I believe that the options that best describe the qualities of the tragic heroine in these two passages are:
- They both show the main character sacrificing her life for her principles.
- They both show the main character experiencing a downfall and awaiting death.
- They both show moments in the main characters' experiences that evoke pity.
The tragic heroine trope portrays a female protagonist who ends up suffering terribly due to a fatal flaw in her character.
Hey there!
What he means by foul and fair is that first of all, war is always foul. People die, and it can end in victory for one side, but they will undoubtedly suffer losses.
However, there's a specific reason for this war. It's a war based on a disagreement or argument, and war was the way it was settled.
A situation can be both foul and fair if it has equal pros and cons, like suffering losses but settling an argument.
Hope this helps!
Nola was the daughter of the son
In Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut, the interaction between George and Hazel develop Kurt Vonnegut’s social criticism as It shows how technology can dehumanize and desensitize people.
On their son's murder, George and Hazel's reactions are brief and Hazel due to her "low intelligence" hers is underwhelming. Due to George's handicap, he is unable to dwell on anything for so long. So, when he watches his son on television, by a loud sound in his head his recognition is blasted away. He went into the kitchen to get a can of beer after Harrison is shot. whereas, Hazel cries. she gets momentarily distressed about what happened. therefore, due to her "low" intelligence, she quickly forgets about what happened. and when inquired by her husband upon the reason of tear, she forgets stating “Something real sad on television.”
Hence, in such a Bergeron's society handicaps assure that no negative emotion distress them. Therefore, they feel a momentary pain upon Harrison is gunned down in front of them.
