He starts having to struggle with fear, discomfort, and isolation. This marks a shift for a man used to having an always pleasant life. Still, he's hopeful at first that the doctors can get rid of whatever condition it is that's bothering him and restore life to normal. Ivan becomes isolated from he world around him. All that seemed to matter before stops mattering. Ivan's death forces him to painfully re-evaluate his own life, illustrating Tolstoy's belief that only death can reveal life's meaning. When he says "Death is finished," he is referring to the spiritual death that has characterized his whole life. It's the final moment of realization, and the one that brings everything to a conclusion. Ivan sees that his life was wrong. He actually tries to figure out why he wants to live, and realizes the very life he's been wanting to go back to all this time has been not so great. Perhaps he hasn't lived his life as he should. After, he feels compassion for his family, and recognizes that by dying he can at last do them a service. Now he's ready to die, and even happy to do it. No more tension.
The question above does not present the text to which it refers. This makes it impossible for me to show you an answer. However, I will show you how you can find the answer you need.
First, you will need to read the text to which the question refers. This reading will be able to show you how the bank clerk is behaving, his thoughts, and the emotions he is expressing. This will be able to show you the emotional state of that character.
This because:
- Emotional state refers to how the character is mentally.
- This state is revealed through the behavior and the way the character is expressing his feelings.
Thus, if the bank clerk is acting calmly and expressing feelings that reflect this tranquility, it is because he is in a calm emotional state.
Otherwise, if the character is sad, expressing anger, or any other negative feeling, it means he is in an equally negative emotional state. Likewise, if he displays happy behaviors, expresses joy, love, and any happy feelings, it means he is happy and positive.
