Answer 1

Answer :

By the expression ' fame is food that dead men eat ' we mean that fame is something that is achieved only after a person's death . We say this because many great people , who really have had a great amount of talent in them were never given fame when they were alive . They have only got the so called fame after their demise . Be it Emily Dickinson or John keats ; got fame only after their demise .
