In Act 2 Scene 3, Don Pedro and Claudio are well aware that Benedick is hiding and listening to the conversation, so they speak poetic blank verse which is suitable for the love obsessed characters which they are pretending to be. The audience may find this funny, and Shakespeare has included this impersonation to create a comedic effect. Until Act 2 Scene 3, Benedick is presented to the audience as a man who is clearly in love, but very much in denial. His apparent misogyny and unwillingness to make a commitment to a woman are almost stereotypes near the beginning of the play. His use of language, especially in his "merry war" with Beatrice, prevents him from being the clichéd male who refuses to commit to a relationship.
When Benedick says he does not like the dish, he is being disrespectful not only to Beatrice but to the people of the time. He also states that no woman will be let in to his perfectness until the woman is perfect herself. Benedick loves teasing people but will not accept the fact that people tease him. Shakespeare illustrates benedick in more detail which allows the audience to understand what type of character
We gain an understanding of his character as we read more about him, ‘he smiled happily’, and this is a childish description of such a ‘huge man’, we wouldn’t expect someone so ‘huge’ to act childish. Steinbeck presents Lennie’s character as a benevolent one, this seems to derive sympathy from the readers because it makes them feel apologetic towards him and appreciate him. Due to the foreshadowing events which were accentuated throughout the novella, it is clear that Lennie's dream can never be accomplished and we actually feel sympathy for him as he does not intend to hurt others, Steinbeck makes it apparent that Lennie is in the grip of a powerful ability (immense strength) that he has no control over, which leads to the death of many. (Notice how the death of the species he kills tend to get larger) and the readers can understand the deep innocence of this character as he did not mean to kill Curley's wife in section five. We know this because he began to 'cry with fright' and he knows that he has done ‘a bad-thing’ because he is aware that he has done a bad thing; this enlightens the readers that when Lennie senses danger, he feels threatened and becomes very dangerous.
The audience is initially memorized by the Brutus they love, and are grateful for the ‘honorable acts’ he committed. This element of coercion helps him achieve his intentions of blindsiding the people to all aspects of the truth. But no worries, Brutus’ kind friend Antony will be sure uncover all and nothing but the truth for the commoners to second guesses Brutus’ words. 2nd Textual Quotation: “If, then, that friend demands to know why I rose up against Caesar, this is my answer: it’s not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more. Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men?...Who is here so rude that would not be a Roman?
His name even means “the fool”. A Shakespearian audience would traditionally be accustomed to Fetse being known as the fool. However a modern day audience wouldn’t agree. Feste “liked to expose the vain, mock the pompous and deliver a few home truths”. Through this depiction it is clear that Feste is not a fool all but rather a character who is clever, witty and insightful.
His response was for “a little sentimentality, and for old time’s sake.” His words are deceiving being that he really keeps them for inspiration, and possibly a back-up plan when he can be comical no more. Even the look on Connie’s face wasn’t fooled with his explanation. The admiration and respect for Davey Farber kills Al inside; it’s not hard to connect the dots. Every time he looked at the un-submitted scripts, the viewer could tell that Al was walloping in self-pity and drowning in his own failure as head writer. Sammy Hogarth on the other hand, is a self-centered comedian who basically runs his entire show, and bullies all of the staff surrounding him.
This disappointment could suggest that Larkin writes in a negative way, if he has even at the begging a different opinion than the majority has while expecting a lovestory or an intimate scene in setting of a bed, but definitely not a confusing, stressful scene as Larkin explores. While Larkin is saying “easiest…honest”, he is using the terminology of contrast. The suggestion of his as a negative writer is now proved. On top of it is confusing for the audience, who tries to get over the first stanza of the poem an impression of what you will be expecting and again Larkin disappoints them. It might also suggest that Larkin criticse the society for thinking in the boxes and expecting everytime the usual as thinking ‘talkinf in bed ought to be easiest’.
The author does this to give Henri a new level of respect from the reader after him being ambushed for painting horribly. Steinbeck writes these two paragraphs as one huge juxtaposition.“Also he was not really a painter... But as a boat builder he was superb.” (Steinbeck 3,18). The two paragraphs have two different tones toward Henri, one making him seem like he had no talent for painting and that he was even too busy to paint, but the other with much more respect and appreciation. This makes reader understand the character more in depth with two different sides to the
O'Brien creates an intentional paradox for his readers when he writes the violent, but grabbing story of Rat Kiley and then at the end of the story, tells the reader that the characters and events of the story did not happen just as he described them, but that they happened in a totally different way to other people. But he insists that the story is true. With this, O'Brien challenges the reader to discover the truth of the event. O'Brien gets the reader to figure out what fiction of this book is actually worth. Firstly, did O'Brien confuse the reader when he said that the events did not happen after the reader became involved in those events?
How could she, without over-narrating, get a deep problem involving such characters when they do not speak enough to reveal that problem? Frome's character and his marital relationship are at the heart of the novel, but they are revealed only indirectly. Wharton solved her difficulty in a masterful way by her use of imagery and symbolism. It is in her use of imagery and symbolism that the depths of the story are to be found. Without an understanding of them, a reader would find the characters unmotivated and the tragedy contrived.
