    personally believe that steinbeck uses slim being pragmatic to show that even the best of people in the 1930s had to make tough decisions due to the political and economic climate of the time being so harsh and unforgiving - he has to make tough decisions as he is aware of the other possibilities if he doesnt

    Slim is a very influential figure to me, I consider him to be one of my heroes.. it’s chilling how this story of the past fits in with skilled trades. My foreman started calling me slim.. I’ve been called a lot of things and had many nicknames that don’t stick, I hope this one does.

    Hello ma’am. I like your videos a lot and watch them before every exam, they’re very helpful. Could you please do an analysis of Harrison Bergeron?

      I’m glad to hear my videos help! Unfortunately, I have no plans to create videos on HB. At least not for the next year.

    Hi Mrs, what do you mean by Steinbeck creates Slim to promote his anticapitalist beliefs. Thank you so much.

    • @mrsrumsey
      @mrsrumsey  2 года назад +3

      Slim contrasts with Boss and Curley. He is a natural leader and a moral character, which emphasises the Boss’ and Curley’s artificial power and their cruel nature in comparison. Through Slim, who represents the idealised American cowboy, Steinbeck wants to stress how capitalism goes against the natural order of things where cruel men with no natural talent (Boss and Curley) are at the top of the hierarchy.
      I hope this helps!

      @@mrsrumsey Thannk you so much for the swift reply. Quick question. If you had to predict the character for Edexcel IGCSE English Literature in the Summer 2022 Exams, as well as the Anthology texts in Paper 1 English Language A, what would you say.
