Jackaby Characters

At the beginning of the short drama, “Trifles,” Mrs. Peters, the sheriff’s wife, is painted as timid and submissive wife. She willingly submits herself to the responsibilities she has as a wife. As the play unfolds, Mrs. Peter’s submissiveness begins to diminish. Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale work together to uncover the murder of Minnie Wright’s husband. When the women find the evidence, they refuse to share it with the men. Mrs. Peter’s character transforms into a more confident individual over the course of the play.

Many of you may be thinking a beast is someone who is ugly, big, and monstrous, but is that really true? A beast can be within ourselves. The beast is us. In William Golding’s “The Lord of the Flies” includes many monstrous behavior, a boy like Jack. Whom was stuck on the island with other boys. He was different. Very dark, someone who wanted to take initiative with every chance he had, a dictator is what he was in somewhat form. Believing based off of his real intention, Jack is the beast within himself. He was hard headed. He believed his actions were beneficial they were because of how helpful they were to the other boys. Many of his characteristics weren’t good, because he had no good intention. Jack is a dictator, hypocritical, and someone

To analyze the impact of women in the picture, one must examine Philip Marlowe, the hero and epitome of masculinity. Throughout the novel, Marlowe displays the admirable qualities of a man: intelligence, strength and justice. Additionally, Marlowe’s role as the hero of the film creates an example to which all men should strive. He represents the goals and desires of men, and as such his behavior helps define the position of women. Women constantly throw themselves at Marlowe, allowing him to pick from a fairly wide selection. His choice of Vivian holds considerable weight in determining the traits that make a woman popular. Marlowe’s interactions with all women help reveal the complexities of 1940s feminine attraction.

In the story, verbal and dramatic irony are used to show the woman’s superiority in analyzing the crime scene over the men’s analysis. The two women in the story, Mrs. Peters and Martha Hale, analyze the crime scene much better than the men because they see the struggle of Minnie’s rebellion from her husband. In the story, “Wives themselves, Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters are able to determine Mrs. Wright’s frame of mind from

The book that I red was “The body in the woods” written by April Henry. This book is a mystery/suspense. This book is about three teenagers, Ruby, Alexis, and Nick, who attend Lincoln high school. They all join search and rescue or SAR for short. When they go on a case they found a body. They are trying to figure out who it is and who murdered her. Later on in the book Ruby finds a big clue leading to the end of the case and every one being saved from this murderer.

The children landed uncharted island far from any semblance of police, parents, or even teachers. The island was almost like the “Neverland” that Disney taught us about years ago, but without Tinkerbell and a magical home with all their needs. Jack and the children in this adventure were in a heap of trouble. They were many, some smaller and some bigger (littleuns and bigguns). These kids had to organize themselves into some sort of unit, to more efficiently find a way home. That is where the trouble begins. When one or more humans come together, a hierarchy is always established. Similar to when one goes to a restaurant and the waitress only addresses our father for the majority of the tables decisions. When this hierarchy forms, the decisions this leader takes will always be classified as good or evil, and the society will be judged by the character at their forefront. In William Golding’s novel “Lord of The Flies”, Jack Merridew is the character that takes leadership in the society and proves humanity is inherently evil by demonstrating human’s: selfish tendencies, competitive nature, and hopelessness.

Throughout the novel, the three main characters demonstrate each of the Freudian traits Jack the id, Ralph the ego and Piggy the superego. Jack the id will need to seek instance gratification of his primal needs. Ralph the ego will have to hold back the impulsiveness of the id until the time is socially acceptable. Piggy the superego is the close connection to a moral compass.

Just a few hours ago, Kate would have never thought she could escape the force field. That sounded like a crazy dream, but now she was free and so was Mr. Jacks and Darby. They were in the outskirts of Philadelphia and it looked like a normal suburban neighborhood. Though it was obvious that no one had been in these houses for a while. They must have disappeared… Kate thought to herself. There was no sign of human life still being here.

In the novel, The Lord of the Flies by William Golding, a group of young boys end up stranded on an island due to their plane being shot down while trying to escape World War II. Because there are no adults around, it’s up to the boys to establish rules and learn how to survive as a society. As the story progresses, Golding starts to introduce a recurring theme, savagery, which is evident in the mindset of one of the main characters, Jack Merridew. The transformation in him is greatly significant in contributing to why savagery is a relevant theme. Jack, being a dominant, controlling character, constantly pushes the other boys around, especially Piggy. His need for authority motivates him to find new ways to manipulate the boys and strip Ralph of his leadership. In addition, he has a natural bloodlust inside him, which develops over time into a savage-like instinct.

When searching for a life-long companion, every woman has their version of “Mr. Right.” For some, that perfect man may possess tall, dark, and handsome qualities. For others, he may only require a stable job and a head between his shoulders. In “A Jury of Her Peers” by Susan Glaspell, a version of “Mr. and Mrs. Wright” is ironically developed through two main characters, Martha Hale and Mrs. Peters. Throughout the literary work, Mrs. Hale overcomes her many burdens to protect a presumed murder that she once referred to as a friend.

Martha Hale is brought to the Wrights’ house along with Mrs. Peters, the sheriff’s wife; Mr. Peters, the sheriff; Mr. Henderson, the county attorney; and Mr. Hale, Mrs. Hale’s husband. As they walk up on the scene of the crime Mrs. Hale points out Minnie Foster’s fruit preserves

There were many feelings that Jack’s biguns had after what happened the night before at the feast, realisation was beginning to set in and they knew that they had killed Simon instead of the beast that they thought they were killing at the time. At the time their minds took over and they went wild, not even stopping to think about what they were doing, they were becoming a part of the island, unable to control themselves and make civilised decisions. I believe that they were half-relieved by the implication of further errors because now they knew amongst themselves that they were able to kill something that is bigger than a pig, which they doubted they were able to do before. Also, they now have confidence in the idea that they could tear down

First I’m going to begin with Mr. Hale, I don’t think he was the main protagonist he was just used in the beginning of the play to set a foundation for the entire play in itself. He is the first person to actually discover that John Wright was dead so he was the one who has to give his testimony of the day’s events leading to finding Mr. Wright. I think if I were to use Mr. Hale in the film adaptation I would not only cast him as the character to find Mr. Wright but also as the narrator telling the story of how he got to the point where he is giving his testimony. There are two more characters that I want to describe here that are very important to this play Mrs. Peters (The sheriff Peters wife) and Mrs. Hale (Obviously Mr. Hale’s wife). I want to bring them into the spot light of being the protagonist because of how important they are to the play in finding the empty cage and the actual dead body of the bird leading to a possible killer of Mr. Wright. They are highly disregarded by their husbands and the county attorney which is unsettling but also very relevant to the time period in which this play was written. The time period of the play probably early to mid-nineteen hundreds can be told by the fact that only a few people were there for the investigation, along with the fact that the house is still warmed solely by the use of a single wood furnace. The fact that she canned most of her food could also be relevant however many people today still can food quite regularly. Mrs. Hale I want to use as one of the protagonists because she was the one who besides Mrs. Wright knew Mr. Wright the most and was the most saddened by his loss because they were apparently neighbors and she still never stopped in to say

The story, “A Jury of Her Peers”, took place in a time where men were perceived as the more dominant figures. Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters take different approaches to this topic. Mrs. Hale feels belittled and takes offense to this. On the other, this belittlement does not affect Mrs. Peters too much. Mrs. Peters is a soft spoken, gentle woman who is married to a sheriff. While Mrs. Hale is a strong-willed woman from a farmhouse, the gender roles really affect Mrs. Peters decision making a lot. Mrs. Peters does not usually get into too many verbal fights with the men, but Mrs. Hale sometimes does get in a skirmish with them. For example, George Henderson was washing his hands and then he had to wipe his hand with a dirty towel. His immediate perception of Minnie Wright was that she is dirty and not a great house cleaner. Then Mrs. Hale retaliated to this by saying that when one is a farmer’s wife, the work is never ending. Mrs. Hale said this because she herself is a farmer’s wife. Though Mrs. Peter’s is soft spoken and listens to everything her husband says, her character develops throughout the story. She starts developing her own opinion. This story is an about undiscovered murder in which three men, including Mrs. Peter’s husband, need a certain evidence in order to convict Millie Wright, the women accused of murdering her husband. Mrs. Peters finds this evidence, but does not tell her husband because she wants to protect Millie Wright. Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale did have

Phillip Marlowe (Humphrey Bogart), P.I, is hired by the rich General Sternwood to out a blackmailer, but quickly finds himself tangled in the Sternwood family’s dirty laundry — it’s the classic film noir narrative. At the center of it all seems to be Vivian Rutledge (Lauren Bacall), a Sternwood daughter, and the woman attempting to cover up the murder at the bottom of Marlowe’s case. I used Vivian’s tidy adherence to the femme fatale archetype to dig deeper into its true message about women’s nature, beyond the mysterious façade.
