Answer 1

Answer:

The old man’s point of view is obsolete, conservative and narrow. He admits that thousands of men were killed in the battle of Blenheim. His father’s house was burnt down and he had to flee with his family. He had no place to take shelter. The war caused ruin and destruction in every part of the country. Still he boasted of the victory of the English over the French and repeatedly called it a ‘great’ and ‘famous’ victory. It is ironical to say that though thousands of men died in the war, it was a great victory. Thus the old man’s point of view is conventional and outdated

When the young children wanted to know all about the war and asked the old man what they (the English and the French) fought each other for, the old man boasted of the victory of the English over the French and replied that it was a great victory. When little Wilhelmine told him that war was nothing but a wicked thing he weakly asserted that she was wrong and that it was indeed a . ‘famous victory’. The old man’s reply failed to satisfy the young children because their response to war was natural and instinctive whereas the old man’s response to war was conventional and outdated. Thus the old man’s conventional point of view failed to satisfy the young children.
