It greatly influences the story, what will happen in the story, and what theme the story will communicate. The extremely solid characterization of the two main characters, Doodle and his brother, leads to the finale, which communicates the theme. The clear mistakes made in the story, like the excessive and unsupervised rehabilitation of Doodle, that occur because of the characters characterization, really show the reader what the main characters did wrong, and shows that to the reader not to do it either. After all, as it is said in the story, “Pride is a seed that bears to seeds; life and
He has witnessed knife fights, an experience that will later help other jurors change their opinions about the guilt of the accused. Juror #6 is a housepainter, a man who is used to working with his hands rather than analyzing with his brain. He is more of a listener than a talker. He does, however, stand up to the bully, Juror #3 when he speaks rudely to Juror #9, an old man, threatening to hit Juror #3 if he ever speaks to the old man like that again. Juror #7 is a slick, obnoxious salesman whose only concern is to get the deliberations over quickly so he can get to that evening’s baseball game.
A “Sophoclean hero” is a headstrong character that is willing to face the worse to attain his goal. This particular hero is always in need for peace even if it means breaking the laws and relies on principles. Antigone fought all the way for the pride and respect of her brother. She proved that she was capable of anything, even death. Creon is not a heroic character despite his excess on many aspects.
He had never given me insult.”However in his mind the old man’s evil eye had provoked him for a very long time and he finally had to kill him to get rid of the eye. Tenhet 2 The narrator is very paranoid and, maybe he thought the eye saw who he really is, He is a crazy man. He is not the calm and
Even when people are treating him bad, he still just keeps his head high and acts like a gentleman. I remember especially one point in the story, where Bob Ewell spits in Atticus’ face and actually threatens to kill him, but all Atticus does is to wipe his face clean. When Bob then threatens to fight him, Atticus just puts his hands in his pockets and says that he’s too old to fight. That part of the book kind of amazed me. To have the self-control and respect to just walk away from someone who just spit on you, is a skill that not many people have.
Fonda is constantly in a conflict between jurors three and ten. Both of these jurors had stereotypes and were close-minded to the possibly of the defendant not being guilty. Juror number three was the hardest to convince, he was very aggressive and argumentative to his case, but was also stereotyping the boy because it reminded him of his son. Jurors, three and ten, had a controlling style of conflict, they use bullying when other members gave input against their opinion. However, members like the old man, juror nine, were more open minded and interested in what Fonda had to say.
He is fat, “bad-looking”; it is that which leads to the boys’ lack of respect for him. Also his asthma, weak eyes and thin hair are all common afflictions of old age. Throughout the novel his glasses are used to symbolize intellect. These all help prove his role as an old, supposedly, wise person because usually the elder are looked upon for reason and order. It seems that his physical weaknesses and characteristics are all consistent with the adult role he is made to play.
The point is that an alcoholic not in recovery should be nowhere near a young child or in any committed relationships until sober. The novel is also peppered with horrific flashbacks of abuse at the hands of Jack’s father. Because of the trauma he experienced, it is as hard for Jack to be a normal father as it is for a normal father to strike his son; quite difficult. “In those days it did not seem strange to Jack […] that his own love should go hand-in-hand with his fear […]” (http://www.shmoop.com/shining-stephen-king/family-quotes-3.html). This quote is a perfect illustration of how Jack’s sense of what a relationship should be like is irreversibly altered.
