Need help answering some questions about the play, "The Contrast," by Royall Tyler. I cannot seem to get a good grape of what is going on in the play:
How does Tyler address the following questions. Answer ALL with evidence from the text to support your points.
1. How is the American different from a European?
2. How does this difference make him a "new man" on the face of the earth?
3. What does his unique identity offer the world?
4. What did his unique identity offer the new nation?
5. In what ways does Tyler judge the "American man" as better than the European?
