What trait typical of the romantic era is featured in washington irving’s short story "the devil and tom walker"? the emphasis on individual choice the emphasis on human optimism the emphasis on the beauty of nature the emphasis on the importance of society

I believe the correct answer is the emphasis on the individual choice.

The trait typical of the Romantic era is featured in Washington Irving’s short story "The Devil and Tom Walker" is individual choice. In Romantic era, man is in the center of world, he is a free being with the free choice. This short story is about Tom Walker who sells his soul to the devil in order to get the buried treasure and he and his wife hoard things from each other, things that should belong to both of them and be shared by both of them. This story is regarded as a Faustian tale, the tale of characters showing their greed and selfishness.

"everyday

use" was written by alice walker. this is a story about two sisters, dee

and maggie wanting to have the handmade quilt. maggie wants to use the thing

for its purpose, while dee appreciates it for being “her heritage”.   the quilt represents family heritage. it was

believed that only dedication and years of hard work can represent a  quilt. 

mama decided to give

the quilts to her less fortunate daughter, maggie because she believed that dee

could not hold the true meaning of their family heritage and   that she would not use the quilts for their

purpose. however, dee believed that maggie can’t appreciate the quilts just as

how she sees them, and she thought that the quilt will be put to “everyday use”

by maggie and within 5 years or so, the quilt will turn into a rag. in the story, dee strongly believed that maggie do not deserve the quilts.
