28 The Lady, or the Tiger? Frank R. Stockton

29 Meet Frank R. Stockton (1834-1902) At the height of his success, Frank R. Stockton was considered a major literary figure in the United States, second in importance only to Mark Twain. Stockton’s body of work fills twenty-three volumes and includes stories, novels, and nonfiction. Yet today, this writer is known primarily for his story, “The Lady, or the Tiger?” The story created a stir at the time it was published, as well as afterward; it was later turned into an operetta, a play, a movie, and a recording. The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton

30 Connecting to the Story Would you trust your life to a friend? Before you read the story, think about the following questions: Which is a stronger emotion—love or jealousy? How completely can one person ever know and understand another? The Lady, or The Tiger?— Frank Stockton

31 During the Middle Ages in England, guilt or innocence was decided through a practice known as an ordeal. An accused person was physically tested, and the outcome determined guilt or innocence. The accusers believed that supernatural forces controlled what happened. For instance, in the ordeal by water, the accused person was tied up and thrown into deep water. A person who floated was thought to be guilty; a person who sank was considered innocent. Unfortunately, those who sank often drowned before they could be hauled back up. The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton

32 BIG IDEA The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Matters of Life and Death As you listen to this story, notice how the characters value life and death in different ways.

35 Why do the king’s subjects enjoy the life- or-death trial? The uncertainty is exciting. The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Why does a life-or-death trial appeal to the king? The king enjoys putting people at the mercy of a heartless and whimsical fate and uses this cruel spectacle to teach his subjects a lesson. AFTER YOU READ

36 The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Recall and Interpret (a) In the kingdom described in the story, what happens when a person is accused of a crime? (b) Why do the members of the community support this method? (a) The accused person must choose between two doors concealing either a tiger that will kill him or a woman who will marry him. Chance governs his choice. (b) They find the trials exciting and entertaining, as well as fair, since the accused made the choice.

37 AFTER YOU READ The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Recall and Interpret (a) What is the young man’s crime? (b) Why are his actions considered criminal? (a) Loving the king’s daughter (b) His low position in society made him an unworthy suitor.

38 AFTER YOU READ The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Recall and Interpret (a) What does the princess do when the young man is in the arena? (b) What motive does she have for sending him to his death, and what motive does she have for saving his life? (a) Gesture toward the right (b) Jealousy; true, unselfish love

39 AFTER YOU READ The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Analyze and Evaluate Why do you think the story ends with a question instead of an answer? To invite readers to ponder the conflict between love and jealousy.

40 AFTER YOU READ The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Connect In what ways is the king’s justice similar to flipping a coin to decide an important question? In both cases, chance alone determines the outcome.

41 AFTER YOU READ Conflict The Lady, or The Tiger? —Frank Stockton Why is the princess’s internal conflict so central to the story? Her decision governs if the young man lives or dies. Your view of her will affect your choice of resolution. What conflicts does the young man have? Are his conflicts internal or external? Support your answers with details from the story. External: which door to open – possibly facing the tiger Internal: whether to believe the princess LITERARY ANALYSIS Literary Element
