Answer:

Similarly, in the novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Captain Nemo exhibits a compelling persona through his arcane history and honorable personality. Much like the classic green thumb farmer, diesel breathing gear heads, or friendly, salty surfers of the west coast, Captain Nemo is the archetypal nautical equivalent of honorable characters seen in famous movies such as Quint from Jaws and Santiago in The Old Man and The Sea. With rigidity and an unknown past, Captain Nemo expresses positive characteristics that almost everyone can learn from. In the late 1800s sailors and explorers used sea monsters and other myths as an answer for the unknown. However, quite contradictory to a “Leviathan” or “enormous cetacean,” (Verne, 23) Jules Verne brought a colossus of a submarine into the novel. This is the first glimpse we get of Captain Nemo, the man behind the underwater vessel. Sophistication has been and always will be something admired by society. Understanding Jules Verne’s futuristic style of writing, the audience as well as characters in the novel, for example Pierre Arronax honor Nemo, “‘Monsieur,’ I said to Captain Nemo,’The honour of being the first to set foot on this land [Antarctica] belongs to you,’” (Verne, 132). Having shortcomings to some magnitude, all humans try to strive to be better. Captain Nemo shows this by taking Pierre as a world traveling companion. Honor is related closely with admiration, because people respect others who overcome low points in life. Captain Nemo has an arcane history granting him with experience and wisdom. The objective lens Captain Nemo uses to evaluate every scenario is present throughout the novel. “I am the law, I am the justice.”

Answer:

Captain Nemo, probably the most famous character created by the godfather of science fiction, 19th-century French writer Jules Verne, was a broken genius driven to acts of evil by the desire for revenge. He was the better known as the submarine maker. His mysterious and enigmatic style - equal parts hard and vengeful and calm and feeling - leads readers to never quite understand who he is or what he's about.

He was tall and bold and has wide-set eyes. His sharp fetures with a well defined long nose made it hard for author to tell his age, whether he was 30 or 50.

Unlike other famous fictitious characters, he's a villain

<span>1) Auntie Sonya wore a  d.)sorrowing expression. She was a lady who thought that life can't be good when people reach her age. The description by Iskander nicely emphasizes the mood that his character brings into story: ''She was a middle-aged woman with short hair and a look of permanent sorrow frozen on her face.''. Throughout the whole story she always seems unhappy.

2)  Uncle Shura calls the narrator a monk. He called him so because unlike his sister he follows the principles of the religion that their parents belong to. Uncle Shura said that in humoristic way, but the narrator become very offended primarily because his world of faith was destroyed in a second when his sister ate the pork.

3) The narrator's brother once jumped out a window. When he heard someone's knock at the door he realised that it is his teacher came to complain for his bad behaviour in school. When parents opened the door, the boy had already jumped out of the window in order to avoid punishment.

4) <span>The narrator thought he deserved the notebook more than his brother or sister. He became a little sad because at that time it was hard to get notebooks and he thought that kids have to deserve it. Since he was an excellent pupic he thought that all the 9 notebooks should belong to him, not to his sinful sister or his scampish brother.

5</span>) Treachery is compared to a caterpillar. When the narrator sums up all his thoughts and actions he admits that even though his sister left her principles, he was the only person that parents must blame on. And in the very last sentence he compares betrayal to a caterpillar : 'and that out of a small cocoon of petty envy, an ugly moth of betrayal can grow.'
