| Prompt: Let's see how familiar you are with English authors. In what year did Charles Dickens die? Who wrote Tess of the D’Urbervilles? What was the name of Ebenezer Scrooge’s business partner? Who is the author of Utopia? Who was the 19th-century author of novels about England’s social woes? Do you have a favorite English author? --------- I don't really know any author's exact birth and death dates. Charles Dickens must have died in the 19th century, possibly in the second half of it. Tess of the D’Urbervilles, I think was written by Thomas Hardy. This book was a classroom assignment. Maybe I was too young when I tried to read it, but it was a boring book to me at the time. So what if her husband forgave her! Women always forgive husbands. Why not a husband for a change! Scrooge's business partner must be Marley since his ghost visits him in the beginning. Utopia was by Thomas Moore. Another book I found possibly boring in my young age. I know it from English language classes, but I haven't read it. For the last two questions, my answer is Charles Dickens and I read every book of his. He's probably my favorite, if I don't count the contemporaries. |
