Answer:
Explanation:
Mr Mukund Padmanabhan interviewed Umberto Eco. The interview extract gives us an insight into how Umberto Eco feels about being interviewed. Eco, one understands does not get perturbed while being interviewed. He was comfortable, confident and at ease when he was being interviewed. He was ready to furnish answers to the questions asked. Also, he elaborated on everything and furnished more information than was required.
He readily discussed his philosophical and academic interests, his fictional and non- fictional styles of writing and why he considered himself a University Professor. He also shared with the interviewer his secret of time management and how he used to utilize the empty spaces in his life called 'interstices' that enabled him to pen down staggeringly large amount of literature. He very candidly spoke about his experience of his trials and errors which he faced during his first Doctoral dissertation. He spoke openly about his novel “The Name of The Rose” and was humble enough to admit that it was a mystery to him as to how the novel became successful. His tone was friendly and at no point did he seem to be ruffled about being interviewed.
Hope that helps best of luck !
