Describe the tense conversation between Trevor’s mother and the minibus driver.

English

BabaBlast [244]3 years ago

The conversation between Trevor's mother and the minibus driver showed how the enmity between the Zulu and Xhosa tribes was violent and full of cruel stereotypes.

We can answer this answer because:

  • Trevor's mother was from the Xhosa tribe, while the minibus driver was from the Zulu tribe.
  • These tribes were enemies and when the driver realized that Trevor's mother was from the Xhosa tribe, he started treating her very badly.
  • He spoke many curses to Trevor's mother and accused her of being a promiscuous and immoral woman, as this was a stereotype of the women of the Xhosa tribe.
  • Trevor's mother didn't take the curses and rebutted them with as much dignity as she could, but that wasn't enough to silence the driver.

Trevor claims that the Zulu and Xhosa trios were very different from each other, particularly in terms of their stances against the colonial elite. He claims that the Xhosa were positioning themselves politically and diplomatically, while the Zulu were positioning themselves in a combative and violent way.

This question is related to the book "Born a Crime."

Sc. 3, Lines 100–113: What point does Polonius want to make through his play on the word tender? What is the tone of his comment
Marat540 [252]

This excerpt is from 'The Hamlet'.

Explanation:

Ophelia says that Hamlet has made sincere proclamations of his love for her. Polonius answers, Tender yourself more dearly. Polonius means Ophelia should be more careful and judge to whom she has to give her affection.

Shakespeare uses humor in this scene but the humor is subtle as it describes the conflict between Ophelia and her father.

The tone creates despair and disgust among the readers. The story is about her love for Hamlet and loyalty to her father.

Polonius depicts Hamlet as unreliable and to have intentions that are not noble.
