The Hound Of The Baskervilles Embedded Narrative

At first a reader may wonder why the hound even in the book? Only when the hounds symbolism is revealed is the question answered. In the story the Hound acts like the enforcer of the no book law that has been enforced for many generations. When more people started to be on the earth they made it so all the authors had to write the same books so people would read them. However because all the books were the same and boring people stopped reading altogether. The hound is the same way because the hound is society. The hound scares people into acting just like today's society teaches people to act and look a certain way. Montag is affected by this because while he is on his journey of enlightenment the hound just like society tries to change him. On page 133 the announcer on the TV Montag was watching said all these terrifying things about the hound. It's said “---nose so sensitive the Mechanical Hound can remember and identify ten thousand odor indexes in ten thousand men without resting!” Just like society the hound was scaring Montag however he stood up and got away from the temptation of giving

The idea of universal storytelling elements are things that are in everything we watch and read. We recognize them, and think about them without even realizing that they’re there. In The Maze Runner, by James Dashner, universal themes in the dystopian society such as Heroic scenarios, Likable characters, startling factors and using odd elements to keep the reader interested are used to make the story easier to relate too, and to make it more interesting for the reader.

Suddenly, a low sound seems to ring through each of our ears, a moaning howl that I heard that I heard on the moor that afternoon with Stapleton. Sir Henry keeps questioning the sound and wondering what the locals say about that sound, but I try to change the subject, finally admitting that it is the howl of the Hound of the Baskervilles. As Sir Henry starts to sound very superstitious about the Hound, we spot Selden just as he seems to realize that he has been found. He took off and ran across the moor, and we chased after him we realized that he had too much of a head start. Standing on the moor, I gaze out into the distance on the moor and spot another tall figure of another man outlines against the moor. But then, a split second later, the man was gone. I am quite interested in who the tall figured man out on the moor was, and who might've been helping Selden. And why Stapleton acts so strange at times, but then covers it up and is all normal again. They are many suspects that I have thought up and a lot of mystery going on at this time Holmes, I wish you were here to investigate along with me. I will check in with you soon with much more information I

Analyse the use of Dr Watson as the narrator of The Hound of the Baskervilles

Early on, Watson and Holmes are introduced to the Baskerville case by Dr. James Mortimer. For centuries, they discover, the Baskerville estate has existed in the gloomy shadow of the Hound, a constant threat that looms over the family. Centuries earlier, Sir Hugo Baskerville had died under mysterious circumstances- his death attributed to the hound. His descendant, Sir Charles, died under similar circumstances recently. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson make it their responsibility to protect Sir Henry Baskerville from the omnipotent hound. At first, the readers immediately suspect Barrymore, Sir Henry’s butler. Watson and Holmes become suspicious when they find out that he plans to leave his job.

The use of censorship within many dystopian societies along with technology contributes to a society that is isolated and ignorant similar to the one Montag lives in. One thing that comes along with technological advancements are lack of complex thinking and social skills. One remarkable advanced technology that shaped the society was the Hound. The Hound was mechanical creature that follows all instructions given by the government and firemen, but the Hound do not “think anything [they] don’t want it to think”, instead it is only instructed to “hunt, find, and kill” thus a “shame, [since] it’s all it can do”(23), the use of the Hound demonstrates the simplicity of minds in this society. The job of the Hound reflects how society functions, and because the society functions in an ignorant manner where thoughts are controlled by releasing only certain

Introducing the stories, the exposition gives the first impression of a story and should begin with a compelling event to grab the audience’s attention. In the novel, the introduction begins, through Watson’s point of view, by presenting a stick left at their house. Watson and Sherlock examen it and discovered that it belonged to Dr. Mortimer who later discussed the legend of the hound of the Baskervilles because of Sir Charles’ death (Chapter 1-2). This introduction had many events, like the stick, which showed Sherlock and Watson in action; Dr. Mortimer, a character that began the mystery; and the legend, which explains the mysterious hound’s origins. In the film adaptation, the movie starts out with the court scene and Selden’s escape into the moor.

The Hound of the Baskervilles, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, tells the tale of the fabled hound that haunts the Baskerville family. Throughout the novel, the author forms the theme of not being ruled by fear, by the characters dealing with, unexplained deaths, strange sounds, and the existence of the hound.

Detective stories have never truly intrigued me until now, it surprises me that Mr. Doyle is able to developed the characters so well in such a short period of writing. If I could ask him a question about his book it would be, how do you have inspiration for all of the different stories inside the book? How the book is written makes me feel as though I am inside of the story standing beside Holmes seeing what he is, that description is what grabbed me and made me guess about the book. I read the book The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time last year and the young boy always used Sherlock as a “guide” as to how he would go about solving his situations. That shows how influential the book is or prevalent. The book so far has taught

Stapleton,whose action causes the famous detective Sherlock Holmes to look over a case. He takes advantage of the Baskervilles’ superstitious beliefs in order to seize their wealth. The characters who are the main protagonists, and face these guys in order to solve the problem, are Sherlock Holmes and Professor Pierre Aronnax. These two characters have some similarities in their traits in addition to their position in the stories. Professor Aronnax is a scientist that is the lecturer at the Museum of Paris. He is asked to solve the problem because of his excellent proficiency in classifying animals. In the other novel, the curse of the Baskervilles is brought to Sherlock Holmes attention due to his proficiency and experience in solving complicated cases. Up to this point, two protagonists exist in the story because they are needed for solving the main problem. The first things that the readers realize after reading about Professor’s Aronnax are about his love of science and his attention to details. The ollowing quote shows this part of his personality: “Too many insoluble questions presented themselves, too many fantasies danced before my half-closed eyes!”(Verne, 63) Professor Aronnax’s other traits are patriotism, perseverance, conservatism, patience, philanthropy, arrogance and pacifism. Reading the second story comes with pathos resulted from the name of the famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. In this novel the main character is

This book is composed of twelve different stories. Each one is different from the others. All of them end in the exact same way. Sherlock figures out the case and is the hero. It seems that some people are just born to do certain things. During the previous school year I went down to Dallas and saw the Sherlock exhibit at the Perot museum. I feel the exhibit did a very good job at reflecting who Sherlock was. The exhibit really made you feel like you were Sherlock hot on the tail of an investigation. The book also did a great job. So this is my representation of the book.

adventure “The Maze in the Heart of the Castle” is about a young boy named Colin who has nothing to lose and everything to gain. This takes place along time ago, when Colin’s parents die tragically when Colin is only 16 years old. Sad and seeking answers, Colin seeks answers from his religious teacher Brother John. John tells Colin that he might want to go see the Grand Odlum, a mysterious man who lived at an old castle. Colin takes Brother John’s advice, and decides to find the Grand Odlum.

In "The Canterbury Tales" Many themes are presented throughout all the takes in the book. The Merchant's tale was a very interesting and influential story about marriage in which an old man falls in love with a young woman and comes to regret the entire thing in the end. This tale is told also told in a very ironic manner as we learn how much that the Merchant is unhappy with his own personal marriage, while his story is giving the others of the tale marriage advice. The themes of the merchant's tale include marriage, love, and bad decisions. These themes are shown serval times throughout this tale, and are too shown in other tales throughout "The Canterbury Tales".

Criminology began to flourish as a scientific study in the early 1900’s, with the prevalent argument that someone could be born a criminal rather than develop a tendency towards violence. Through his novel, The Hound of the Baskervilles, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle explores this idea of innate criminality. By investigating the ideas of natured versus nurtured criminality and classism through his characters and his setting, Doyle disproves the theory of criminality through devolution and establishes that the theory stems from a classist view of society.

Imagine yourself getting a letter, the letter had been very clear on what you need to do. The letter had clearly told you to meet that person in a specific area at a specific time. You do what the letter says, you go to that specific place at a specific time to see that specific person and when you get there you wait, and wait, and wait but that specific person never came. So as you give up waiting, and as you get tired, you go on the walk back home. On your walk, you see a hound, a terrifying giant hound. You're more than spooked and you try to get away and to your house before it gets to you, but you're too late, and in an instant, your 0heart attack happens and you're dead. In the novel The Hound of the Baskerville’s written by Sir
