How do the character and background of Emily Grierson differ from those of Homer Barron? What general observations about the SOC that Faulkner depicts can be made from his portraits of these two characters and from his account of life in this one Mississippi town?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Emily Grierson and Homer Barron differ in their social status and their creations. While Emily is a young man from the upper class who was raised with luxury and refinement, Homer is a young man from the lower class who was raised with limited resources.

Explanation:

Emily's family has wealth and influence, she is a young woman from high society, mediated and educated, who was created that all the luxury that her family could offer. Homer however, is a boy from a poor family and has to work on the sidewalks to survive. He was created with few resources and no luxury, in addition, the opportunities in his life are limited, since he has no influence or lives with those of high society.

From these reports we can say that Faulkner shows how a society presents people from totally different lives who have their own battles and difficulties.
