Answers
Answer:
The relationship of man and land as depicted in the story "How Much Land Does a Man Need ?" is a mystical connection with their root.
Explanation:
The question is asked from the story How Much Land Does a Man Need? which is written by the famous story writer Leo Tolstoy. The land a man may require is to bury his coffin.
The relation of man and land:
There are two characters whose perceptions and attitudes are taken into consideration to understand the importance of the land for both.
One is the peasant named Pahom and the other are the Bashkirs. Pahom, in his greed wanted more and more land and had a materialistic way of looking at land, whereas Bashkirs were wise enough to look at the land in a very traditional way.
At the end, Pahom loses both, the land and his life. So, the author in that context says that a person needs only that much amount of land, in which he could be buried easily after his death.
