Answer:
This quote of Gene Forrester shows how disillusioned and unrealistic his belief about the great war is.
Explanation:
The given quote is spoken by Gene Forrester in chapter 8 of the book <em>A Separate Peace</em> by John Knowles. The given lines show the disparity of the boys' world and the reality of the world. Amidst the war that was going on in the outside world, the boys are rather more concerned about their rivalry and academic life.
In the given passage, Gene compares World War II with that of an ocean wave, <em>"gathering power and size"</em>. But this shows just how trivial the war seems to him, without realizing the severity of the situation. Their location in Devon was unfazed by the war which had ravaged other parts of the nation. It has <em>"eluded"</em> them, and that it had gone away, without any need to worry about it's return. Gene also expressed his belief that even though the war had hurled <em>"harmlessly overhead, no doubt throwing others roughly up on the beach, but leaving me peaceably treading water as before"</em>, he believes that there is no more harm coming. He did not believe <em>"another even larger and more powerful"</em> wave will follow the one that they have just eluded.
Tom feels like he is of the "superior" race. He explains a book that he read that says that if they don't watch out, the white race will be "submerged" in just a matter of years. Clearly he believes that as a white man he is of the dominant race, and the fact that there is a book published about it and he can freely say these things shows that many people in society are of the same mind.
Some people today still think this way, although it is socially not acceptable to say it or act like it. Fitzgerald probably included this information to show how opinionated Tom is and set the tone of society at the time.
The Ancient Greeks took their entertainment very seriously and used drama as a way of investigating the world they lived in, and what it meant to be human.
The three genres of drama were comedy, satyr plays, and most important of all, tragedy.
