16 Discuss the problems raised in the text "Homecoming”.
1. Hori thinks that the ability to read and write can bring forth evil as educated people may “come to despise the man who ploughs the fields and reaps the barley”. How true is this prediction?
2. For Hori what is written down is not “the real thing”. Renisenb agrees with him saying that “one could write down lies”. They oppose writing about things to producing the actual things. In what way can words become very real and powerful?
3. Hori believes that there is no stability in the world, that everything changes even if there are no evident signs of changes. Is he right or is he exaggerating? Support what you say with examples.
