Question
use the paragraphs from an occurrence at owl creek bridge to answer the question.
peyton farquhar was a well to do planter, of an old and highly respected alabama family. being a slave owner and like other slave owners a politician, he was naturally an original secessionist and ardently devoted to the southern cause. circumstances of an imperious nature, which it is unnecessary to relate here, had prevented him from taking service with that gallant army which had fought the disastrous campaigns ending with the fall of corinth, and he chafed under the inglorious restraint, longing for the release of his energies, the larger life of the soldier, the opportunity for distinction. that opportunity, he felt, would come, as it comes to all in wartime. meanwhile he did what he could. no service was too humble for him to perform in the aid of the south, no adventure too perilous for him to undertake if consistent with the character of a civilian who was at heart a soldier, and who in good faith and without too much qualification assented to at least a part of the frankly villainous dictum that all is fair in love and war
which point of view does the author develop in these paragraphs? (1 point)
third - person narration, limited to farquhar
third - person omniscient
second person
first person
- First - person uses "I/we". Second - person uses "you". Here, the text uses "he", so it's third - person.
- Third - person omniscient knows all characters' thoughts. But the text focuses on Peyton Farquhar's thoughts (e.g., "he chafed", "he felt"), so it's limited to Farquhar.
