In the story The Locket, Edmond the lover of Octavie, and son of Judge Piller, goes off to war. Edmond is given a locket from Octavie before he goes to war. During the war a priest is going over dead bodies and finds the locket. He sends it to Octavie. When she see this she instantly comes to the conclusion that Edmond is dead. Sometime later Judge Piller gives Octavie a weird speech about miracles. Judge Piller knew Edmond was ok and home waiting for Octavie. Apparently a soldier stole Edmond's locket and they then live happily ever after. I was surprised and happy with the ending. When the priest found the locket on the dead soldiers body, I assumed it was Edmond's. Some soldiers die in battle and I thought this
Depends completely on your playstyle, full ad renekton died as the lethality changes hit him really hard, and fervor went to complete shit as they replaced the on hit damage with flat ad. The new popular build in him includes CotC, BC, Titanic, DD, and last item of your choice, and imo it scales pretty well. CotC is completely busted and gives you really strong shield stats that can help you transition better into the late game, and you still do a shitload of damage with the auto w titanic q combo. SRO (SoloRenektonOnly) has been going locket as his last item and it's been going
The locket is a great short story. It is well developed, unified and coherent. Its inspiring and touching and moving. Kate Chopin is a great author with well thought out ideas and creative writing. The ending in The Locket didn't surprise me. The author Chopin was foreshadowing through out the whole story. When Edmond came back to find Octavie, and lost the locket, is was predictable. One, By the amount of love he showed for her. To make sure she knew how much she loved him. Two,
The ending of “The Locket” was very surprising. Three reasons the ending was surprising was one, Edmon was still alive. Also, Octavie was always depressed so it was unexpected her husband was still alive. Lastly, Nick, his alli, stole the locket.
At the conclusion of The Locket Edmond told Octavie that he didn't lose the locket but that it was stolen from him. I found the ending confusing but after reading it over I found the ending predictable. The conclusion of the locket was predictable because of three major details. The locket being stolen was predictable because the lockets description, Edmond's messmates, and Edmond's battles as a Confederate soldier. The locket was stolen for its overall value.
In the short story The Locket, it is believed that the author Chaplains writing style has kept the readers guessing throughout the story. Many would agree that the ending of the story was a shocker and few expected that conclusion. They would agree that the father-in-law proceeding with the funeral arrangements supporting the assumption the deceased person in the coffin was Edmund because he had the locket around his neck played into the authors plot twist. People would also say that the end of the story was intriguing, especially when Octavia opened the letter from the priest, returning her locket to her expressing his sorrow of the death of her husband Edmund. Only to find out at the very end Edmund was not dead and he was waiting for her at the door.
“The Locket” begins with a group of Confederate soldiers surrounding a campfire after a long and tiresome day of battle. One soldier in particular, Edmond, is seen staring at a golden locket in utter silence. The other men tease that inside of the locket hold a picture of the woman he loves, though Edmond never responds. Another soldier jokes that this piece of jewelry is some sort of good luck token for Edmond since he has never been injured since the battle began. Soon the readers find out that the locket actually belong to a woman named Octavie, Edmond’s lover, and soon find out that a priest returned the locket to Octavive before Edmond came home. This is surely a sign of Edmonds death, but at the end of the story Octavie finds herself
The conclusion to this short story was interesting because in the end when Octavie thought about the boy that was found with the locket, she must have been thinking about if his family would ever know what happened to him. This ending keeps me thinking about if anyone would ever know he died. This ending ties the whole story together because it shows why the author described some things vaguely such as: the soldier lying in the ground with the locket, what happened in the battle, and the “children playing”.
Four confederate soldiers where talking over the fire while waiting for orders from Edmond. Edmond had on a necklace and the other soldiers noticed and asked about it. Edmond told them it was a catholic token to protect him from danger, and it has protected him the whole time he's been at war. He told them that Octavia had given it to him. The locket contained a picture of he parents and the date they were married. Later that evening war broke out and a clergyman walked into the aftermath of the war trying to save the souls of people that may be alive. He saw a soldier with a locket and tore it away from him. He sent the locket with a letter to whoever was closest to the person that the locket belonged to.
The locket is a great short story about two lovers and one sent off to war (Edmund), while his significant other (Octavie) stays home and waits for his arrival. One tragic day she sees that Edmund’s body is in a casket. He has died. Judge Pillier helps her grieving. But her grieving may be enough for him to cheer her up. But is Octavie asking for more than she can bite off?
In Kate Chopin’s “The Locket” Edmond and Octavie are engaged during the American Civil War. Edmond is a soldier who carries a locket that has Octavie’s picture inside. Other soldiers joke that the locket is a talisman that protects him. Later, a preacher finds a dead soldier wearing the locket, which he assumes to be Edmond. Octavie is devastated by Edmond’s death after receiving a letter and the locket from the preacher. Eventually however Edmond comes back from the war; the locket was stolen by the soldier who died. Octavie is shocked and delighted by her fiancé’s return. I was surprised by this plot because I felt the same way as Octavie.
Edmond’s father has longed for his son’s return and now that he is back he is happy once again.
The Trent Affair has finally come to an end. Today is January 1st. James Mason and John Slidell have been released from Fort Warren in Boston, Massachusetts. This means that things are a bit calmer and there won't be a huge battle. I can rest for a few days. Today is now January 10th, some news had arisen today that the Union President Lincoln, had a meeting, in which he stated that if George McClellan, an Officer in the army who was ill at the time, won’t use the army, then he (Lincoln) will. This was not good news for the Confederates. We need to win this war, and Lincoln and his armies are in our way, defeating them is becoming more and more difficult. I heard today about the Battle of Middle Creek. Some
The 18th century is well known for its complex artistic movements such as Romantism and Neo-classical. The leading style Rococo thrived from 1700-1775 and was originated from the French words rocaille and coquille which meant “rock” and “shell”; used to decorate the Baroque gardens1. Identified as the age of “Enlightenment”, philosophers would ignite their ideas into political movements1. Associated with this movement is England’s John Locke who advanced the concept of “empiricism”. This denotes that accepting knowledge of matters of fact descends from experience and personal involvement1. Locke’s concept assisted the improvements of microscopes and telescopes allowing art students in the French academy to observe real life1. Science and
In the other hand, we see Langston Hughes looks at the new movement in negative perspective because the African American aren’t getting the same equal right like whites. He believed that the movement at Harlem is segregated African American where Jim Crow made to keep them at the same place as they were before. His argument was people need to accept the reality of the blacks living during that time, because people acting as if the movement gave black people freedom, but in fact it didn’t. The black people
John Locke's "BOX" is a great very funny book. i bought the book about ten days ago & read some pages. it awesome. very good writing skeel of the writer. And yet, reading Locke's books is inordinately satisfying, hilarious, if not totally crude, engrossing and addicting. How the man does it is a mystery (but I like his book prices). He's smart, selling books cheap and thereby gaining more readers and therefore making more money as compared to jacking up the price for a single read but less volume in sales. This book Box really is the second - turns out the doctor specializes in both cardiac and pediatric surgery. And based on what I've read of the latest one so far, I recommend reading this book first even though it isn't, IMHO, nearly as
