Howl's Moving Castle Character Analysis

Inherit the Wind is a play by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee that depicts the infamous Scopes Trial. The real names of the persons involved in the case were changed, however, the play recounts the same story. One journalist in the story, E.K. Hornbeck, who is closed-minded, a hypocrite, and very cynical proves that the religious community of Hillsboro is not the only one to be intolerant.

In “The Glass Castle”, pages 62-121, some of the characters have an experience that makes them undergo a change in character. While it is not too noticeable, if you dig deep into the text you can see how the characters are affected, and possibly make some predictions of how this is later relevant to the story. Some of the predictions and assumptions may not be totally accurate, but are made based on evidence from the story. Jeanette, Brian, and Lori all go through a transformation after they each experienced some sort of distressing event.

“He might come and burn the house and the ‘family’. That’s awful! Think of our investment. Why should I read? What for?” (Bradbury 73). Mildred never cared about literature, only her ‘family’. Even after she sent in the alarm for the firemen, and ran off to the taxi, she was muttering, “Poor family, poor family, oh everything gone, everything, everything gone now…” (Bradbury 114). Since Mildred never changes throughout the novel, she is static.

Have you ever wondered what would happen after you died? In Lauren Wolk’s Wolf Hollow Annabelle is growing up in a small town, where everything is the same. Suddenly, her life is turned upside down by Betty Glengarry, the mean girl, who is new to Wolf Hollow.

I believe that one way you can look at the book The House of the Scorpion through a lens is by considering how class plays a role in the lives of different characters and their relationships in the book. Some characters whose lives have been affected by their class include: Matt, El Patron, and the Eejits.

In the story “House Of The Scorpion”, written by Nancy Farmers, the main character of the story is Matteo (Matt) Alacran. The main setting of the story takes place in the country of Opium. In the beginning of the story, it describes a man named Eduardo who delivers a baby Matt from birth from a cow. There were thirty six split cells of life in the beginning, but only Matt was the droplet that lived. The main conflict of the story is Matt himself; he is a clone of the one of the most powerful drug dealers, El Patron. Besides only a few characters of the story, everyone despises him and is disgusted being close to him as well because he is a clone, whose status is lower than a cockroach. Due to being a clone, the reason he is alive and not turned into an eejit (people with computer chips in their brains and acts like zombies), is to be used as spare body parts for El patron when his organs stop working. The solution is that El Patron is dead and all of his successors are too. At the end of the story, Matt becomes the new lord of opium.

In the story House of the Scorpion, written by Nancy Farmer, the main character is Matt Alacran. The main setting is in the future in the opium fields and Atlzan. In the beginning of the story, we meet Matt in Celia's house. The main conflict in the book is Matt being a clone, the whole entire book Matt worries about being a clone and that people will know and what they will do. The solution to the conflict is that all the Alacran died and he is now a real person since El Patron died.

Survival of the fittest has never been about physical strength, mental hardiness and intellectual prowess has always been paramount to an individual’s success in difficult situations. In The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, a family of six nomads travel the country in search of adventure and despite crippling debt, neglectful parenting, and tough living situations three of the children eventually find stability and a more permanent home. In this riveting bildungsroman several life lessons and themes are revealed through Jeannette’s intense life experiences. Through the anecdotes in The Glass Castle the reader learns that necessity is the mother of invention and how the Walls’s mentality of mind over matter helps them overcome discomfort that

The concept of a magical guide or supernatural aid informs the audience of unworldly guidance that follows after the acceptance of “The Call to Adventure”. The texts “A Once and Future King” and “Le Morte d’ Arthur” both exemplify an entity, Merlyn, that invades the life of a hero, Arthur, as an aid in order to guide him to victory regarding his journey and adventure. Heroes are often began on their trip by a character who has aced the laws of the outside

Throughout the Glass Castle, the reader is able to recognize a development of self sufficiency and self growth in each character. This occurs due to their parents giving them limited opportunities. There are many examples of these themes, and many relate to how the kids were raised by their two unreliable parents. Rosemary Walls, Jeanette’s mother, is the more difficult out of the two parents. This is because of her constant neglect of the kids needs and her tendency to put herself before anyone else, and it is worse because she truly believes she does not do enough for herself.

Whilst the character of Macbeth is initially portrayed as a noble kinsman, his ambition and motivation, directly influenced by the witches and Lady Macbeth, ultimately transforms him into a corrupt and ruthless tyrant. William Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy “Macbeth” clearly depicts this notion of change, illustrated through Shakespeare's utilisation of literary techniques. The tragic downfall of Macbeth is mainly attributed to Macbeth’s own greed and hubris.

In the novel The Glass Castle I would say we was most influenced by her time in Phoenix Arizona. She is starting to figure out who she is and what she is capable of such as confronting her father about being an alcoholic. Her father did not really enjoy living in Phoenix. Rex wasn’t the kind of guy who likes living in a city. The city was bad for rex but good for Jeanette.

I don’t know about you, but for me so far, all of our author’s attempts to get an explanation about what witchcraft is has failed. We know that witchcraft is the cause of misfortunes and personal injury sustained by the Azande people through what they believe to be no fault of their own, but I think we have yet to have any understanding of what causes witchcraft itself. Where does it come from, who causes it, and is it in any way like a sort of karma believed to be punishment for bad deeds like in eastern philosophies? I think we need to take a deeper look into witchcraft and what the Azande people are actually talking about, because from what I’ve gathered so far, the Azande believe that witchcraft is an unexplained phenomena of independent events that in no way should have had any reason to take place simultaneously
