Which strategy is a way to determine an author’s perspective in a text?

Answers

Read with attention to see if it stated explicitly or if it is implied at any given point. It can also be projected in the way the story develops and its conclusions.

There are also good questions that will help you identify the author’s perspective; for example:

  • What is the motivation behind writing this text?
  • What is the overall idea behind key characters? how are they depicted? what does that represent?
  • Why does the author choose the places he does, the characters, their language, their appearance?

The development of the story can also give you an idea of the direction the writer wanted to take with the text.

Asking yourself questions related to motivation, choices and idealism found on the text and analyzing what you find after all of this, will help you understand the authors perspective, it sometimes can be about a specific subject or several things
Identifying the setting, main character, and plot, taking special note of rising action, climax, and denouement noting the main character's conflict, primary goals, and motivation, then drawing a conclusion.

Compare the difficulty Shelley has with the reason her companions give up on their efforts?

Answers

One of the difficulties that the men have with writing a ghost story is that they prefer to write in verse since they are all poets. Writing in prose is very difficult for them. Mary finds that humorous. She is the only female there and since there weren't too many published female authors at the time, she finds it ironic that she is the only one who finishes the story.
