He really lets you see the beautiful things in something so dark and creepy. Burton’s actions like bullying and judging people for what they look like on the outside and also what they are able to do. He reveals in his film that judging people and bullying can really hurt someone utilizing close ups and lighting to really show expressions on people’s faces when they meet Edward those two cinematic techniques also show what people feel when something happens in Edward Scissorhands. Burton uses close ups in order to express emotions when people are talking. When he uses close ups it really helps convey
Definitely not. But is the pattern of the wallpaper interesting and confusing? Probably yes. The author’s use of the first person to convey the story allows readers to go along for the ride into madness and cultivates a certain amount of sympathy for the narrator and her plight. The constant use of "I" puts us right in the narrator’s head and allows us to empathize with her.
The experience created through language establishes a uniquely graphic story that initiates a personal response to society. Thus, our and understandings of society can be enhanced and extracted through elements of distinctively visual. Many composers use various techniques to shape our individual perception and interpretation through the experiences and opinions of others. Through the hardship of war, sexism and the importance of relationships, this notion is depicted within John Misto’s play The Shoe-Horn Sonata and the related poetry Vergissmeinnict by Keith Douglas which demonstrates the hardships of war, Suburban Sonnet by Gwen Harwood which demonstrates sexism and South of My Days by Judith Wright. A common occurrence
What do people believe about it? The original purpose of “The Lottery” was to demonstrate the act of violence and bullying in America. In a way, I believe Jackson was trying to approach her audience in a personal way by introducing a familiar atmosphere for readers to relate to such as the ‘small town’ setting. By doing this, Jackson’s audience realizes and takes notice of the violence in your own environment. With Jackson’s writing style, it makes readers feel involved into the story and helps us visualize abuse in short, dense sentences when Mrs. Hutchinson is beaten with smooth stones.
At the beginning of the play, we get an introduction which fulfills the audience's previous views of Cleopatra. Philo explains, "Nay but this dotage of our general's o'er flows the measure," and "to cool a gipsy's lust" lull the audience into a false sense of security before severely disrupting it and playing with their ability to make judgments. The juxtaposition of scenes contributes a significant amount to the complexity of Cleopatra's character. Also the combination of love and war is tightly knitted together to form an interesting contrast. The dramatic form reflects the chief thematic concerns of the play.
As Eunice is used to present a wider background for the play, she also presents the society at the time, and sometimes voices the audience’s opinions, for example, after Stanley beats Stella, Eunice’s speech is punctuated with many ‘!’, showing hers and, furthermore the audiences, shock at the violence. Compared to the violence between Stanley and Stella in Scene 3, Williams portrays Eunice’s ordeal to be less dramatic and more normal, showing that as the play has progressed that domestic violence was a regular occurrence in the 1940’s. Furthermore, Williams has used Eunice to also enforce the submission of women during the set time period, using the alcohol Eunice drinks after the beating by Steve to portray this; alcohol in A Streetcar symbolises a means of escape from reality, mainly used by the protagonist, Blanche DuBois. By presenting Eunice to be drinking alcohol conveys the idea that she can’t cope with her relationship with Steve, and uses alcohol to escape it, much like
She uses onomatopoeia many times during the text to describe the “Rat-tat-tat-tat” sound that the gunfire made to make the reader better imagine what it was like to be there at that time. It also helps shift the audience toward her side of the coin so to speak, in that it creates a harsh reality of fear for the reader which is unexpected from such a small sound. Chang also uses climax in her writing during the chapters so that at the middle of every chapter the reader feels that they reached the worst of the violence and tragedy and it also hooks them into wanting to read more to find out what the next big thing is that will happen in the next chapter. Chang uses hypophora in the beginning of the text to inform the reader of what kind of things they will be educated on regarding the Rape of Nanking. This is shown to its full extent on page nineteen when she lists many of the questions first time readers might have about the
Compare the way that Lady Macbeth, the protagonist of The Laboratory, Havisham and one poem of your choice are presented. Lady Macbeth, the protagonist in The Laboratory, Miss Havisham and the woman in the Battered Doll are portrayed as either physically or physiologically damaged causing the audience to be intrigued by their actions, creating a form of entertainment causing the audience to react differently depending whether it was a modern audience or not. The authors present their characters as damaged women using men as a catalyst to ignite their strong emotions towards them. This creates the theme of female dominance, death and a pinch of vulnerability. The result of the actions they have committed or what has been done to them, they react similarly but at different approaches, creating an idea of violence.
Geraldine Brooks' Year of Wonders vividly recounts the effects of the plague on the small English town of Eyam in 1666. Brooks' novel explores the attitude and reactions of both the female and male characters in response to the disease. Brooks generally encourages readers to empathise with the female characters, whilst evoking feelings of disdain towards the masculine community. She achieves this through the deliberate use of the first person narration through the perspective of the main female protagonist, Anna Frith. Furthermore, Anna's narration forces readers to recognise the achievements of the female characters whilst highlighting the barbaric nature of the men.
Through Another’s Eyes: Point of View in “The Yellow Wallpaper” In Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s “The Yellow Wallpaper” the narrator’s point of view through first person narration gives the story it’s truly intrinsic tone. As the reader is lead first hand along one woman’s descent into madness, the fact that this story is to an extent autobiographical further increases the importance and appeal of the first person narrative. The story in itself has a deceiving prose, with the narrator initially appearing upbeat by the use of exclamation marks, sarcasm and humor but revealing to the reader that she is considered mentally ill by the outside world. Gilman’s personal experience with the depression and treatment described in the story undoubtedly comes forth in her ability to narrate “The Yellow Wallpaper” in such a believable manner. The narrator’s delivery from start to finish keeps the reader off balance, thus adding to the frightening style and evolution of the story.
