...most helpful answer!? The following questions I answered are based on the short story, “How Much Land Does a Man Need?” By Leo Tolstoy. Can you please check for grammatical errors, check to see if my answers make sense and if needed, please make it sound more appealing by enhancing and editing it. Please feel free to make any changes you want to make it sound better.
3(a) How does this tale blend realism with the fantastic? (b) Would it have been as effective if the tale were entirely realistic or entirely fantastic? Explain your answer?
--> The poverty of the Russian peasants forms the reality of the story, while the effort that the protagonist puts forth for his greed and its eventual consequence are the fantastic elements. (b) In an entirely fantastic or realistic world, the scenario that Tolstoy describes could not occur. The fantastic element of the story is that a person could keep walking until he dies. In reality, a human being would probably collapse and be unable to continue somewhere before death.
1) Look again at the information on the Faust legend on page 860. In both Faust and Doctor Faustus, the protagonists openly bargain with the Devil in their quests to attain knowledge, experience, and power. Based on this information, what differences can you see between the role of the Devil in these works and in Tolstoy’s story?
--> The Devil plays an actual comical character in both Faust and Doctor Faustus while in “How Much Land Does a Man Need” the devil doesn’t reveal himself. In “How Much Land Does a Man Need” the devil completely affects the outcome of the story without directly doing anything to Pahom. Even though the devil did not ever specifically interact with Pahom, without his indirect influence, Pahom would not have developed his obsession with making money and collecting land.
only the sentences starting with the arrows.
can you please provide me with a corrected version and please try to make it more appealing. thanks
