Prejudice is a preconceived opinion or judgment that is formed without adequate knowledge, rational argument, or understanding. It is an unjustified or incorrect attitude (usually negative) towards an individual or group, based solely on the individual's or group's membership in a particular social category, such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or other group characteristics. Prejudice often leads to discrimination, which is the unfair treatment of individuals based on these preconceived biases. Prejudice can be based on stereotypes and can manifest in both subtle and overt ways, influencing social interactions and creating inequalities within society.

To provide an accurate answer to the question "Describe what the author defines as a stranger," I would need to know the specific context or the text in which the author defines the term "stranger." The definition of a stranger can vary widely depending on the author's perspective, the genre of the writing, the cultural context, and the purpose of the definition.
For example, in a sociological context, an author might define a stranger as someone who is not part of a specific social group or community, and who is not familiar or known to the members of that group. In literature, a stranger might be a character who is new to a particular place or situation and whose background and intentions are unknown to the other characters and possibly to the reader as well.
Without the specific text or context, I can only provide a general definition: a stranger is typically someone who is not known personally to another individual or group. They are unfamiliar and may be perceived as different or outside the social or cultural norms of the observer. The concept of a stranger can also carry connotations of mystery, potential threat, or curiosity, depending on the circumstances.
If you can provide the text or context in which the author defines "a stranger," I can give a more precise and tailored answer.
