Explain How Does The Dress Reflect The Society And Rorschach's Personality

Perfect: adj. \ˈpər-fikt\ 1. Entirely without any flaws, defects, or shortcomings, is the first definition you find on dictionary.com for the word (perfect). Is this actually possible to attain? Has anyone actually ever been perfect? Or is it all in the eye of the beholder? These questions are asked by almost every girl, as we dream to one day reach the unattainable. This is especially true at the tender age of fifteen, where nothing seems to be going right with our bodies and everything is changing in us. This poem stresses the fact that as everyone realizes how unrealistic this dream is, the knowledge makes no difference to the wish. Marisa de los Santos comments on this in her poem “Perfect Dress”. The use of verbose imagery,

Both the characters are really meek and fearful. The image of Walter Mitty by others is that of a meek husband who is dominated by his wife and is not at all adventurous and seriously lacks motives and goal in his life. The way Walter perceives himself to be in his dream world is entirely different from what he is in his real life. While professor Arthur fears the destruction of the world. Declaring himself the world 's 'first weapon with a conscience ', he flees and goes into hiding. Even Though he destroys the arms and ammunitions, he is afraid that he is mortal and human life is transient. He fears that at some point of time, again the world will turn towards war like situations.

In simple terms Semiontics is a form of Linguistics that is the study of meaning and choices. How do we know that having blonde hair means that a character is less intelligent than others, or that using the color blue evokes sadness?

Introduction 100 words In this investigating a film called The Dressmaker directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse and a book called Jasper Jones written by Craig Silvey and with these two text will be comparing and contrasting the use of themes in the film and the book.

Then in Family Tilly and Molly has a rough start when tilly came back but turned out to be happy with each other, while in Jasper Jones Charlies mum and Charlie are happy at the start but went down here very quickly when Laura disappeared.

The Dressmaker (2015), directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse, explores Myrtle ‘Tilly’ Dunnage’s dramatic return to her small hometown of Dungatar, a ‘dump’ located in the middle of nowhere in the Australian outback. Sent away from the town as a child after being held responsible for a murder, Tilly has returned to seek resolution of her murky memories and to take revenge on those who mistreated her. Now a talented dressmaker, Tilly uses her skills to manipulate the townspeople into revealing the intricate secrets that led to her exile. Throughout the film, powerful symbolism present in fire, mirrors and clothing signifies Tilly’s resolution from past issues.

Evidence of Walter’s anger toward society occurs when Walter reads about the Kitty Genovese’s story in the newspaper. "Some of them even watched. I knew what people were, then, behind, all the evasions, all the self-deception. Ashamed for humanity." (pg. 10, chap. 6, panel 8) Kitty was raped and murder. He formed an opinion about society that they were inhumane and cruel. Walter lashed back at the rapist. While talking to the psychologist it is revealed that Walter found the rapist who had murdered the girl. The rapist had fed Kitty’s flesh and bones to his two German shepards. Rorschach murdered the dogs. "It was Kovacs who said "Mother" then, muffled under latex. It was Kovacs who closed his eyes. It was Rorschach who opened them again." (pg. 21, chap.6, panel 6-7) This is a major turning point in the story. By saying that he opened his eyes and he was Rorschach his created alter ego could now flourish and develop. When Rorschach murdered the dogs he thought of his mother. When Walter lashed out he was doing it to his mother not the dogs, this is displayed when Walter mutters mother before he slays the dogs. Because of this incident and his mother, he took it out on the community and became Rorschach. "I went home. I took the remains of her unwanted dress and made a face that I could bear to look at in the

The society we live in is disposable we feel more than comfortable throwing away or removing things we use from cans, to shoes, and even plastic bottles because we feel as though it’s easier to throw them out then to fix them then reuse them. This process of renewal then reusing has been given a name; its name is “recycling”. The base word of recycle is cycle which according to Webster’s dictionary means to “a set of events or actions that happen again and again in the same order: a repeating series of events or actions.” While reading Garbology I learned the real reason why so much trash exists on our planet which is affecting our living conditions. Our planet is so “trashed” as a result undereducated people not pondering over where their trash ends up, allowing them to

Society tends to misjudge people base on their appearances instead of their personality. This can be seen in the play Cyrano De Bergerac by Edmond Rostand. In which Roxane represents that vile aspect of society. Roxane is attracted to Christian based on his looks, and under minds Cyrano because of his appearance. Society misjudgment of people cause oppression on an individual and it is from oppression and misjudgment f character that causes self consciousness to be born. Cyrano exhibits this self consciousness by helping Christian. Such oppression or self conscious aids to form magnificent characteristics attributes such as the ones portrayed by Cyrano throughout the novel. After all of its societies misjudgment that causes Cyrano to be

The Rorschach inkblot test is one of the most widely known psychological projective test of personality, and the most controversial. In general, projective tests are psychoanalytically based tools that assist clients to reveal their unconscious conflicts via responses towards ambiguous stimuli, and can also help psychologists to determine psychological disorders. Specifically, the Rorschach allows individuals to interpret a series of abstract inkblots based on their emotional and cognitive function, as well as interaction (Barlow & Durand, 2009).

Rorschach is then taken to prison and he is asked to talk to Dr Malcolm his psychologist. He then is asked to take look at pictures and to describe what he is looking at. The first picture looks like a

This event pushed Kovacs into donning his vigilante persona. However, Rorschach, according to Walter, was not created then. He didn’t become “Rorschach” until later in his crime-fighting career. Walter was forever changed after investigating a gruesome case, in which a little girl was kidnapped, murdered, and fed to the perpetrator’s dogs. After solving the case, Rorschach comments,

Because Rorschach grew up experiencing injustice and constant humiliation from other children, he sees his barbaric acts as being equitable, almost as if they redeem him of the rightful childhood he never had. On page 182, panels 4-6, Rorschach’s mother relentlessly beats him after one of her patrons storms out on her. Rorschach tries to explain his actions to his mother, stating that he thought the man was hurting her, this can arguably mean he was coming to her aid. Still, she beats him mercilessly. This is a brief example of what he endured in childhood that later manifests itself through his troublesome adolescence and haunts him into adulthood. On page 203 panel 8, Rorschach stands outside a man’s home, watching as it becomes engulfed in flames, notably, this man was allegedly responsible for the murder of a little girl. Rorschach interprets slaughtering him as an act of redemption, especially because the victim was a small, helpless child. We see his character illuminated by the bright orange embers as his own dark shadow is cast behind him. This panel essentially captures Rorschach’s character, his face covered and his hands resting in his pockets, giving the reader a sense of his cool yet dark demeanor stemming from a troubled past. Similarly, he stands tall in the panel, a metaphor that could interpreted as standing tall in the face of injustice knowing justice has been served on his own terms. His character is misunderstood and seen as cold-hearted. Often

First, Ruth, is one of the women in the house who changes Walter’s decisions in the story. Her relationship towards him is poor. Ruth nags at the beginning, saying “Eat your eggs Walter” (Hansberry 34). This angers him because she repeats it multiple times throughout, not understanding him, showing their strained relationship. Ruth is also shown to not be on Walter’s side on multiple occasions. For example, when Walter finds out that Mama spent the money on a new house, he does not like it. Ruth however is not feeling the same way as him, and tells him “Walter honey, be glad” (Hansberry 92). Ruth tells Walter to be glad, because their views are different. Ruth thinks this was beneficial to the family, yet Walter does not. This hurts Walter throughout the story as he feels alone with no one on his side. Walter know this when he says “Cause ain’t nobody with Me! Not even my own mother!” (Hansberry 85). Since he is alone, and believes no one cares about him, he tries to fix his own mistake when he decides he will get more money saying, “That White man is going to walk in that door all to write checks for more money than we ever had.” (Hansberry 143). Ruth does not like Walter’s idea, but he does not care as no one is on his side, which disappoints Ruth.

”Women have been taught that, for us, the earth is flat, and that if we venture out, we will fall off the edge. “~Andrea Dworkin. This quote shows how society has put this idea into the heads of women in every new generation that a women has to play the certain household role while men go out and work. It portrays that women can’t venture past the expectations that an earlier society put on women’s shoulders. Throughout time, women have played the role of the quiet house wife. Society enforces the expectations that women should follow society’s demands over their own desires. In Chopin’s story “A Pair of Silk Stockings” the main character, Mrs. Sommers, wished to escape the typical role of a busy housewife and wanted to live independently in the life of luxury. These writings are relevant today since feminism hasn’t prospered to the point that both men and women are treated as equals. Some may say that men and women are now treated the same since both are capable of the same duties; however, men can do the same duties but most chose not to due to early women’s roles. The fact that men and society form women into housewife roles even if they have jobs is proven in the article, More Women are in the Workforce-- So Why are They Still Doing So Many Chores?, when its states, “...new data suggests that women in heterosexual partnerships may be just as burdened with household chores as ever--” (business.time.com). Hence, women with jobs are still
