the thought process which could not be said in a normal conversation . This speech to the audience can be in the presence of other characters in the story plot but since it is one’s inner thought , they can not hear it. Shakespeare uses this method to advance his plot in almost every play he ever written. The soliloquies function to advance the plot ,reflect inner thought and create the atmosphere of the play. The soliloquy was a technique used by playwrights to give insight to what

I am not going to figure out Harry Potter because I still haven’t read the last two books (oops). In another book I’ve read called The Infernal Devices series, a character named Jem is addicted to an opiate called yin fen. Without the drug he is weak, and unable to do his job (killing demons). With the drug, he would slowly die at a very young age. This book is set in Victorian England, and a

Hero’s in literature are arguably “someone who is willing to sacrifice his own needs on behalf of others” (Vogler, 2007, pp. 29), for example Christopher from The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time (Haddon, 2003). However there are examples of those who subvert this notion, Baxter from ‘The Lepidcotor’ (Jackson, 2005) for example and Richard from I Am Legend (Matheson, 2010) who does it for his own gain. A characters traits, attributions, motivations and desires take part in their ability

Eric Larson in his novel the “Devil in the White City” masterfully exercises several rhetorical devices and storytelling strategies. The story itself centers on the Chicago world fair and the two greatly influential men who roamed Chicago at this time. The intrepid architect who pulled it all together and against all odds puts on a fantastical fair the likes of which will never be seen again. The other a prolific serial killer who used the chaos of the fair to catch, kill, and dispose of victims

Through the course of the English 1102 Folklore In Video Games class, I not only gained exposure to the analytic exploration of video games, but developed as a reader, writer, and presenter. While playing video games in an English class was a refreshingly different experience, learning how to analyze these games and showcase my knowledge through multimodal projects and presentations were the major takeaways from this course. Additionally, the included artifacts emphasized both individual responsibility

Commonly, a novel is either a plot driven novel, a character driven novel, or a mix of the two. In order for a novel to be character driven, it must revolve more around the characters’ individual thoughts, feelings, and inner struggles, rather than around the quest of the story. Great Expectations, by Charles Dickens, is a character driven novel. While the story does have a plot, it is not contingent upon that plot, but rather is reliant upon its characters and their natures. This is evident from

Testament comes into play-in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. From that point on, the plot thickens as the characters battle to find order hidden amongst worldly turmoil. Throughout the Old Testament, each character struggled with the underlying issue of “making meaning from the chaos of experience, the human condition” (Mobley 2). However, many fail to realize that these people and plot twists of the biblical stories commonly reoccur time after time throughout history. In The Return

Hence, it can be said that it is the character’s emotions that drives the development of the plot. Shen Congwen’s Border Town can indeed be considered to be such a lyrical novel. Border Town was depicted to be a ‘dreamlike’
