The butcher dream can be considered a symbol of which psychological structure?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A visible form of inner fear

The governing concept is psychological symbolism: an event or image in a story can represent an emotion that a character cannot express directly. Kezia fears her father because he appears stern, large and difficult to approach. Her mind transforms this anxiety into the frightening image of a butcher chasing her, so the dream gives visible form to her suppressed fear. Option C is therefore correct. The dream is not evidence of the father’s financial trouble, Kezia’s social ambition, or the grandmother’s moral teaching. It reflects the child’s emotional perception and the distance she feels in the parent-child relationship. This interpretation also shows how imagination enlarges fear when communication is weak.
