I don't think there is a movie about it, if there was though that would be scary! I've read the book.

Anyway, at the end it creates suspense and surprise at the end with the banging and opening of the front door because the mother just wished her son was alive, and since the monkey's paw turns every wish you make horribly wrong you would expect the son to come back as a zombie or something, at least not the son she remembered!

Rumors, superstitions, or propaganda can replace reason with irrational hysteria

Elza [17]

Answer:

<h3>Agree.</h3>

Explanation:

Yes, rumors, superstitions, or propaganda can replace reason with irrational hysteria when groups of people get together because <u>reason gets undermined when a particular rumor, superstition or propaganda is believed by the majority.</u>

This can be seen in many past as well present instances where baseless claims or propaganda have swept people in great confusion and misunderstanding.

When groups of people start to believe in a particular rumor, superstition or propaganda, <u>the society as a whole eventually start to accept them as facts</u>. Also commonly known as mass hysteria, the general masses fail to reason with facts and create a hostile environment around them.

One of the many examples would be the Soviet propaganda in U.S during the Cold War ear which have caused mass hysteria among the citizens of the country.

what is ironic in the words used by the narrator to describe the summoner in "the prologue" to the canterbury tales. Youd meet n

Dafna1 [17]

The ironic thing in the words used by the narrator to describe the summoner in "the prologue" to The Canterbury Tales is:

<u>The Summoner was corrupt and was ready to forgive a transgression for a cup of wine</u>

According to the complete text, we can see that the Summoner is trying to convince a transgressor that he would allow him to keep a concubine if only he gave him a quart of wine.

As a result of this, we can see that the ironic thing is that the Summoner is supposed to be a church excommunicator who is sent by the Archdeacon to expunge people who committed offences against the doctrines of the church but he was willing to accept a bribe so that he would not do his job.
