The small chapters have been divided into three parts all revolving around the life of the protagonist, Lucy Strange. These parts of the book follow a chronological progression through Lucy’s life although within each part the order of events is not chronological. Part one especially is fragmented as it jumps back and forth in time. Although Sixty Lights is cleverly structured with high textual integrity, its worth in the HSC may have been challenged as it is almost over structured, which can lose the focus especially through the jumping of tense of the
Connie slit her eyes at him and turned away, but she couldn’t help glancing back and there he was still watching her. He waged a finger and laughed and said ‘Gonna get you, baby.’(Oates, p.372-73) One can perceive that action into the devil setting their sights on an innocent soul as often read about in the bible, realistically speaking a pervert doesn’t make it so blunt to warn their victims that their next. So you can easily conclude that the author made it so that the character is portrayed as a villain. Coulthard continues her argument in “Joyce Carol Oates ‘Where are you going, where have you been?’ As Pure Realism” that the story should be viewed with skepticism; she illustrates that: “I suspect that the author was seizing upon an after-the-fact opportunity to make her story seem more ‘literary’ than it really is. If so, I don’t understand why, Joyce Carol Oates should have been content to let ‘Where Are You going?’ stand on its solid
‘Men were deceivers ever.’ To what extent can it be argued that Shakespeare’s presentation of men’s attitudes to women in ‘Much Ado about Nothing’ allows for comedy? In Much Ado about Nothing, it can be equally argued that men’s attitudes towards women are actually used for comedy purposes, and it can be argued that their attitudes aren’t. For this argument, the relationship between Beatrice and Benedick at the start of the play can be seen as comical to the audience, as they both claim to dislike each other and take pleasure in making rude remarks to one another. On the other hand, the relationship between Hero and Claudio could be seen as quite dark to the audience, as there are accusations and trust issues between the two. The quote ‘men were deceivers ever’ comes from Act 2 Scene 3 of the play, from the song that Balthasar sings.
In Act II where there is a party in Leonatos house Beatrice talks to a masked man and tell awful things about Benedick to him. “He is the prince’s jester: a very dull fool…” This is telling u that Beatrice knows that the masked men is Benedick but she wants to make him feel bad. After that Benedick explodes and go talk with Don Pedro. “But that my Lady Beatrice should know me, and not know me! The prince’s fool!

Moore uses words like hawk, “wisdom”, unsuspecting, gleefully. Hawk makes a negative annotation of a ruthless swindler who preys on unsuspecting victims, while; using unsuspecting turns citizens into victims of a crime. He uses quotations to imply a sarcastic tone to the word wisdom implying its not real wisdom. The word gleefully makes Fred look like he enjoys preying on unsuspecting citizens. Moore ends his statement “Grow up, get some books, and go to your room.” His word choice implies that Barnes has not grown up and Moore is grounding him for doing something bad as if Barnes is still a kid.
Liz Connolly 11/13/09 Short Story Unit Paper The three major types of short stories all possess their own characteristics and feeling that accompany them and their infamous creators. These three types, being Maupassantian, Checkhovian, and Poe, are portrayed in several short stories that are documented in numerous collections. Though these three genres of stories are very different, none of them can be determined to be better or worse than either of the others. It does, however, depend on how the story is presented and the audience that is on the receiving end. After reading and researching the multifaceted techniques that are incorporated within the Maupassantian style of stories, a conclusion was drawn that this style is
By using short and snappy sentences and question marks Shakespeare shows Capulet’s rage and anger. This can be seen when he says “my fingers itch” and “Is she not proud?” This quote shows us that Capulet has become so enraged that he’d even resort to domestic violence which links in to the social historical context – patriarchy. He owned Juliet and got to decide what would be done with her. Furthermore by using short sentences it shows that Capulet is so angry that he’s ‘thinking out loud’ and all the words are spilling out of his mouth without him even thinking about it. By firing short and rapid questions it shows that he doesn’t want an answer, as he isn’t giving anyone time to reply but also that he doesn’t want to hear an answer which would displease him.
Curley doesn’t dare fight Slim or Carlson, and Candy is too old, so he takes it out on Lennie who he thinks is laughing at him. Steinbeck uses violent words like ‘slashed’, ‘smashed’ and ‘slugging’ to make the fight vivid, as well as describing the blood. He also makes it seem wilder by making PHILIP ALLAN LITERATURE GUIDE FOR GCSE © Philip Allan Updates 1 OF MICE AND MEN Sample essays George yell. He also makes us feel sorry for Lennie and his ‘terror’, which makes Slim get up, as if the fight is going to spread and involve all of the men. (b) The threat of violence is present in Of Mice and Men really from the first moment we meet Curley.
He insults Polonius calling him a Whore-Monger. After this exchange Polonius remarks “Though this be madness, yet there is method in't” (II, II, 204).
