How do the characters contribute to the theme of Fourteen?

English

Answer:

The theme about the unexpected good endings to problems is supported mainly through the character of Mrs. Pringle. The problem of who and how many guests arises from what she wants and is presented through her words and actions. At the end of the play, she announces the unexpected ending by stating how happy she is to have the Prince of Wales instead of Oliver Farnsworth, whom she had been counting on.

All three characters support the theme of people going overboard to reach high social standing. Mrs. Pringle supports this in her reasons for having the party in the first place and the fuss she makes over the details. The words and actions of Elaine and Dunham support the theme in that they provide the ideas that feed Mrs. Pringle’s frustration. They keep her updated on the changing number of guests and the situation regarding the amount of food.

Who is more likely to say 'On, you can't trust them, they wouldn't even help a friend'?
lana66690 [7]

The question above is one of about the psychology of trust.

According to psychologists, people who find it hard to trust others usually themselves can't be trusted.

Some of the signs that a person has trust issues are:

  • they make people seem like they are capable of exhibiting the very action that they are capable of: This entails accusing others of behaviors that they themselves are exhibiting or thinking of carrying out;

  • They breach confidentiality: It is easy to see from the comment that the person speaking is most likely prone to breach confidentiality. If a person has refused to help another, the question is, how is that related to whether or not they are trustworthy?

So a person who is more likely to say that you can't trust another person may themselves be unworthy of trust.
