It was dirty and he refused it, when he saw the insert of it he through it on the floor and stomped on it as he knew that it had been passed down for 11 years and he knew that when it was dirty it got passed down to a ‘Nigra’ as it said in the insert.

Upon watching Jackson’s The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey I couldn’t help but notice some differences between the character I had imagined from reading the book and the character portrayed by actor Martin Freeman.

Bilbo is a Baggins who are considered “very…respectable, not only because most of them were rich, but also because they never had any adventures or did anything unexpected” (12). However, there is more to Bilbo than meets the eye as he is also part Took who are “not entirely hobbitlike” (13) due to their knack for adventure. Initially the movie portrays Bilbo accurately when he encounters Gandalf the wizard and politely declines his suggestion for an adventure, “Sorry!

He was holding a large leather bound book in both hands in front of him. Eden built suspense and tension by taking off his hat and walking slowly downstage. He read the first words, “It was nine thirty on Christmas Eve” in a very quiet and monotonous voice. This was comic as the audience had been expecting a dramatic opening and it immediately defused the tension which had been built. At the end of the first speech the Actor was interrupted by a shout from the other performer who is in the audience.

Young Romance Depicted in “Araby” I chose to write this paper on James Joyce’s “Araby” because I found the narrator’s childlike quest for ideal or fairy-tale love in this short story interesting. Joyce’s dark and gloomy tone at the beginning hints to the reader that this tale is not a typical romance between two young lovers, but more of tragedy. In paragraph two he really sets the dark mood of the story when explaining the priests former house before he died, “The former tenant of our house, a priest, had died in the back drawing-room. Air, musty from having been long enclosed, hung in all the rooms, and the waste paper behind the kitchen was littered with old useless papers” (Joyce 21). As you can see this story is not about young, dreamy love or affection, but about a boy coming to a realization that his idealistic desires for the opposite sex were childish and foolish.
