Read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game." some wounded thing, by the evidence a large animal, had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson. a small, glittering object not far away caught rainsford's eye and he picked it up. it was an empty cartridge. "a twenty-two," he remarked. "that's odd. it must have been a fairly large animal too. the hunter had his nerve with him to tackle it with a light gun. it's clear that the brute put up a fight. i suppose the first three shots i heard was when the hunter flushed his quarry and wounded it. the last shot was when he trailed it here and finished it." which literary elements are used in this excerpt? check all that apply. characterization mood conflict foreshadowing irony imagery

answer: a: they can affect the author’s perspective and in turn the theme and purpose for the writing.

the author's background and time period greatly affect the text that the author produces. this is because we are all a reflection of our time period and background. depending on where and when we were born, we will find some questions more important than others. for example, if we are a wealthy person born in medieval times, we will most likely be interested in courtly love and stories of knights and honour. however, if we are born in the 20th century in africa, we might instead focus on colonialism and its effects on the newly liberated countries. the theme and the purpose of writing are both affected by these conditions.
