ML 37
 * Reread pages 51-52 in Candie, focusing on the 'slave' passage.
 * Identify and EXPLAIN one example of irony in the passage. - One example of irony is that even though Candide has more riches than the King of Spain, he doesn't give one fraction of it to help this poor slave that was in such a bad state that he gave up his optimism.
 * What is Candide's reaction to the situation and WHY is it significant? - Candide has no reaction, or in the very least, a very false one. This is not the first time Candide has changed his mind about optimism, and I believe that this scene in particular has nothing important to do about Candide's beliefs. However, as I said Candide has no reaction for the slave, which is even more significant because it can be viewed that Candide himself is the cause of misery to someone else, thereby contradicting his idea of optimism.
 * Have you ever encountered a situation or idea that significantly changed your outlook on the world? - No, throughout my life there have been no situations that significantly changed my outlook on the world. There have been small changes day by day, but none that gave me a complete paradigm shift.
 * Explain the situation or idea and how your outlook changed.
