Edmond's point of view in "The Count of Monte Cristo" underscores the theme of how futile revenge is. The point of view in "Sea Fever" underscores the theme that living in nature is more pleasurable than urban living.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • In "The Count of Monte Cristo" we can see that Edmond maintains the point of view that someone who has suffered a crime must take revenge to find peace.
  • He maintains this thought throughout the narrative, but he cannot be satisfied with any result of his revenge, which reinforces the theme that revenge is something futile and meaningless.
  • “Sea Fever,” we can see that the speaker holds the view that the call of nature is something inevitable.
  • This speaker had an adventurous life when he lived amid nature, and the current life he has, in the city, is unsatisfactory because nature continues to call him.
  • This underscores the theme that living in nature is more pleasurable than urban living.

The point of view, in these cases, refers to the opinion of the characters.

Anne Frank begins her diary with the hope that she will be able to reveal everything to it, since she feels that she has never truly been able to confide in anyone. She tells the story of how she acquired the diary on Friday, June 12, her thirteenth birthday. Anne wakes up at six in the morning and waits until seven to open her presents. One of the presents is the new diary. Afterward, Anne’s friend Hanneli picks her up for school. Anne goes to gym with the other students, although she is not able to participate because her shoulders and hips dislocate too easily. She returns home at five in the afternoon. She describes several of her friends—Hanneli, Sanne, and Jacqueline—whom she has met at the Jewish Lyceum, the local school for Jewish children. Anne writes about her birthday party on Sunday and continues to describe her classmates. She believes that “paper is more patient than people” and feels that she does not have any true friends and confidants. She has a loving family and many people she could call friends or admirers, but she cannot confide in any of them. Anne then provides a brief overview of her childhood. She was born in Frankfurt, Germany, in 1929. Her family moved to Holland in 1933 because they were Jewish and her father found a job at a Dutch chemical company. Anne went to a Montessori nursery school and then went on to the Jewish Lyceum. Anne says that her family’s lives are somewhat anxious, especially since they have relatives still living in Germany. Her two uncles fled to North America, and her grandmother came to Holland to live with Anne’s family. After 1940, the Nazis occupied Holland and instituted restrictive laws forcing Jews to wear yellow stars to identify themselves. The Germans forced the Jews to turn in their bicycles and shop only during certain hours. Jews were also restricted from riding streetcars, going outside at night, visiting Christian homes, and attending most schools. Anne’s grandmother died in 1942, in the midst of this difficult time. Anne starts addressing her diary as “Kitty” and writes that she and her friends have started a Ping-Pong club. After playing Ping-Pong, the girls go to the nearest ice cream shop that permits Jews, and they let admirers buy them ice cream. Anne complains that she knows boys will become enamored with her right away when she lets them bicycle home with her, so she tries to ignore them. Anne tells Kitty that her entire class is “quaking in their boots” and waiting to hear who will be promoted to the next grade. She is not worried about any subject except math, because in math class she was punished for talking too much. Anne adds that after she wrote a few funny essays on her punishment, the teacher began joking along with her. Anne notes that it is hot and realizes what a luxury it is to ride in a streetcar, since Jews cannot use them anymore. The ferryman lets them ride the ferry, and Anne says that it is not the fault of the Dutch that the Jews are being persecuted. She tells her diary that a boy, Hello Silberberg, approached her and that they have started to see each other more often.

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

The people and events that influence a writer

Explanation:

The writer decides to write about something that happened years back, therefore, his style, diction will be related to that era/time.

For example, a contemporary writer that wants to write about Victorian era must place the events in the book in the right historical context i.e one can't see certain words and expressions, and the characters can't wear leather strap blouses or live in condos.
