In this lesson, we delve into the essential question: Is the nature of man evil? As we read Saki's short story "The Interlopers," we will analyze the tone, underlying themes, and the author's perspective on human nature. Students will list their initial thoughts on the question, participate in class discussions, and ponder how the story's setting contributes to its tone. After reading, we will explore the title's significance, the quoted line about hate and murder, and compare the characters Ulrich and Georg in terms of their motivations and transformations.
