How do Monsieur Hamel's actions contribute to the development of both the theme and main idea within the story?

Explanation:

The actions and inactions of Monsieur Hamel, contributed to the development of the theme and main idea itself within the story since he was more concerned and bothered about showing the students that despite the circumstances, they should have it at the back of their minds not to let the lessons they've learned go to waste.

In one of the paragraphs, it states something like this

"Thereupon he turned to the blackboard, took a piece of chalk, and, bearing on with all his might, he wrote in the largest letters he could: “VIVE LA FRANCE!”

As we can see, Monsieur Hamel does not want the students to feel discouraged, rather encouraged about the new life that they'll be going into. He intends to make them not forget anything and everything and also for them to continue in their learning of the language, French, that is.

overnment is strong when they have the ability to persuade those they govern to believe government has enough power to force them or should be forcing them to do government’s will.

when enough of the citizenry do not believe government can force them or should force them to do its bidding, government has lost or will lose its strength and power to coerce.

when enough of the citizenry do believe government can force or should force them to do its bidding, they become passive at the least or actively pro-government and repeat government’s own rhetoric to pass on what they have been persuaded by government’s propaganda.

a true majority isn’t always needed to govern or to stop government. many times all that is needed is a strong minority. if a determined 30% of the population rises up against government in a concerted effort to bring it down, this size minority usually will succeed as long as those actively opposing the minority are less in force than the minority. so if 41% of the population sits at home watching tv rooting for one side or the other, they don’t matter. it’s the active parties who make a difference.

there is no paragraph seven here.
