Question: Read the excerpt from Chapter 28 of Moby-Di ck. It had previously come to me that this ivory leg had at sea been fashioned from the polished bone of the sperm whale’s jaw. How is the fact that Ahab’s leg is made from whale bone significant to the novel’s theme of man versus nature?
Answer: It signifies that Ahab has pitted himself against nature in an effort to dominate it.
Explanation: he wants people to know what he does for a living and loves fishing for whales even if it kills him so he painted his prostetic leg

The answer to this would be true.
The theme of "The Luster of Lost Things" is seeking out one's inner truth in the urban, alienated world. The hero of the book is a young boy, Walter Lavender, whose speech disorder has rendered him incapable of communicating with other people, and has resulted in many limitations that he imposed upon himself. He sets off to accomplish a mission of finding a lost book from his mother's shop. This journey will set him free and teach him many hidden truths about himself and the world.
