English

Answer:

The narrator mentions the feathers to imply that the camper is engaged in a trivial activity

Explanation:

In "A Servant to Servants" by Robert Frost, the narrator is a woman who suffers of mental illness and loneliness even though she has people around and she talks about this camper that is out on the fields in her husband's land and how he let himself go with banal things since it seems there's no much more there

Those lines are:

Our Willoughby! How did you hear of it?

I expect, though, everyone's heard of it.

In a book about ferns? Listen to that!

You let things more like feathers regulate

Your going and coming. And you like it here?

When Victor arrives at Ingolstadt, he encounters two professors: M. Krempe and M. Waldman. What inferences can you make about Vi
Alexandra [31]
The first person he encounters at Ingolstadt is Krempe, a professor of natural philosophy. This meeting is described as the work of an evil influence ­ the "Angel of Destruction." The professor is astounded at the absurd and outdated science that Victor has read in the past, and tells him to begin his studies completely anew. At first, the narrator is indifferent to the idea of returning to science: he has developed a deep contempt for natural philosophy and its uses. This changes, however, when Victor attends a lecture given by a professor named Waldman. Victor is completely enraptured by the ideas of Waldman, who believes that scientists can perform miracles, acquire unlimited powers, and "mock the invisible world with its own shadows." He decides to return to the study of natural philosophy at once; he visits Professor Waldman the following day to tell him that he has found a disciple in Victor Frankenstein.
