A CONNECTICUT YANKEE IN KING ARTHUR;'S COURT (CHAPS 31-32)
Manage episode 348173090 series 2354662
These two chapters are a little slow so have some patience-Twin is trying to give us some lessons in economics- that being that one dollar in one economy might be considered very little- yet in another that same dollar is considered a fortune. Think of the North vs The South in the Civil War, In the south, a wheelbarrow of paper money was worth next to nothing, while in the North, a couple dollars could buy you some clothing. Hank (the Boss) could be a hero and a bum at the same time- and Chapter v32 is a good example.
Chapter 31- The Boss (Hank) and his host Marco stroll through a village and Hank is fascinated by the way Marco treats different classes of people. Then Hank invites other tradesmen to dine at Marco's house. Hank claims the King is a farmer named Jones
Chapter 32- At the dinner Hank spends money like there is no tomorrow in the eyes of those present-To them 4 dollars seems like millions. Their economy still has a long way to go.
