named after the "monster" but rather the scientist because of his sir name. that's knowledge.

Wisdom on the other hand, correlates to Frankenstein being a monster because he is afraid of what he has created and treats his creation cruelly and bitterly without a chance of redemption for his creation to be treated kindly when initially the creation just wanted to be valid in the eyes of his creator, thus feeling a need for vengeance and justice for itself and feeling as though Frankenstein deserved to pay through pain and suffering the creation itself felt. In a sense, Frakenstein deserves everything the creation had done to him because the creation felt like he was abused. because of Frankenstein's early ignorant actions and consequences of playing god he cars not only himself but his creation much suffering and that's why he is a monster of poor moral conduct.
