The setting in Melville’s “<em>Bartleby the Scrivener</em>” is a crucial element in the story. The extended title, “<em>A Story of Wall-Street</em>”, provides the specific setting as regards place. At that time, Wall Street had become an important financial center in America. As regards the year of publication, the work was first published in 1953 which was a time of rapid development in American economy.
The story takes place in a law office in Manhattan. The office presents an <u>unfriendly environment</u> that resembles the <u>business-based atmosphere of Wall Street</u>. The space is described as “<em>entirely unhallowed by humanizing domestic associations</em>” (p.36). In that way, the author describes the <u>impersonality of a business society</u>. In this context, the author does not provide the reader with any information about the characters apart from their particular behavior in the office. Also, the word “walls” is repeated many times throughout the story and they refer to the barriers between employer and employee.

Answer and Explanation:
Nat is a boy who was invited by a theater director to become a member of a theater group that presents Shakesperian plays. Nat accepts the invitation and ends up acting in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and "Julio Cesar" where he proved to be a very talented and promising actor. However, one day, when he returned home, he felt extremely ill, feverish and sick. He ended up sleeping in his room and was transported through time, waking up in Elizabethan England. On this journey through time, he ends up meeting Shakespeare who is very surprised by his acting ability and invites him to be a member of his theater group. Nat lives very unique and fun moments in Elizabethan England, but in the blink of an eye he is transported back to the future, where he wakes up in a hospital bed, not sure if he really traveled in time, or just had a fever dream.
Nat is the main character of "King Of Shadows" that tells of his adventures as an actor of the Shakespeare Theater company, in the beginnings of the British theater.
