What is the conflict of The Most Dangerous Game?

The answer to your question depends on which part of the
story you're reading at the moment. In terms of a short story, conflict is what drives
the plot; without some kind of conflict, there is no plot. There are several types of
conflict:

• person vs.
  person


• person vs.
  nature


• person vs.
  society


• person vs.
  self


• person vs.
  technology

In "The Most Dangerous Game," you
can find examples of almost all of these types of conflict. When Rainsford and Zaroff
are in the midst of their "game," the conflict is person vs. person. When Rainsford
falls off yacht and has to swim to shore, the conflict is person vs.
nature.

Reread the story and see if you can find other
examples of conflict.
