Question

Theme of chapter 2 Mrs packletide's tiger class 10

Answer 1

The theme of Mrs. Packletide's tiger by writer Saki is 'satirical' .

Satire is a literary work which aims to attack the prevailing negative aspects of human nature while using irony, sarcasm and humour. The intention of a satire is to bring about improvement in society or in individuals.

The story revolves around three women who are suffering from wrong attitudes. Mrs. Packletide's jealousy, the hypocrisy Loona Bimberton and the greed of Louisa Mebbin are all expressed satirically (in a humorous, ironical and sarcastic way).

Hope it helps. Cheers!
