What are 5 possible themes for the book Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck?

English

Gwar [14]4 years ago

1. Hopes, Dreams, and Plans: George and Lennie may dream a little dream of owning a farm, but they don't get very far with their to-do list before it all crumbles in heartbreaking failure.

2. Friendship: Of Mice and Men is the equivalent of a bro hug: all sublimated emotion, gruff affection, and hearty back pats. George and Lennie don't text each other eleven times a day, and they don't like every single cat picture the other posts on Facebook—but we still get the sense that they take their friendship more seriously than anything.

3. Isolation: No man is an island… unless he's an itinerant worker during the Great Depression, and then he's about as lonely as you can get.

4. Innocence: Lennie's mental disability makes him into a child, with a child's innocence: he likes hanging out with George and petting soft things. Sounds like a great Friday night! Oh, but there's a problem: he's a child trapped in the body of a powerful man. Innocence may protect Lennie, because he never has to deal with the reality of what he's done—but it doesn't protect the people (or pets) around him.

5. Freedom and Confident: Lennie and George are tied down by their need for money. Curley's wife is limited by being a woman. Crooks is stuck because of his race. Except when they're caught up in the intensity of the dream, most characters in Of Mice and Men seem more focused on bemoaning their confinement than planning for their freedom.

Which source would be considered the most trustworthy?
Svet_ta [14]

The answer would most likely be C, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a TV show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.

1.  A) A leader is stepping down from his position. 
This is evident has Napoleon states "<span>I go, but you, my friends, will continue to serve France." He is leaving his position but his guard will continue to stay, so the text evokes a certain farewell speech where he thanks his soldiers for his service while he was their leader.

2. C) Napoleon spent twenty years with his army.
This can be drawn from the direct statement "</span><span>For twenty years I have constantly accompanied you on the road to honor and glory. " He does not make any mention of the French citizens nor does he give any indication they betrayed their leader, as they fought for twenty years and forged a strong bond.</span>
