The Sea Devil setting

Answer 1

THE SEA DEVIL

This action packed tale rivets the reader's attention despite a lengthy rising action and a drawn-out life-and-death struggle between the man and a devil ray. The main conflict is between civilized humanity and primitive nature. The author introduces the conflict with a deceptive sense of harmony and oneness with nature. The climax of the story finds the man embroiled in a life or death battle with the ray. He is just able to escape with his life as his fate seemed to be sealed. There is an ironic image at the end of the tale. Just as the man has escaped, a plane flies high overhead--a suggestion of mankind's superiority over nature. The same image also paradoxically suggests the ultimate insignificance of civilized people's achievements and the precariousness of their existence in a dark, unsympathetic universe. Perhaps the greatest lesson learned by the protagonist at the end of the story is that, despite all the progress of civilization, we should not take the kindness of primitive nature for granted.
