which narrative point of view is shown in the passage? this anselmo had been a good guide and he could travel wonderfully in the mountains. robert jordan could walk well enough himself and he knew from following him since before daylight that the old man could walk him to death. robert jordan trusted the man, anselmo, so far, in everything except judgment. he had not yet had an opportunity to test his judgment, and, anyway, the judgment was his own responsibility. from ernest hemingway, for whom the bell tolls. copyright 1940 by ernest hemingway first person second person third person limited third person omniscient
Third - person limited point of view focuses on the thoughts and feelings of one character (here, Robert Jordan). The narrator knows Robert Jordan's thoughts (e.g., "Robert Jordan could walk well enough himself and he knew...", "Robert Jordan trusted the man..."). It is not first - person (no "I" narrator), not second - person (no "you" address), and not omniscient (narrator doesn't know all characters' thoughts, just Robert Jordan's).
