Rosemary Character Analysis

Lily´s father taught her also many other life lessons, which shaped both Lily´s character and her attitude. Adam Casey wasn’t been dealt a pretty good hand, however, he managed to play with it. He made the best of it! Even Lily hadn’t an easy childhood, for she had to do at a very young age a good many chores and other things. She took charge of difficult situations and performed like a mother towards her younger siblings.

Lily feels alone in this world. She is ostracized at school, treated with an absence of love and lives day to day knowing that she has committed irreversible acts. When she thinks about her mother all of these complications melt away in the warm allure she feels.

Dear parents, if you want to know what not to do in terms of parenting take notes from Rosemary and Rex Walls. In the memoir Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, both Rosemary and Rex Walls were terrible parents. They always put their own needs and wants over the needs of their own kids. Rosemary did many selfish acts like when she refused to get a job, she didn't give her children food, and wouldn’t sell her land or the diamond ring. Rosemary and Rex Walls are both terrible parents, but Rosemary was definitely the worst.

Lily grew up subjected to strange punishments from her father. Since she was raised by T.Ray without her mother around she never got to experience normal childhood things or motherly love, except from Rosaleen. This caused her to feel as though her life was normal because she didn’t know of any other way of life, yet she still feared T.Ray and his punishments

Parents migrate to secure a better future for their children and they have high aspirations. While they work hard, often for minimum wage, their children often attend schools where the attitude towards education is in a direct contradiction to their ethic and belief. For Ruby her first encounter with the urban education system, language skills were not reinforced, students were not expected to attend college, and hanging out was the main form of social activity. Since then she has relocated to the rural area of Tennessee were the education system is much different. She has two children already grown with careers of their own and two children still in school. Her goal is to have all of their children to be financially stable, healthy, and

Before the Walls children are even conceived, Rosemary finds her mother overbearing and controlling. Consider that her mother, Grandma Smith, is a force of order herself. She made Rosemary get herself a teaching degree in case her artistic career didn’t succeed, which Rosemary had to fall back on eventually during their times in Battle

The key to unlocking and understanding Marisol by Jose Rivera is in recognizing and examining the 3 different worlds Marisol works her way through over the course of the play. The main character, Marisol Perez, dies in the very first scene and spends the rest of the play trying to pass onto her impending afterlife. Additionally, Marisol is a play about Puerto Rican culture and religion and how it affects not only the life of an individual, but also the death of our main character.

Even with his warm personality and charm, Speers is steadfast in her and Rosemary’s goals. Speers planned and successfully raised Rosemary to be superior to her female counterparts, and to be sharp-witted with the males she would interact with, both on a personal and professional level. Jonathan Schiff in Ashes to Ashes: Mourning and Social Differences in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Fiction said that Speer’s “callousness led to her daughter’s ability to survive hardships” (Schiff, 125). Speers nurtured and controlled Rosemary her whole life which led to Rosemary becoming successful in the movie industry; however, Rosemary became dependent on her. Speers wants Rosemary, her daughter, to become less dependent on her so she slowly but surely backs away from Rosemary, encouraging her to make her own choices. When she hears that her daughter is in love, which in reality is just an infatuation, with Dick she fully encourages Rosemary to experiment by saying “wound yourself or him, whatever happens it can’t spoil you, economically you’re a boy” (Fitzgerald, 40). Speers later reveals with no remorse or emotion, that she was leading Rosemary on a path that would lead to her emotionally controlling Dick. Regardless of his skills to infatuate others with himself, Speer’s careful planning and the way she controlled her daughter led Rosemary to move on past the ordeal. Rosemary was controlled by her mother her whole life which ended up having a positive

In addition, after Lily’s liberation from T. Ray, another character pushed Lily to make a choice without even saying a word to her and that character was Lily’s mother, Deborah, who was dead and yet she still guided Lily to her next destination. Deborah’s largest contribution to Lily’s life was leaving behind a trail of love for Lily to follow, giving Lily someplace to go when she had no home. Lily immediately knows where to go after leaving her father's trammel, for she finds a picture of Deborah in Tiburon, South Carolina. Lily’s eagerness to learn more about her mother urges her to travel to Tiburon. Lily reveals her desperation on finding out more about her mother’s love towards her when she said, “ Well, think about it. She must have been there some time in her life to have owned this picture. And if she was, a person might remember her, you never know” (Kidd 51). Lily’s voice held a sense of hope as she believed that there was something in

Luckily for Lily, she comes upon the Boatwright sisters once she reaches Tiburon. Because of the fact Lily does not have anyone to share her love with, she is compelled to stay and live with the Boatwrights. At one point in the novel, Lily and August are having a conversation when August asks Lily “What else do you love Lily?”(Kidd 39). Lily then thinks to herself, “No one had ever asked me that before. What did I love? Right off the bat I wanted to say that I loved the picture of my mother…but I had to swallow that back”(39). Lily does not feel comfortable enough yet that she says, “ I love writing poems, just give me something to write, and I’ll love it” despite the fact that Lily really loves August (39). She loves August so much that she would rather stay in Tiburon with the Boatwrights than be with her own father T. Ray. The loss of Deborah results in Lily going to obtain love somewhere other than her own home. This is also why Lily takes Rosaleen with her. Rosaleen is a black nanny who used to work on T. Ray’s farm. She has been there for Lily in the past but she cannot always be there one hundred percent because of her race. Due to Deborah’s death, Lily does not have a mother figure, however, he journey to Tiburon with Rosaleen proves to be a success as she finds the Boatwrights and strengthens her relationship with her nanny, Rosaleen.

Her father is described as a neutral figure and her memory of him is hazy at best. This lack of a father figure led to Lily’s attitude towards men. Because of this Lily always denies herself suitable marriages because she always feels she can do better. Lily is conflicted between the man she loves and the man with money. She loves Seldon but she deems him too poor for her perfect marriage. After much thought, Lily decides to marry Peter Gryce who is exceedingly wealthy but is too late as he is already engaged at the time of her decision. Lily cannot decide between love and money both of which are important aspects of her life. She is unwilling to compromise between the two which eventually leads to her downfall. Lily needs to marry a man with wealth and a stable status in high New York society because she needs a source of income to supplement her own unstable wealth.

Theresa held her mother and watched her die while they were waiting for the ambulance. Rosemary went to high school and worked a part-time job in order to provide for the family. She had to become an adult overnight. “Theresa was not sympathetic, and the teenage rivalry between them escalated. Her grief metamorphosed into depression and desperation while Rosemary was trying to keep the family together and carry on” (McDougal, 1995, p. 21).

‘Rosie the Riveter’ is the name of a fictional character which was created to represent and symbolize the millions of real women who were encouraged by the North American government to join the work force in factories, munition plants and shipyards during World War II, while most men were called to duty to serve in the army during the war.

When acknowledging the gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, we notice that this gap in gender participation begins to expand once students leave grade school (K – 12) and move into higher education. One of the reasons for this comes from women being underrepresented in these areas. So obviously, when working to close this gap, schools must work to represent women in these fields as much as they do men. In grade school, students are more likely to have a positive attitude towards women in science when they are exposed to women who work in STEM fields, as opposed to classes that were not given that exposure (Smith & Owens 1986). So, if the interest in STEM tends to be equal between girls and boys in grade school, it is fair to say the girls move away from these areas because they feel as if they don’t belong due to underrepresentation.
