In Hard Times by Charles Dickens, the scene in which the characters discuss the depiction of horses on wallpaper and flowers on carpets is the author’s way of showing the absurdity of believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life.

Explanation:

Charles Dickens’s "Hard Times" is a novel that revolves around the story of the people of Coketown and how philosophy was taken as the basis of their lives. The story deals with themes of femininity, fact and fancy, mechanization of human lives, marriage, industrialism, etc.

In Chapter II, we see the discourse about the importance of "Fact, fact, fact!". Mr. Thomas Gradgrind's statement that they are not to fancy anything, including putting a quadruped on the walls or flowers on the carpet all seems to show how philosophical the school's teachings are. Cecelia Jupe, who admitted that "[she's] very fond of flowers" is contrasted by the school's teaching as well as Mr. Gradgrind's "board of fact, composed of commissioners of fact, who will force the people to be a people of fact, and of nothing but fact."

This scene is shown or included by the author to show how absurd the notion of how only facts should govern life.

on my last

hey there

use of language is very important in order to write in a good way. each literary genre has its different exploitation of language and, therefore, many differences and similarities can emerge. shakespeare's work (romeo and juliet) is a sample of a drama. its language is full of dialogue to describe the beauty of first love in people; everything it's pink color. it briefly describes fictional scenes and situations. on the other hand, the calypso borealis, by john muirs, it's narrative essay: its language is full of descriptions to describe an experience, a real experience. hyperbole is not used as in drama genre. he falls in love with discovering a real place and his direct feelings.

hope this !

f yes, , mark brainliest : )

have a good night.
