In "The Birthmark," Hawthorne develops the theme that insistence on physical perfection often leads to emotional harm. Which det

ails from the story contribute to the development of this theme?Select the two correct answers."'Then why did you take me from my mother’s side?

The statements that correctly contribute to the theme that insistence on physical perfection often leads to emotional harm are;

  • "'Then why did you take me from my mother’s side? You cannot love what shocks you!'"
  • "Aylmer’s somber imagination was not long in rendering the birthmark a frightful object, causing him more trouble and horror than ever Georgiana’s beauty, whether of soul or sense, had given him delight."

The two statements, culled from The Birthmark by Nathaniel Hawthorne, show individuals who are troubled because of insistence on physical features. In the first sentence, the woman Georgina wonders why her husband Aylmer will marry her when the birthmark on her face shocks him. She is deeply angered by this.

In the second sentence, Aylmer is so invested in a birthmark that he feels troubled. These two experiences indicate that an insistence on physical features can cause emotional harm.

How to apply the theme to a question
Tanya [424]

Answer:

There are many different ways to apply a theme to a question. One of the ways is to think about the theme and then fit it into the question. For example, if the theme is dogs and cats then the question would be about dogs and cats. If you are answering the question then your answer should somewhat restate the question and be about dogs and cats.

Explanation:

This is how I apply themes to my questions and your question was not very clear in the first place so I was very confused on what you wanted me to write and I have the explanation in the answer so yeah.
