Mixed Literature Trivia Questions

1. Who authored the book "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life", published 24th November 1859?

From Quiz
FunTrivia Literature Mix: Vol 13

Answer: Charles Robert Darwin FRS

Darwin proposed that all species of life have descended over time from common ancestors, and put forward the theory that this branching pattern resulted from a process known as Natural Selection. Although his theory was accepted in his own lifetime, there were still people who refuted this many decades after his death and in parts of the U.S. it was illegal for a teacher to teach his theory in schools.

Question by player Traveller1982

2. The Spanish author, Cervantes, wrote this work in the seventeenth century about a single-minded knight who goes on a quest that leads him to duel with windmills.

From Quiz FunTrivia Literature Mix: Vol 12

Answer: Don Quixote

The tone of this work is mock heroic and satirical, dealing with an idealistic but somewhat simple-minded knight who goes on a quest to duel with windmills (under the impression he was battling giants). The work's full name is "The Ingenious Hidalgo Don Quixote of La Mancha", and it was published in two parts.

Question by player swimmgirl

3. Agatha Christie dedicated her 1969 novel, "Hallowe'en Party", to which other author, the creator of the character Jeeves?

From Quiz FunTrivia Literature Mix: Vol 11

Answer: PG Wodehouse

Agatha Christie's dedication in "Hallowe'en Party" reads: "To P. G. Wodehouse, whose books and stories have brightened my life for many years. Also, to show my pleasure in his having been kind enough to tell me that he enjoys my books." The feeling was mutual. Agatha Christie and PG Wodehouse corresponded with each other in their later years. In the last letter she ever wrote to him (January 14, 1975), a month before Wodehouse died, she said: "One eats and drinks what one likes, - occasionally short periods resting in bed and reading one's favourite books like those of PG Wodehouse."

Question by player MotherGoose

4. In "Moby-Dick; or, The Whale" by Herman Melville, where did Moby-Dick live?

From Quiz FunTrivia Literature Mix: Vol 9

Answer: Ocean

Bearing the real full title "Moby-Dick; or, The Whale", "Moby-Dick" is the tale of an all-consuming desire for revenge, even to the loss of one's life. It contains one of literature's most famous opening lines, "Call me Ishmael." In a famous Hollywood movie version, Gregory Peck plays Captain Ahab, who is driven to kill the whale that was the cause of his loss of a leg. The story is one of the great 19th century American novels about character flaws and strengths.

Question by player mehaul

5. Morgan Robertson's novella "Wreck of the Titan" bears many striking similarities to the sinking of the RMS Titanic. Why is this so surprising?

From Quiz FunTrivia Literature Mix: Vol 8

Answer: It was written before Titanic sank

The story was written in 1898, 14 years before Titanic sank. The story describes a state-of-the-art passenger liner named the Titan that sinks after colliding with an iceberg in the Atlantic during an April night. Massive casualties ensue due to an inadequate number of lifeboats. The eerie similarity between the events of the story and the real Titanic disaster have kept interest in the novella alive.

Question by player H0lyAerith

7. Which role in Shakespeare's plays is most often portrayed by black actors?

From Quiz FunTrivia Literature Mix: Vol 6

Answer: Othello

Othello is described as a Moor, which in Shakespeare's day could refer to any of a number of tribes living in North Africa, or to Muslims in general. But there are numerous scenes in the play which describe him as having a dark complexion and African features, so black actors are often chosen to play the part. "Othello" isn't the only play by Shakespeare to have a Moor as a character; they also appear in "The Merchant of Venice" and "Titus Andronicus".

Question by player daver852

8. What are the two cities referred to in the book title, "A Tale of Two Cities"?

Answer: The War of the Worlds

'The War of the Worlds', about Martians who invade London, was said to have led to a widespread panic that Martians were invading the earth when Orson Welles presented it on the radio.

10. What is the name of the squire sidekick who accompanies Don Quixote on his misadventures through Spain in the Miguel Cervantes classic?

After reading several romantic tales of knights wandering the countryside righting wrongs, Don Quixote determines he must do the same.

Most have been based on historical incidents, such as the Matabele Wars of the 1870s ('Men of Men'), the independence of Zimbabwe ('The Leopard Hunts in Darkness') and the Sharpeville Massacre ('Rage').

21. Margaret Mitchell refused to write a sequel to her 1936 book "Gone with the Wind". It was not until after her death that her estate authorised Alexandra Ripley to write one. What was it called?

From Quiz What Next?

Answer: Scarlett

From Quiz 23rd-Century Literature

Answer: Moby Dick

In the 23rd century whaling will, hopefully, be viewed with complete abhorrence, and Herman Melville's "Moby Dick" will be completely changed. Captain Ahab will be charged with animal cruelty.

Ishmael, the cabin boy, will be hailed as a hero for alerting the authorities to the Captain's deviant behaviour.

24. This is a work of both fact and fancy. Most likely composed in the 8th century and written down 200 years later, it is the oldest surviving epic in British literature.

From Quiz A Miscellany of Literature

27. In 'Macbeth', the three witches met at 'a desert place'. In 'Wyrd Sisters', the three witches met on a storm-lashed hill. However, both sets spoke the same opening words - what were they?

From Quiz Things Are Getting Wyrd

However, in 'Wyrd Sisters' the 'eldritch shriek' of "When shall we three meet again?" was answered in a more normal voice by "Well, I can do next Tuesday."

28. "The Time Machine" tells of a man that went far into the future. While there, he meets two different races; one race lives on the surface while the other lives under the ground. Name the two different races of H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine".

From Quiz Mixed Literature
