Question

write the short summary on the story happy prince

Answer 1

The story is allegorical to the social class system of Victorian England—the wealth of the upper classes versus the impoverishment of the poor.The statue of the prince has its jewels delivered to the poor via the swallow (now, on top of the hill, the prince can see the poverty that had previously been shielded from him). Eventually the statue loses all its material wealth; he is richer inside for helping the needy, but no longer outside, and the swallow dies. The people remove the prince statue, now that he is plain, and discuss the next statue that will replace him, because material wealth is most important to them.
