Question

In 300 words or less, explain how the external conflicts in “The Most Dangerous Game” create an internal conflict within Sanger Rainsford. (not too detailed please)

Answer 1

Positive, But Not At The Same Time.

The external conflict is between Rainsford and General Zaroff. This conflict is most clear when Zaroff is hunting Rainsford. Rainsford, in order to live, must outwit Zaroff. This is an obvious conflict. There was also a lesser conflict as Rainsford resisted Zaroff's efforts to get him to be a hunter.

The internal conflict is within Rainsford because he is being hunted. He has to fight with himself to keep himself from being defeated and giving up. He feels as if his situation is hopeless and that makes it extremely difficult to keep fighting.
