   confirmed
   and fortified her suspicions; the aunt by assertion; there were

   Answer
   the following questions and do the given assignments:

4. a)
   1.
   What
   made the boy commit the offence thus bringing the punishment
   upon himself? 2.
   What
   was the aunt’s method of bring­ing
   up the children and what did it result in? How are the ideas of
   punishment
   and pleasure treated in the story in general? 3.
   Had
   the trip
   to the sands any appeal to the boy and what did he think of the

5. 170

6. pleasures
   promised by the aunt? What is his idea of a «treat»? 4.
   The
   author
   calls the boy «a skilled tactician» and not for nothing.
   What strategy
   did Nicholas work out to get into the lumber-room unno­ticed
   and leave it without trace? 5.
   At
   the same time the author evaluates
   the aunt as «a woman of few ideas with immense power of
   concentration».
   How does this feature of her character define her actions in the
   story? What motivates her actions —
   strong
   faith or false
   piety? 6.
   The
   lumber-room in spite of its dust and desolation came
   up to the boy’s expectations. What role does the lumber-room play
   in the evaluation of his character? 7.
   It
   was a kitchen-maid who
   came to the aunt’s rescue. What was wrong in the family that made
   its members so indifferent to each other? 8.
   For
   what reasons were
   the members of the family silent at tea that evening? Why does
   the author lay special emphasis on the cause of their silence?

7. 9. How
   did Nicholas manage to fight the aunt with her own weapon
   and
   finally disarm her? Speak on the conflict between the boy and
   the
   aunt: a) Does the punishment of the aunt at the hands of Nicho­
   las
   suggest anything to you? b) On what issues are they opposed?

8. 10. Speak
   on the story in terms of unchangeable conventional real­
   ity
   versus poetry and intellectual freedom. 11.
   On
   whose side do
   the author’s sympathies lie? Based on your
   interpretation of the
   story say a few words about the author.

9. b)
   1.
   In
   what vein is the story written? 2.
   What
   are the butts of the
   author’s irony? What does he ridicule through the character of the
   aunt? 3.
   How
   is irony achieved on a verbal plane? How does the ironic
   intention of the author affect his style (wording and syntax)?

1. Is
   the vocabulary employed by the author in keeping with the
   sub­ject-matter
   or out of place? If it is out of place what is the author’s
   criteria
   for word-choice? Account for the frequent use of a) military terms;
   b) religious words; c) judicial phrases; d) scientific arguments.

2. Is
   the author straightforward and direct in presenting the charac­ters
   and telling the story or is he evasive and ambiguous? What is the
   device
   he resorts to, when saying: «a woman of few ideas»,
   «prisoner in
   the rain-water tank», etc.? 6.
   How
   does the syntax contribute to the
   ironic effect? Is it formal or informal, bookish or colloquial?
   What turns
   of a phrase strike you as formal and pompous? What are the
   grammatical constructions favoured by the author? What does the
   story
   gain through them? 7.
   Besides
   verbal, there is dramatic irony that
   lies in the story, the plot, the complications of the story, the
   rela­tionship
   of the characters. Say something about the story, the turns
