Answer:

Love becomes the influencing factor for the princess and she did not want him to die but she also knows she can't have him get married to another woman. And debating between the two options, which either way will make sure she doesn't get him, she must decide on which door to choose from, with the man's full faith in her.

If I were in the princess's position, I would choose rather see him get married to the woman instead of leading him to his death. Even though there may be no future, the man still deserves to live and be alive and not be killed just because he fell in love with a princess.

Explanation:

In the short story "The Lady or The Tiger", the fate of the young man depends on the decision of the princess. And with his life on her hands, the author Frank R. Stockton leaves us with the big question of whether the princess led the young man to his death the tiger, or to the beautiful lady who will become his wife.

With the primary theme being love between the princess and the courtier who was from a lower social class, the notion of love becomes the most important aspect of the young man's life. And with his faith in her, the feeling of love supersedes the fear of choosing the wrong door. He has full faith in the princess's choice that is best for him. But the princess, on the other hand, has a lot to think about before deciding to lead her lover to the door he thinks is right for him. She has to choose to either see him get married to another woman or be killed by a tiger. And she even feels jealous to think of him getting married to another woman. This is what love does to a person, bringing in jealousy and hatred even to the point of killing the other person with the notion "if I can't have you, no one can". But at the same time, the author did not specify what door the princess leads the young man to, leaving us to conclude.

If the position to make the decision was on me, I think I will choose to keep him alive and rather see him married to another woman instead of killing him and taking his life. Taking the life of a person is not something that a person has the right to, and it is far better to see a person alive and secure instead of leading him to his death. Besides, living is our right and no one should be deprived of that unless they did a sinful deed worthy of death.

What is the main idea of the story bread by Margaret Atwood
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer with Explanation:

The story "Bread" by<em> Margaret Atwood</em> depicts the <u>difference of life between the wealthy and poor.</u> She used the common object, which is bread, in order to give a clear meaning when it comes to everyday practice of rich people that seemed harmless, yet is actually causing harm to society. So, she describes <em>how bread brings comfort to people, yet it also brings danger to those who have shortcomings in life.</em> People fight to have bread in order to live and this causes war. When war happens, one side wants to rise above the other so he can have more bread in order to survive.

Her writings seemed more like an accusation to the readers but is, actually, intended in order for the reader to open his eyes.
