Explore the ways in which Bronte creates sympathy for the girls at Lowood school.
givi [52]

Answer:

Bronte creates sympathy for the girls at Lowood school by employing the literary device of personification and starkly describing the girls' less than favorable living conditions in the school.

Explanation:

  • Bronte described Jane's first morning at Lowood school during a winter, the water in the pitchers the girls are meant to use for their morning ablutions are frozen and yet they have to use the water like that.
  • During breakfast they were served burnt porridge they could not eat and consequently had to suffer through the morning to lunch time without eating anything, an event that Bronte suggested happened more than once.
  • The girls are denied simple and harmless luxuries like keeping their natural curls and wearing clean stockings, a fact that ironically contrasts with the way the proprietor's family present themselves in artificial finery.
  • When disease struck the inhabitants of Lowood Bronte described the dismal atmosphere using personification: "while disease had thus became an inhabitant of Lowood, and death its frequent visitor; while there was gloom within its walls; while its rooms and passages steamed with hospital smells." All the makes the reader feel sympathetic towards the girls, as they are living in conditions that are not fit to be lived in.

In the first paragraph, the narrator says, "[The Hydrophobic Skunk] is so rare that nobody ever saw him--that is, nobody except
poizon [28]
It is based on the context that the Hydrophobic Skunk is so rare that nobody ever saw him, this indicates that the regular person from anywhere cannot identify if the skunk really exist since no one has ever seen one. It is like a myth or a legend or just really rare. For the native, who has seen one or perhaps has been living with one around its area, knows the skunk exists, but depends on whether he or she knows its the name as Hydrophobic Skunk since no report was given that the skunk lives in the certain area. He or she may refer to it as just a skunk.
