The Most Dangerous Game
In the short story The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell the author presents many kinds of different conflicts and events in short story to enhance the mood. Example of there can be see in many places in the short store of man vs. man this is between to character of the story. This can also include two of the main character and also between to enemies, man vs. nature this is when a character is fighting the nature to survive or to get somewhere on time, man vs. society example of this can be seen as when the society dont agree with you or with your idea, man vs. self- this is when the person is not sure of himself what he wasnt or what he want to do. These are used by the author in story to bring more interest in it. Also these are used to help build up every character in the story.
The first one in the short story that shows up is man vs. nature which is the basic cause to the other in the entire story. In the story the reason do to why man vs. nature is first or comes is that because of the nature the character got in problem and ended up falling in the ocean looking for his pipe that had fell. The darkness makes it hard for him to see and then he ends up making him unstable and fell in the ocean too. But rainsford had surviving the natures test, but then in the story rainsford get to the island but is not sure of to where he really is because of the darkness and he describes it as the moist black velvet.
Then as we move on in the short story rainsford faces man vs. self. Rainsford was secured of dead because he didnt want to face reality that to the islanders he is just a target and need to be treated like it to. Thats the main purpose why he is secured and is afraid to know what they will do to his body. But to islanded hes just fish that got in there hands and they want to use it and will abuse it to if need it. Which makes a internal conflict because thats what comes to his mind every time he think of what will happen to him. Also that makes him even more secured of even wanted to know what the reality is. So he wants nothing to do with it which will remind him off the future.
This brings us to Man vs. man, when rainsford relies that theres no way out of the sudation he is in then he thinks and relies that he has not man choices to pick from. Either he can give his shot to fight the islanders and see what happen or he can give up to the islanders and get hunted like animals and kill him. This is man vs. man and also can be but in man vs. society because he has no other way of getting his freedom. This is because he doesnt have any support to get his freedom and if he fight to get his freedom then hes fight man vs. man and also can be put in man vs. society.
In the short story the author show different types of conflicts to enhance the reader an to show the story from many different angles. Then he also shows how many types of conflicts can occur just because of one erroe or because of one simples mistake.
