Firstly though, what do I mean by the 'broken frame'? This is a reference to the idea that

Europe celebrated at least 17 festivals annually, not counting family occasions and saints' days. Some festivals, such as Carnival, lasted several days or sometimes even several weeks. In the Netherlands Carnival started every year at the 11th of November (St. Martin) and culminated in a big festival of 'Dranck, pleijsier ende vrouwen' (Drink, fun and women) at the end of the Carnival period, preceding the period of Lent.

The job they should be referring to is the horse running away from predators and eating. The horse does not have the human passion to work and love.

The rich could catch any animal of their choice, while the poor could only catch smaller animals, such as hares and rabbits. These disadvantages forced the poor to have more creative sources.

Joyce, is a short story about a young boy trying to find and his search for inner happiness. The main setting takes place in the boy’s neighborhood where he lives with his aunt and uncle.

crude appearances of the street performers caused by society’s need for abstract stimulation. The acrobat is physically and mentally drained from performing straining and exhausting tasks for the gratification of others.

At the end of the story the overseer asked why the hunger artist did what he did and
article, “Anarchy in the UK: ‘70s British Punk as Bakhtinian Carnival”, Peter Jones illustrates that the British punks in the ‘70s were trying to redefine themselves by covering their bodies with tattoos and piercing and symbolically wearing dog collars to showcase how society viewed them as animals.
