“Greed leads to evil.”  Write a composition to show the truth of this statement using illustrations from John Steinbeck’s The Pearl

  • The doctor declines to treat Kino’s child, Coyotito, of the scorpion sting because he has no money (has only small worthless pearls).
  • The pearl buyers are out to take advantage of Kino and his pearl.  Their goal is to cheat him and ruin his plans of happiness and peace for his family.
  • The doctor comes to take advantage of Kino’s ignorance by making Coyotito sick and pretending that his illness is the result of the scorpion sting.  He pretends as if he does not know of Kino’s pearl, yet the only reason he has comes to treat Coyotito was to try and seek out where Kino might be hiding it.

Discuss how the author of the novel has used symbolism — The Pearl by John Steinbeck

25/8/2018

0 Comments

 

EXPECTED RESPONSE

Symbolism is a useful tool in story telling because it helps the author add a deeper meaning to the story.
Kino views the pearl as the blessing of a lifetime. At first the pearl is a symbol of freedom. Kino and his family could finally be freed from the oppression of poverty and a meagre existence. This means beautiful wedding for his wife and education for his son.
