The main conflict of Their Eyes Were Watching God occurs in _____. Eatonville, Florida Janie’s mind Pheoby’s imagination the Eve
GalinKa [24]

Answer: The right answer is Eatonville, Florida.

Explanation: Although part of this story by Zora Neale Hurston takes place in the Everglades (Janie and her third husband live for a period of time there), I would contend that the main conflict occurs in the city of Eatonville, since it is there where the story begins, with a confident and exultant Janie returning home, but without her husband. The townspeople start speculating about their relationship and her husband's whereabouts, and they soon distrust her, but her friend Phoebe believes in her and she listens attentively as Janie recounts the true story of what happened - which also gives the reader an opportunity to know about the story of her life.

Read the excerpts from "The Monk's Tale."
Tpy6a [65]

A theme that Geoffrey Chaucer develops through these two excerpts is that of treachery, since both King Peter of Spain and King Peter of Cyprus were betrayed and their lives ended tragically. King Peter of Spain was betrayed by a man named Bertrand, who had agreed to protect him in exchange for a great compensation, but who eventually handed him over to his half-brother, Henry, who promised him an even greater reward and who assassinated Peter in his tent in 1369, becoming the new king. This is narrated in the excerpt, where Bertrand is compared not with Oliver of Charlemagne, friend of Charlemagne, but with the knight that betrayed him ("No, Oliver of Charlemagne... such a trap!").

Peter I of Cyprus devoting his short yet intense life to fight Islam, and he led the short yet devastating Alexandrian Crusade, but his life ended abruptly. Betrayed by his wife and by some of his closer knights, he was assassinated in his bed also in 1369. This is also referred in the poem ("That conquered Alexandria... on thy bed!").

To sum up, both excerpts revolve around this theme, which they present very similarly: after emphasizing the deeds of the two historical characters, they finalize by regretting their tragic endings.
