Answer and Explanation:
What "cage" did Lizabeth realize that her and her childhood companions were trapped in during the Great Depression?
Lizabeth is a character is Eugenia Collier's short story "Marigolds", set during the Great Depression. According to Lizabeth, who is also the narrator of the story, the cage in which she and the other children in story were trapped was poverty.
How did this "cage" limit Lizabeth and her companions, and how did they react to it as children?
<u>Lizabeth says poverty is a cage because it limits her and her companions. They know, unconsciously, that they will never grow out of it, that they will never be anything else other than very poor. However, since they cannot understand that consciously yet, the children and Lizabeth react to that reality with destruction. They channel their inner frustrations, project their anger outwards - more specifically, they destroy Miss Lottie's garden of marigolds.</u>
<em>"I said before that we children were not consciously aware of how thick were the bars of our cage. I wonder now, though, whether we were not more aware of it than I thought. Perhaps we had some dim notion of what we were, and how little chance we had of being anything else. Otherwise, why would we have been so preoccupied with destruction? Anyway, the pebbles were collected quickly, and everybody looked at me to begin the fun."</em>
Answer:
I imagine It may be difficult for only children to understand the kind of brotherly relationship that includes both devoted love and the most ruthless hatred. But my personal experience allowed me to better understand the brother´s relationship and therefore the text itself.
Explanation:
Text-to-self connections are the most interesting for me. Books often provide me comfort and helpful tools to apply in my personal life. The Outsider made me think of my family, specifically my relationship with my brothers. I love both of them, but family issues, mostly related to financial problems, often get in the way of us having a good relationship. We fight a lot.
I find a sign of hope in how Darry and Ponyboy reconcile at the end, at Sodapop´s request. Their brotherhood overcomes Dally’s and Johnny’s deaths while strengthening their family bond. I hope my brothers and I can someday do the same with our own issues.
