Answer:

In his short fiction "The Three Strangers," Thomas Hardy explores the issue of identifying the party guest who is a criminal. The tension of the narrative as well as the concepts of justice and appearances misleading will all be discussed in this lesson.

This short story exemplifies the literary style of Thomas Hardy in that it takes place among rural residents inside the borders of Wessex, the fictitious name he gave to Dorset and the counties that surround it in the southwest of England. It is hilariously recounted yet has profound insights into the language, customs, and sense of community among the locals. Wessex Tales (1888), in particular, has a number of Hardy's short stories that deal with the "rustic chorus" that appears in his best-known works. Many of these stories take place in the past and are purportedly passed down through two or three generations. They are remembered for some peculiar circumstance or person.

Explanation:

the theme of Thomas hardy the three Strangers:

Like Charles Dickens before him, Hardy was enthralled with public executions and the legend that developed around them. Another Wessex Tale, "The Withered Arm," which makes the idea that touching a hung man's neck may heal certain illnesses a prominent theme, reflects this legend. Even Tess of the D'Urbervilles (1891), his most famous book, culminates with Tess's hanging, an event inspired by a childhood recollection. Contrary to Dickens, Hardy did not question the reasons behind the crimes that resulted in hanging or object to the execution's technique. The furthest Hardy will go politically in "The Three Strangers" is to imply that there is a great deal of compassion felt for the prisoner who has escaped because one feels that sheep stealing does not warrant such a harsh sentence. However, punitive expulsion to the colonies, the standard option, is not mentioned. Hardy makes no attempt to offer commentary on the social and economic factors that caused folks to starve. The situation's hilarity is highlighted by the prisoner's daring, the hangman's coincidence with his presence, and the brother's discovery of him in trouble.

In the Southwestern English community of Upper Bockhampton, Thomas Hardy was born on June 2, 1840.

Charles Dickens was born on Friday, February 7, 1812, in Landport in Portsea.

They both held opposing ideologies, including

(i)Dickens criticised the assumption that people were used as machines for industrial production while writing about the disastrous repercussions of industrialisation.

(ii) When discussing how Oliver Twist exploits youngsters and orphans, Dickens raised his voice.

(iv) Thomas Hardy outlined the benefits and drawbacks of the new system.

(v) Thomas Hardy wrote in vernacular languages spoken by several ethnic groupings.
