Essay topics: TPO-08 - Integrated Writing Task
Toward the end of his life, the Chevalier de Seingalt (1725-1798) wrote a long memoir recounting his life and adventures. The Chevalier was a somewhat controversial figure, but since he met many famous people, including kings and writers, his memoir has become a valuable historical source about European society in the eighteenth century. However, some critics have raised doubts about the accuracy of the memoir. They claim that the Chevalier distorted or invented many events in the memoir to make his life seem more exciting and glamorous than it really was.
For example, in his memoir the Chevalier claims that while living in Switzerland, he was very wealthy, and it is known that he spent a great deal of money there on parties and gambling. However, evidence has recently surfaced that the Chevalier borrowed considerable sums of money from a Swiss merchant. Critics thus argue that if the Chevalier had really been very rich, he would not have needed to borrow money.
Critics are also skeptical about the accuracy of the conversations that the Chevalier records in the memoir between himself and the famous writer Voltaire. No one doubts that the Chevalier and Voltaire met and conversed. However, critics complain that the memoir cannot possibly capture these conversations accurately, because it was written many years after the conversations occurred. Critics point out that it is impossible to remember exact phrases from extended conversations held many years earlier.
Critics have also questioned the memoir's account of the Chevalier's escape from a notorious prison in Venice, Italy. He claims to have escaped the Venetian prison by using a piece of metal to make a hole in the ceiling and climbing through the roof. Critics claim that while such a daring escape makes for enjoyable reading, it is more likely that the Chevaliers jailers were bribed to free him. They point out that the Chevalier had a number of politically well-connected friends in Venice who could have offered a bribe.
Chevalier de Seingalt is a famous writer who is known for his memoir about European society in the 18th century, because he met many famous people such as kings. but some people are dubious about the accuracy of his memoir and proposed some reasons which are not quite reasonable themeselves.
First of all, they say Chavelier's claim about being affluent and spending a lot of money in parties is incorrect since he borrowed too much money from a merchant. but chandelier was not poor, he had many valuable assets that had to be sold before turning into money. so he borrowed money at first and then payed the merchant back with the money came from selling his assets.
Secondly, they claim Chaveliers's records about his conversations with well-known Voltaire are not precise since there was too much time betweeen the conversation and the time he wrote them down. However, he had said in his diaries that he wrote down each conversation that day so he would not forget them and they were wittnesses proved who saw those writings.
Moreover, some think his escape from prison of Venice carried out by bribing the jailors, despite his claim about making a hole in ceiling. Although, many other famous and wealthy people were hold in that prison during the same time but none of them could bribe the jailors. Also, the documents from that time mentioned the ceiling had to be reparired after Chavelkers's escape so his claim was true.
