Adapting
Throughout life, people change a great deal. In many novels, the characters change, they usually have no idea that they are changing. The characters usually change in different ways. Multiple characters might change by being ruthless and blackhearted, and then at the end, they are a happy and cheery character. White Fang and Buck have changed an amazing amount. For example Buck changed from being a happy, lovable character, to answering the call of the wild. White Fang, went from being a ruthless, wild beast to a lovable, domesticated character. People could build up confidence and change without the world ending. White Fang is an amazing novel written by Jack London. The main character, White Fang, is a ferocious, ruthless wolf. At first, he is not allowed to go towards the wall of light and when he does, he finds the answers to every one of his curious wishes. He starts out as a curious little pup, then proceeds to be a curious pup until he meets his first human. When he gets taken back to camp, Kiche comes to his rescue, but they get taken in instead. He started hunting with his mother at a young age, and therefore he learned things quicker. He progressed with his mental age of course, throughout the novel, and had to become an “adult dog” at a young age to protect his mother and himself. His attitude toward children from the Indian camp to the time he became a part of Weedon Scott’s family, he went through many changes. At Weedon Scott’s house, he knew
You’re not the same person you were yesterday. You changed, you grew. Be it physically, mentally, or emotionally. And just like you change, so do characters in books. Take Scout Finch from Harper Lee’s fictional novel, To Kill a Mockingbird. At the beginning of the story, she’s 7 and just learning how the world works. She's scared of her reclusive neighbor and never wants to become what society expects her to be: a lady. At the end of the novel, 4 years later, she realizes that her reclusive neighbor is nothing to be afraid of and being a lady doesn't mean that you aren't strong. Scout changes by learning what real courage is, by walking in others shows, and by learning that things aren't always as they seem.
A natural tendency is for characters to change and develop throughout a story as it progresses. A character can develop from A kind personality to a angry personality. For instance how Scrooge changes from greedy and cruel to selfless in A Christmas Carol. When Scrooge is put through a series of test to see what life is like outside of his shell, his demenur on life changes. ALthough characters can also change in a negative way. Scrooge's gradual change in attitude from selfishness to selfless conveys the theme, the populace has the power to change their ways no matter how distasteful their actions once were.

It is commonly said, as well as believed, that change is inevitable. It is bound to happen, whether we choose to believe in this concept or not. An excellent example of change, change of character specifically, would be Eliezer Wiesel in his book Night. He wrote about his time in concentration camps, and the traumatizing experiences he went through, some of which most people can’t even begin to imagine. His mentality changed and developed more and more as the book progressed, he has clearly changed from the once religious and faith-based boy, into an anguished and desolate man.
There is a pervasive notion in fiction that the work must have a happy ending. That
This showed how much she changed because she was considered to be a bad lady or evil. Finally another person that changed in the book was Freak, he went from a know it all child to a young caring person. Before Freak met Max he would walk around always correcting people and never thinking twice about it. But in the end of the book he learns what boundaries are, and thinks about how what he says will affect others and how it will make them feel. These were a few examples of change in the
Throughout all of human history, there has always been one constant. This constant is change. Humans have a knack for taking something that is already good, and tweaking it to make it better. We take something that is already fine, then replace it with something newer and better, and then we replace that thing. It is a never ending cycle; a cycle of change. In his novel, The Natural, Bernard Malamud says that the cycle of change affects everything through the character arch of Roy Hobbs.
Change can be either a good or bad thing. In the play, Death of Salesman and in the novel Ordinary People the characters Conrad and Biff have changed to show the choice of needing a happy life verses Beth and Will did not change and that showed that they were miserable for the rest of the lives.There are two characters Conrad and Biff that learn change help them discover themselves. Then there are two other characters, Beth and Willie that do not change and showed us that there are bad results with being miserable for the rest of lives. The first character, Conrad is space anxious space at first space but he knows how to deal with his anxiety. The second character, Biff also changes because he not he realizes that the business world is for him. One of the characters, Beth who doesn't change because she doesn't like to communicate. The second character, Willy who doesn't change because he's too stubborn to accept that he won't have his dream job.
For example, the change of living without Allie has not been easy for Holden, Allie treated him the best. Since this change has happened Holden doesn't want anymore change in fear that as you grow up more people pass away and it'll be negative like they
In many stories characters change for a variety of reasons. I think that they change to teach the reader a lesson. This means that a character who is bad will sometime's change and will be good at the end of the book. Something will happen to them that makes them see that they have to change. I also think that characters change so that reader will find the book interesting.
A domesticated dog that gets stolen and sold to the wild, a mongoose that gets separated from his family, and a fourteen-year-old boy that gets shot at by a group of strange men are all protagonists that face difficult challenges revealing their characteristics. Buck in The Call of the Wild by Jack London is a domesticated dog that gets stolen and sold to a sled dog team as he faces the challenge of surviving in the wilderness. Rikki in “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” by Rudyard Kipling, is a daring mongoose who gets washed away from his family by a monsoon and is taken in by humans where he faces the challenge of surviving against Nag, the evil snake who is targeting him. Walt Masters in “The King of Mazy May” by Jack London is a fearless fourteen-year-old boy who faces the challenge of having to be brave as he saves an old man’s claim from black-bearded stampeders. Buck, Rikki-Tikki, and Walt encounter desperate circumstances where they learn about life.
The novel, Fools Crow, was written by James Welch as a Native American narrative set in 1870. It followed the evolution of White Man’s Dog, later known as Fools Crow, an adolescent Pikunis Blackfeet Indian from the band Lone Eaters, who yearned to become wealthy and honored. An opportunity to attain the respect he desired emerged when Fast Horse and Yellow Kidney invited him along to a horse raid against the Crow despite his reputation for misfortune. While on their journey to Crow camp, Fast Horse disclosed a dream where Cold Maker instructed him to clear their water source and bring him two bull robes for his daughters in exchange for a successful invasion. White Man’s Dog also had a recurring dream of women sleeping in a lodge, who awoke with lust in their eyes, but it ended as he moved toward them. He was uncertain of the meaning though he “knew that there was danger in that direction” (pg. 18), and he chose to withhold its possible significance from his fellow warriors. White Man’s Dog was chosen to lead the capturing of horses, and kills a Crow guard who detected the warriors.
Life experiences can change a person’s character. Those experiences can make a person better than they used to be, the characters will unlock a new mentality that they thought they never had. Also they better at conquering fears and obstacles. Characters in my novels go through lots of change as the stories progress. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson, events change the character’s views and behavior throughout the novels. In the novels The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Treasure Island, the main characters in the stories go through a change of personality from their adventures and journeys, encounters with obstacles and antagonists, and the completion of their trials.
In White Fang, Jack London uses several different settings throughout the story. A dark, snowy, spruce forest starts out the novel, while the conclusion leaves you in the warm and welcoming Santa Clara Valley. As a cub, White Fang encounters the ways of the Wild, then is transitioned to the Mackenzie Indian settlement where he first meets man. He stays with them for a quarter of his life, all the while going through the hardships of being a lone wolf amongst the domesticated dogs. Here he learns to be solitary and how to fend for himself; he doesn’t need anyone else to survive in the Wild. After being with his owner, Gray Beaver, for most of his life, he is sold to Beauty Smith, an abusive owner who was intent on entering White Fang into the dark world of dog
She-wolf and One Eye two of the wolves who were behind the attacks went their ways from the pack. They started traveling together, and they finally mated together. When She-wolf was about to give birth to her children, she seeked shelter in a small cave. She-wolf was having trouble finding food and most of all the liter died except for one puppy. The puppy had a natural feistiness to him. She-wolf and the puppy were looking for food when the puppy was found by an indian village.The indians tried to pet the puppy but got bit in result. The puppy cried, and the She-wolf came to his rescue. The indians recognized the She-wolf; they finally realized that they had owned her when she was a pup. The indians named her Kiche when they had owned her previously. The indians petted her; she allowed them. The puppy was very confused as to why his mother would allow them to pet her. Then the indians tried to pet the puppy, and he snarled with his fangs, but he did not bite. That was when the indians named him White Fang. While the indians rolled him on his back and scratched him, a group of the indians’ dogs attacked White Fang. The indians called them off, and they tied Kiche up and brought them to the indian village. After a while, White Fang traveled around the village and came in contact with a mean pup named Lip-lip. Lip-lip bullied him and tormented him. Grey Beaver who currently owned White Fang and Kiche had a friend visit him, and the
