Answer:

A challenging configuration in Harrison Bergeron is the inclusion of absurd, fanciful and cynical situations amid the narration of a tense, violent and serious moment. This helps us to understand the amazing universe and often bordering on the absurd that the author wanted to create for his story.

Explanation:

Harrison Bergeron is a short story written by Kurt Vonnegut, which presents a dystopian universe where the US government requires that all citizens be equal in their abilities. In this universe, no one can be more beautiful, but intelligent to the most talented than other citizens, at the risk of being harshly oppressed by the government.

The author uses a simple language in the short story which facilitates the comprehension of anyone who proposes to read it, however, to show the amazing universe created by the author, he decided to configure the text with absurd, funny and senseless events inside serious and tense situations in history.

Argos was Odysseus's hunting dog and his faithful pet. Even when its owner left it to fight in the battle of Troy, it waited for him for years and years, with unwavering loyalty.
