Question
Both Voltaire in Candide and Swift in Gulliver's Travels employ innocent or naive main characters for their tales. In your opinion, why would both authors have chosen this type of main character? Support your conclusion.
Solution
VerifiedBy using innocent characters with no real objectionable characteristics, the reader is more easily able to sympathize with them and lament over the situations they find themselves in. The reader wants such characters to succeed because they have done nothing to deserve the suffering they endure.
