Answer the following questions, each one with a short paragraph (50 words or so for each answer; 150-200 total words). You can add your answers by clicking on “Write submission”.
1) What is this short story about?
2) Could you sum up Rosso Malpelo’s philosophy of life? What does he think about this world, and about death?
3) Find one example in the story where it is clear that the author employs the “artificio della regressione”, the literary technique I have mentioned in my introductory video: it’s the conscious decision on the part of the author to write with the same voice and mindset of the characters s/he is portraying, in order to make the story seem as close as possible to the reality represented. Can you find and explain a good example of this technique in the text (different from the one I mentioned of course)?
