Incident In A Rose Garden

The Ethics Games Dilemmas this week presented “The Mysterious Roses” and “Cold Feet” simulations. For the exercise we were required to address the issues in the simulation and identify the best decision for all parties involved. This summary will review what ethical issues were presented in the simulation, the decision making steps to ethically address the issues, the perspectives and lenses that were used to make the decision, influences in the decision making and concepts that relate to my work place.

In her poem “One Perfect Rose,” Dorothy Parker misleads the reader throughout the first and second stanzas into believing this poem is a romantic tribute to a tender moment from her past through her word choice and style of writing. However, the tone of the entire poem dramatically changes upon reading the third and final stanza when Parker allows the reader to understand her true intention of the poem, which is a cynical and perhaps bewildered view of the memory. And, with this shift in the tone in the third stanza, there is a shift in the meaning of the entire poem, leading the reader to believe that the first two stanzas were not, in fact, sweet but instead a sarcastic and bitter account of this past moment. In the first stanza, Dorothy

People working on their dreams will encounter unmotivated, ignorant individuals who will try to convince them that nothing is possible. Nonetheless, they overcame the prejudice and heavily relied on determination and motivation to succeed. Because they realize that it is achievable and crucial to accomplish their ambition. When comparing “The Rose that grew from Concrete” By Tupac Shakur and “Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night” by Dylan Thomas, it is seen that both authors focus on how people must not give up, yet they have completely different perspectives which they express using personification and symbolism.

Component 2: drama responding required to choose a video clip and discuss the three dramatic elements that appeared in that video. Dramatic elements are the techniques to design the dramatic presentation, atmosphere, verbal or non-verbal interactions, mood and emotion to grab the attention of audiences (Dinham, 2017; ACARA, 2017). I have selected to view the video clip "The Secret Garden: There's someone crying" (Movieclips, 2012). After observing, analysing and evaluating the video clip critically, I have decided to explore the characters, voice and movement.

Donald Justice uses situational irony to establish to readers that death is sometimes unexpected. The gardener realized this by saying “I want to see my sons/ Once more before I die./ I want to see California (Justice 17-19).” The gardener realized almost too late that life is short. This is apparent in his sudden push to see family and foreign places. Even though Death is not coming for the Gardener, it was an important lesson that the Gardener learns. Many people believe that they will never die or that they deserve to live forever. When, in fact, no one is owed life and no one should have a sense of entitlement. In the poem, the master addresses death: “Sir, you must be that stranger/ Who threatened my gardener./ This is my property, sir (Justice 16-18).” From this quote, readers infer that the master does not believe that Death has any reason to be on his property. In other words, the Master thinks he deserves a tomorrow even though he does not. Mr. Justice uses situational irony to show readers how death will sometimes come at the moments one does not

Imagine what life would be like as a rose grown from a crack in concrete.Think about how people would ignore you when you grew from that piece of concrete.Or think about how you would say to your offspring about life in the metaphor of some broken stairs.The poem “The Rose that Grew from Concrete” is about how Tupac is in the form of a Rose and how he explains how this rose grew from concrete and was able to walk and breath air.I do believe that when he said no one cared for the rose that grows from concrete was meaning no one cared for Tupac when he was growing up.

In “Incident in a Rose Garden” we are cast into a garden on a bright summers day where the frightened gardener seeks to flee death to be with his living family. It is hard to come up with two more different settings. Consider the bleak and dreary winter night versus the walk in the sunny summer flower garden. There are also two completely different moods, one glum and morose and the other excited and frantic.

Rose first explains how the educational system classifies a child’s class. He then proceeds to elaborate on how the vocational class works for those who do not do as well in school. He uses pathos so the reader feels emotional for the less fortunate student in the vocational class. Rose conveys his beliefs by using personal examples. He learns true qualities of people and shares the stories of Dave Snyder, Ted Richard, and Ken Harvey. Sharing the personal indications of what puts the students in the vocational class, gives the reader the notion that they have strengths that do not apply doing well in school. Rose ties the examples together in the end to confirm his opinion that one should never settle being defined as average.

Jane Yolen, in her novel Briar Rose, has used an allegory of Briar Rose or Sleeping Beauty as a metaphor to hide the real experiences and emotions suffered from the Holocaust during World War Two. The development and techniques employed within the story are extremely effective for the use of the allegory.

The quote can be interpreted in a myriad of different ways. Throughout our lives, death will surely occur. It may not befall us at this current moment, but

Imagine if your life was getting harder everyday, What would you do? Would you give up? Or would you keep going and facing the obstacles in life? “Life ain't been no crystal stair” said the mother telling her son to never give up and keeping when life get hard just keep going and be the person you imagine to be. The poem “The Rose that Grew from Concrete” is about a rose that overcomes everything that happens in life and is able to grow and be a beautiful rose. And the poem “Mother to Son” is about a mother teaching her son that life isn’t that easy but you should never give up. The stories “The Rose that Grew from Concrete” and “Mother to Son” both deal with obstacles in life but both deal with it in different ways. When the rose gets criticized about how it was grown up and when the mother tells her son about what life's all about.

The author, William Faulkner, has a collection of books, short stories, and poems under his name. Through his vast collection of works, Faulkner attempts to discuss and bring awareness to numerous aspects of life. More often than not, his works were created to reflect aspects of life found within the south. Family dynamics, race, gender, social class, war, incest, racism, suicide, necrophilia, and mental illness are just some of the aspects that Faulkner explored. In “A Rose for Emily” the aspects of necrophilia and mental illness along with the societal biases that were observed in a small-town setting are seen to be a part of this captivating story. These aspects ultimately intertwine with the idea of insanity that characterizes “A Rose

In Willa Cather’s, “Paul’s Case”, several different references are made within the story in relation to flowers. In many cases, the flowers resemble life and the journeys that one goes through. On the other hand, flowers resemble death and how easily it can creep up on a person. Both these symbols can be recognized in the story of the young protagonist; However, the true reason the flowers are so prominent in the story is to resemble, and therefore predict, the life of Paul. Like the flowers, Paul will bloom and prosper and be beautiful, but if the flowers spend too much time trying to live in a non-compatible season, the flowers will wither away and die like Paul.
