Question

suggest the qualities of a gentleman,according to A.G. Gardiner

Answer 1

A J Cronin uses the title of William Shakespeare's famous play,The Two Gentlemen of Verona in an ironic manner. Cronin's portrayal of these modern "gentlemen" of Verona re-defines the concept of what it means to be a gentleman, Cronin shows us that one may polish boots or sell newspapers, but it is the greatness of heart and the nobleness of purpose that actually determines whether one is a true "gentleman". The position of the boys, their misfortunes and their proper behaviour is enough to show this.

 

Answer 2

According to Alfred George Gardiner, a gentleman should be civilized and must obtain western culture and the customs. He thinks that one should shake hands instinctively to greet individuals, and it is most evident that it looks natural with higher pride.
