By having a character named his dog and his frog after andrew jackson and daniel webster, two prominent 19th century american politicians, mark twain depicts the west as a place of:

Irreverence and humor.

Explanation:

Mark Twain's "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" is a satirical story about how the narrator was led to listen to a story about some 'animals' and their extraordinary qualities. The story shows the humorous story of these animals and their owner who would bet on anything.

By giving the names of the dog and frog as Andrew Jackson and Daniel Webster, the author is depicting the American West as a place that has no respect and just humor.

Andrew Jackson was the President of the United States who was tough and had a rumble way about him. Just like his namesake, the dog Andrew also was tough. He would be slow in the beginning but began attacking his opponents towards the end, winning the bets and gaining more money for his owner.

Daniel Webster was a great orator and an American statesman who was extremely intelligent. Twain may have named the frog to show the intelligent power of the frog, in relation to the other frogs.

In attributing these two names for the name of the animals, Twain may be depicting the American West as a place of irreverence and humor.

i dont ❤❤

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?
