Question

charecterization for treasure island​

Answer 1

Answer:

The protagonist of Treasure Island is a boy whose family owns the Admiral Benbow inn, presumably somewhere in Scotland. Jim is used to having a certain amount of responsibility at the inn, where he helps out his father and mother, but he’s still not quite prepared for the adventures that await him on board the Hispaniola. Jim, however, is naturally clever and quick-witted: he is able to think fast and hide from danger when he needs to, such as from the pirates on the road or in the apple barrel on the ship deck. At the same time, Jim has a streak of the rebel’s attitude and finds it difficult to always accept authority—even if he tends to feel guilty about breaking the rules later on. Robert Louis Stevenson portrays Jim as a special but not superhuman boy: he cries when he becomes overwhelmed, for instance, and must deal with the fear and confusion that arise from his adventures. As an adventure story “for boys,” Treasure Island creates a main character who is relatable but also, when thrown into exciting, extraordinary conditions, proves himself worthy of them.
