Jack London was a socialist all his life. He hated capitalism, because it turned humans into slaves. Can we talk of a socialist attitude in White Fang? |

A closed world was the small Indian society where every man/woman was supposed to act for the "progress" of the group. White Fang once inside this group had to learn its laws and apply them as they were if he wanted to be accepted amongst them. After a friendly and obvious exchange of goods, they were supposed to live in peace, completing each other and work for the benefit of this small society. [i]Food and fire, protection and companionship, were some of the things he received from the god. In return, he guarded the god's property, defended his body, worked for him, and obeyed him[/i]. (ch. 5) |
