In the light of ghandis lamp. why does the jailer approach anita years later and ask for coffee?

The jailer approached Anita years later and asked for coffee because he wanted to make friends with her and probably, he realized the importance of "human dignity" when he heard her life's story and her singing while in jail.

Explanation:

The "Light of Ghandi's Lamp" is a story about the "apartheids'" struggle against the authorities such as the Police in Johannesburg. The story focuses on the capture of Anita and the narrator's (Anita's brother) thoughts on how she was doing in prison.

The narrator went to the station to know about her sister's condition and to tell them about how good of a person and sister she was. There he met Anita's jailer who looked gentler than what he imagined. Later on, he realized that the jailer actually lied to Anita about many things. He tried to destabilize her emotions but Anita counteracted it by singing songs and talking about her life. With these, Anita and Richard were sent home.

the first proposition is to question economic materialism and victorian christianity. the lines are:

“it moves us not.—great god! i'd rather be

a pagan suckled in a creed outworn; ”

wordsworth is stating that nature no longer interests mankind, that the latter is not “moved” by it and explains that ancient western paganism had a more positive attitude concerning nature since it lacked the perv erted judaeo-christian interpretation of having received the world and all its animals and elements from god to use as we , instead of humans actually being not only part of nature but its wardens, meant to appreciate it and protect it.

the next lines are:

“so might i, standing on this pleasant lea,

have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;

have sight of proteus coming from the sea;

or hear old triton blow his wreathed horn.”

wordsworth here make it very clear that by actually looking and contemplating nature, human beings would reconnect with happiness, serenity and purpose. the use of mythological figures is quite evocative as well, proteus is a greek mythological god of the changing sea. he personifies the sea that changes, which symbolizes the way nature changes and inevitably can change to be destructive not only due to natural causes but to human pollution. furthermore, the sea is even more symbolic since all life originated in the sea so it is not only our past but our future since no life form in our planet can survive without water and if all water is destroyed in earth all life will be gone as well.

he then uses triton which is symbolic of the synthesis of both nature and mankind. triton is a mythological greek god that has the upper body of a man and the lower body of a fish (a merman). this human fish duality evokes the fact that humans are not only human but also part of nature, the fish tail representing nature. the main attribute of this god was that he used a conch shell as a horn to calm the roaring seas. in other words, triton uses nature through science for the benefit of human sailors who risk death during tempests. with the use of such metaphor, wordworth is conveying the message that human technology   is supposed to use nature to preserve nature and thereby humanity as well.

go i think this should he the answer i'm not sure
