Across Five Aprils Jenny Creighton Analysis

What are characteristics of two women from different stories have in common. Each lady lived in different geographic area from one another, but both stories had shown the similar reflection of their lives style back to that early century. Miss. Emily from “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner was a single woman who grew up in a wealthy family and was the only child of Griesons. However, Emily was unlucky person. She did not enjoy her life that much as the family’s business was in trouble and the father died too soon. As he left her alone and with nothing, petty Emily was heartbroken and afraid to face with some of her father obligation. At that time, she also found the lover that people thought he could help her

An investigation on the use of ink and charcoal as a medium, as well as movement over time, in the Time Series by Patricia March.

Unlike Ed, her “hot tempered” nature and her inability to empathise with her son, has meant that she is unable to adapt to the demands of Christopher’s social barriers. This is evident in a letter in chapter 157 where she states “ Maybe if things had been differant, maybe if you'd been differant i might have been better at it. But thats just the way things turned out”. The repetition of ‘maybe’ demonstrates the initial complexity of human communication which in Christophers case, was further complicated by his social demands. Through Mark Haddon’s incorporation of a letter in this chapter, the difficulties in human communication is shown as his mother has resorted to indirect communication in explaining her reasoning for his abandonment. Although Judy lovingly and diligently cares for Christopher she struggles with the frustration she feels as a result of not always being able to understand her son’s behaviour. This ideology is further reiterated through the comparison in the letter between Ed and Judy seen in “Your father is a much more pacient person. He just gets on with things.. But that’s not the way i am…” Haddon’s characterisation of Christopher’s parents presents to the responder the conflicting side of love, the multi-faceted and complicated nature of human interaction, and the opposing approaches of both parents in communicating and dealing with Christopher’s condition, as part of their

In the movie Forrest Gump, Jenny is such a misunderstood person and in no way the evil woman many make her out to be. She is just a lost soul trying to find a place in this world where she belongs and can be happy. She has a hard time thinking she deserves to be happy and loved. Although she mistreats Forrest time and time again, it is not her intention to hurt him the way she does. The way she acts and the decisions she makes all stem from the abuse she went through as a child, then just continues to snowball from there.

The Help and To Kill a Mockingbird share many themes between characters and their problems, while also telling to diverse stories. A good example would be Celia Foote and Boo Radley, who desire friendship because they’re seen differently, but go about getting friends in different ways. Celia Foote from The Help and Boo Radley from To Kill a Mockingbird share the ostracization from their peers and wrongful accusations. Although they have many similarities, Celia is more open and willing to become friends and part of the group and has a husband, while Boo stays rather shy and has no one but his harsh brother.

In most books that we read, we find there is at least one character that we can relate to or compare ourselves to. In the play, 'Inherit the Wind', I found Rachael Brown was easy to compare and contrast to myself. The setting for this play was during the mid-1900s, which allows me to find many differences with Rachael. Surprisingly, I was able to find many similarities as well.

Most Americans often compare themselves with characters from their favorite movie or book. In fact, some people may even visualize themselves as their favorite character when they are watching a movie or reading a book. I relate most with the movie character Tip from the animated movie Home. Tip is very similar to me because she loves traveling and sight-seeing, she adores her pets, and she would do anything for her mom.

     After studying the short stories of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Young Goodman Brown” and Willa Cather’s “Paul’s Case”, I began to see many similarities within the two stories. Both of the main characters in each story have characteristics that could be looked at as being alike, but after analyzing each character I started to find that although alike in some aspects, these two characters are very different from one another. At first I noticed that both Goodman Brown and Paul are starved for attention, but in different ways. Next, I see that each character has issues with their past and are both trying desperately to overcome them. Finally, I found that each character’s main goal in

April Pedersen does a decent job at stating her claims to the readers but often forgets to back her claims up with evidence that is sold and understandable. The lack of correct and clear evidence makes it very difficult for readers to agree with her opinions. As well, a lack of personal testimony is a large problem in the paper. These small leaks in evidence are hard to notice when first reviewing her paper, but after great analyzation any reader can be confused by her failing evidence. Pedersen’s insufficient evidence forces her claims to seem unreasonable leading to large amounts of disagreement and small amounts of acceptance.
