Commedia Del'Arte - Character Analysis and Traits of Pantalone, Il'Capitano and Il Dottore.

The literary device of the mask in Fahrenheit 451, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and Lord of the Flies is recurring in each of the stories. The metaphoric mask is a both physical and symbolic object that alters the characteristics of an individual; usually the protagonist. The protagonist either gradually puts on or takes off the mask to change as a person. The mask itself acts how you would expect a real mask to work. A mask typically obscures the vision so that you can only see in one direction, and some obscure our vision to a blur. Despite that, the mask has a much deeper connotation in literature. The obscurity produced by the mask placed on one is not a true mask, but an event or decision significantly altering the traits of an individual. Such a transition is portrayed in literature as the putting on or removal of an actual mask. This makes easier for readers to understand, and creates a perceptible connection between the symbolism and reality. In the Lord of the Flies and Star Wars:

The mask is a significant symbol of savagery and the dark side that lies within every human being. One instance is when Jack painted his face to fool the animals and blend in with the island for hunting. He painted his face with different colors and when he peered into the water he saw a stranger looking back at him.“He began to dance and his laughter became a bloodthirsty snarling. He capered toward Bill, and the mask was a thing on its own, behind which Jack hid, liberated from shame and self-consciousness” (Golding

The theme of masks is a significant theme throughout the book through the book. In all war people use

My contrasting mask was Creon. This masks opposes Antigone´s, and is full of darker colors, scary features, and words with a negative connotation. The dark colors are for his control, and love for power. Creon´s picture in my mind is a very scary person, therefore skulls and fire were included on this mask. Words such as control and power were added as well. Creon had all the wrong ideas about ruling a kingdom, for he was controlling and

Physical Description – “ This guy is redheaded with long red sideburns and a tangle of curls out from under his cap, been needing cut a long time, and he’s broad as Papa was tall, broad across the jaw and shoulders and chest” (Kesey 12). The quote from the novel illustrates how

She is very illustrative and severe in her characterization. She states metaphorically how is his physical aspect, in one part she says: “some anomalous gene had fired up at the moment of his begetting as a single spark sometimes leaps from banked coils, had given him a giant’s chin”, in this sentence, she uses a cause and effect syntax to characterize his physical defects. This type of syntax causes a better understanding of his nature; an afflictive person that most of the time does not do anything to change. She describes how ugly he is and provokes an unpleasant perception of this character with the purpose to reveal the effects of a disturbed

At first glance, Giovanni Paolo Pannini’s Picture Gallery with Views of Modern Rome (1757) reveals very little past the outsider-looking-in perspective we are given from Pannini’s perspective. In the center is the Duc de Choiseul surrounded by detailed views of Roman architecture including buildings, fountains, and monuments and several infamous sculptures from the 17th and 18th centuries. While looking at the painting, it is hard to pinpoint one focal point within the composition when the walls of the gallery are filled with paintings from the floor to the ceiling. The focus becomes about the space Pannini has created and it does not focus on one specific object or figure. Each view of Rome seen in the imagined gallery adds to the illusion of Rome as an ideal city and to the idea of its beauty. By showing a space that reflects this beauty through the numerous paintings, sculptures, and architecture Pannini’s painting transforms into an allegory. Even though this painting was commissioned to commemorate Rome, he is able to portray the city and its architecture through a well respected and scholarly environment uncharacteristic of any known space or time. These characteristics cause the which allows it by creating a fictitious These allegorical characteristics do not become known unless you take a closer look at Picture Gallery with Views of Modern Rome (1757).

An epic hero is a brave and noble character in an epic poem, admired for great achievements or affected by grand events. In the story Beowulf ,the main character is a prime example of an epic hero. Beowulf being the main character of the story Beowulf, depicts the characteristics of an epic hero because he is filled with supernatural abilities such as strength, he values honor, glory, and fame, and he is courageous and brave. Throughout the story Beowulf shows many supernatural abilities that help point us toward the fact that he is an epic hero.

The mask I made shows that there are 2 different faces. It represents that most evil people have 2 faces. (They wear a fake face while they also wear another face at different times.) An evil person is a person who harms people out of hatred. They also don’t feel bad after what they did something to someone or a group of people.

African masks were to establish a different identity for the wearer in order to amuse, teach, or sacrifice.

Through out the book, there is not many information of his appearance or life before joining the army. Instead I need to guess and imagine what his further details from how he and other people speak and act. For example, he should have a hobby in reading book, since he does understand a lot of knowledge from the world literature to give himself an identity of a lonely hero. This shows his experience of reading several classics. And his imprudent way of humor turns out directly in the way he reads letters in Chapter

His eyes are large and soft, graceful and hypnotic, Red rimmed and bagged, conjuring feelings of motherhood in women, And immediate jealousy in men. Either way, one could easily lose oneself in them, And very likely, many have. His nose has been broken once or twice, Or perhaps he was born that way,

He is usually seen wearing an outfit that made of light color. This outfit is often worn when he's around people he's not used too or when meeting new people. It's a blue shirt with a white vest over on top and a white bow. Light gray pants with a black belt and finally black shoes.
