Literature Themes and Symbolism Symbolic representation
In "A Meeting in the Dark," the motif of the lion-demon most likely represents
A. Being trapped between two worlds
B. self-hate
C. the foolishness of old age
D. Christian values
I am super confused about this!! I am going between A and D because the whole theme of this story is of John being trapped between two things, but i don't know if the "lion-demon motif" represents that. It might be that the lion-demon represents the Christian values that would swallow John up if he marries Wamuhu and what he has done comes out. I really need help on this! PLEASE!
I can confirm boo's (spooky) answers as correct for Honors English 10 A "A Meeting in the Dark" Part 2
Oof this was confusing because of the clashing opinions, but yes A: Being trapped between two worlds is correct!
Boo is correct, i can confirm

So is choice 'A' really the correct answer?
I have read this, but A makes the most sense to me. It's hard to see how a lion or demon could represent Christianity.
