Shirley Jackson, on the other hand, primarily makes use of names to stress the theme in her story, “The Lottery.” Although Jackson focuses mainly on names, she does incorporate the use of one object as a symbol of great importance to the theme. Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Young Goodman Brown" and Shirley Jackson’s "The Lottery" are both excellent examples of works which use symbolism, a literary device, throughout the plot in order to support the theme. Hawthorne uses the names of his characters as symbols. Although other examples are available in both works, Faith, Goodman Brown, and Mr. Graves are the most prominent between the two
28th December 2012 Wider reading course essay Compare and contrast how Golding and Cormier develop the theme of power in ‘Lord of the Flies’ and ‘The Chocolate War’ There are many ways in which I can compare and contrast Robert Cormier’s book, The Chocolate War, and William Golding’s book, the lord of the flies. One way is the similarity of the characters desire and will for power. For example in the lord of the flies, Jack, from the very start, wanted to be in charge He is strong-will and is the novel’s primary representative of the instinct of savagery, violence, and the desire for power. From the beginning of the novel, Jack desires power above all other things. He is furious when he loses the election to Ralph and continually pushes the boundaries of his subordinate role in the group.
In this extremely thorough and exhaustive passage, we see the methods that Steinbeck uses to present the character of Candy. One of Steinbeck’s most renowned, all-powerful methods is repetition. For example when Candy says: “I seen her give Slim the eye” twice to George. Steinbeck is loosely showing how Candy is a scandalmonger, and finds entertainment in unfounded rumours. Furthermore, it could also indicate Candy’s malefic side if at all he had one.

“One of the values of Speculative fiction is that this genre bears witness to what it is to be human; that humans have strengths and limitations” Evaluate this statement The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson (1886) and The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde (1891) are both late Victorian speculative fiction novellas, which bear witness to what it is to be human during the modern era. Both authors have speculated upon their own society and have created a mirrored society within their work. These texts display the speculations from the authors of the Victorian society influencing and impacting humanity. As a reader, we are questioned what it means to be human; does our society determine and shape who we are? These questions are brought to the surface throughout these speculative fiction novellas.
The use of repetition in lines 3-4-31-19 “come buy,” “come buy” is significant because it represents the overwhelming temptation that must have been felt by Laura/Eve. Line 471 is significant because it continues the biblical allegory by depicting Lizzie as Laura’s savior with the words, “Eat me, drink me, love me”, which alludes to Christ’s words in the book of Matthew; “Take and eat this it is my body.” Even though “Goblin Market” seems to be a story right out of the Bible its use of imagery and symbolism suggest a much darker meaning. The use of imagery in the first thirty-one lines are significant because it creates this dark under world of drug pushers attempting to pedal any and every type of drug imaginable; revealing the dark side of human nature (temptation/weakness). Lines such as (47) “come buy,” call the goblins hobbling down the glen.” “Come buy, come buy: Apples and quinces” and it goes on to list another twenty-six delectable fruits. This use of imagery is significant because it helps the reader visualize a drug dealer/goblin men hobbling down the glen; on the street trying to pedal drugs/fruit.
The Problem In order to lay the foundation for ethel’s as a fun, approachable member in the communities where the lounges are located, Interpret-Her was asked to develop a creative solution to build community buzz among the local chocolate lovers and identify businesses which target ethel’s same market, and who might represent a good “partner” for cross promotion and referral.

I feel the lexical framework is important because a well known feature of British comedy is the use of word play, and hidden, sometimes smutty meanings. It is due to “the richness of the English Language,” that gives a “great scope for wordplay.” (1) Equally intrinsic to British comedy, I believe, is a grasp on current affairs in society, hence the importance of the discourse and pragmatic frameworks. Evidence of this is found in the sketch, ‘The Word Gay’ by Fry and Laurie, as it is based upon a prevalent change in the society of the ‘80s. Also
Discuss the respective artistic attributes of the Print and Film versions of Austen’s Sense and Sensibility endorsing your partiality in a comprehensive manner. Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility and its Adaptation by Emma Thompson The intricate and complex nature of human feelings always mesmerizes artists. Hence, they tend to explore them through their works of art. Jane Austen (1775-1817) was one of the most revered female authors in the English literary arena who explored both human nature and the society in which humans dwell in and according to Prof. Eisha Hewabowela “Sense and Sensibility (1811) is an extensively memorable narrative about two very different siblings, namely, Elinor, the calm Dashwood daughter full of prudence and good sense, and her younger sister, the impulsive, passionate and pretty Marianne who is very close to the older sister” (Hewabowela 1). Like Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen’s novels are comedies of manners that depict the self-contained world of provincial ladies and gentlemen and they often revolve around the delicate business of providing husbands for daughters who are at the marriageable age.
