PLEASE HELPP! 30 POINTS What point of view is used in “Was It a Dream?” How would a different point of view change your understanding of the character? In one to two paragraphs, explain your answer.

The point of veiw in "Was it a Dream?"  is in first person, the main character acts as the narrator, giving the whole thing in direct speech.The story begins with him saying " I loved her madly". If it was in a different point of veiw you would know what is going on all around you not just with one person. You would know someone elses point of veiw on how things happened. You would possibly figure out more information on whats going on.

The understanding would change if there was a different point of veiw by not knowing what the main character now is thinking. We wouldn't even know what is going on with our main character now. We would possibly have more questions on what is going on?

Explanation:

the illustration   that would give a reader a clear understanding of the text is a picture of men constructing the frame of a building.the frame is made of iron bars. the text describes the job of blacksmiths'. these were very organised and they had different names: "the driver" and "the heater". the text describes the way in which these men worked ; they worked iron pieces as if they were playing a sport. in fact, the text wants to show the men's skills. the text also puts some emphasis on the use of '' rivets'' in construction. this kind of nails were not always used in the construction of manhattan.

some examples:

"and with an underhand toss he hurled the smoking rivet straight at the catcher, who caught it in mid-air in his catching can." men's skills

"when the driver was ready for a new " the emphasis on the rivet ( special nail used in construction).

" it against a beam to remove any cinders, and jammed it into the waiting hole. " the emphasis on the rivet.
