Write a careful analysis of how Tolstoy establishes Kitty's central character traits. Your response should be 1–2 paragraphs and be supported with details from the text.
In this passage, Tolstoy establishes Kitty's central character traits through her interaction with her baby and the nurse. Kitty is shown to be a caring and attentive mother, as evidenced by her concern for the baby's health and development. She also demonstrates a tendency to worry and become anxious, which is evident in her need to constantly ask the nurse questions about the baby's progress. Additionally, Kitty is shown to be somewhat naive and sheltered, as she is unaware of the existence of women who nurse their own children. Overall, Tolstoy paints a picture of a young, inexperienced, and caring mother who is still learning about the world around her.
