2014. Document In Clive Hart’s article he expresses his thoughts about how the story “Eveline” is played out through her consciousness as she explores three well-defined stretches of time: her past, her present, and her doubtful future. He also writes about how Joyce demonstrates his mastery form through the story by dividing the story into three distinct parts.

“Story of an Hour” Essay By: Jacob Cooke After reading “Story of an Hour” By: Kate Chopin i have come to the conclusion that this short story was written from a third person point of view. After I had read the short story and came to my conclusion on what point of view it was written I highlighted several examples, and facts that support my thesis. To start off, I’m sure we all know the point of views associated in literature but in case you don’t I will help you understand. Basically there are four types of POV literature POV being short for point of view, the first type is first person point of view which means that the author had to be a direct character within the writing and they clearly establish that fact. The next type is second person perspective which is where the author may refer to the reader as “you” in order to make the reader feel as if they are there or witnessed the event contained in the writing.
Summarise the main points of your chosen reading and evaluate, with reference to other material in the module so far, the extent to which it helps you understand how to identify creativity in everyday language. The term ‘creativity’ is one of a group of terms to describe ‘artful’ or literary language of the type widely recognised in highly respected or profound literature. However, as Swann (2006) demonstrates, such creativity is not only present in literature and poetry, but also in everyday interaction; ‘[the term] creativity is used…to refer to the way people use literary-like features even in everyday discourse.’ (pp12) Three models of literariness are presented by Carter (1999). An inherency model is based on the assumption that there is a clear distinction between everyday language and literary language: ‘According to deviation theory, literariness or poeticality inheres in the degree to which language use departs or deviates from expected configurations and normal patterns of language and thus defamiliarises the reader.’ (pp201) A socio-cultural model focusses on the social and/or cultural background of the communicator as the main factor in determining the literariness of language. Patterson (cited in Carter 1999 pp203) asserts that the concept of ‘literariness’ is entirely historically and culturally variable.
A number of Gothic novels are mentioned in the book, including most importantly The Mysteries of Udolpho and The Italian by Ann Radcliffe. Austen also satirizes Clermont, a Gothic novel by Regina Maria Roache. As well as a list of seven somewhat minor Gothic works, known as the ’Northanger Horrid Novels’ . In the novel Isabella Thorpe claims to have a library of such literature and recommends these books to Catherine Morland. Catherine reads Udolpho during her time at Bath, and it is suggested that she has read similar novels before, the two women plan to further their reading of the gothic once Catherine has finished Udolpho.
