Theme Of The Tiger

In this sometimes heartbreaking, inspiring novel, Rob Horton, a glum,twelve year old boy living his sad, lonely life with his dad, was wandering through the woods one misty Florida morning when he finds the most unexpected creature, a beautiful tiger. A real life glistening tiger, locked up in a cage. On the same outstanding day he meets a fierce girl named Sistine Bailey while in school. Together, with the tiger always in their hearts;guiding them and leading them to make choices, they go through heartaches,happiness and loneliness. Also, despite their opposites,they uncover the meaning of true friendship and learn that the most important things in life, can’t stay hidden forever. In my opinion, this book teaches an important lesson. I think the lesson taught in this novel is inspiring, and is something worth-while. I think this book teaches you that you can’t focus on your past, and you can’t keep the whole world locked up forever.

Now, the point of the story is this: Did the tiger come out of that door, or did the lady?

Imagery: “Broadly defined, imagery is any sensory detail or evocation in a work; more narrowly, the use of figurative language to evoke a feeling, to call to mind an idea, or to describe an object. Imagery may be described as auditory, tactile, visual, or olfactory depending on which sense it primarily appeals to—hearing, touch, vision, or smell. An image is a particular instance of imagery.”

All in all, the tiger will emerge from the door on the right because like most women, this princess will do almost anything for her own happiness and to keep the one she loves. That is why she chooses death of her lover, the accused man, over giving the man a life happy with a lovely damsel. She assumes that if he shall die of being eaten, they will meet once again happy in love. He will love her and only her, and not be married or be in love with another woman. The princess’s mission is accomplished.

Imagery is used by many writers and this is when the writer uses visually descriptive or figurative language.

The most interesting part of the novel is it’s end which is left on the readers to decide that whether the liked the first story of tiger and a human or the second one that includes animals giving out the mix feeling of humor and grief also Pi Patel describes it as a happy ending (although the tiger left him but he got on land after 100 days on life boat moreover he accomplished his quest of finding God).

The point of view of the narrative provides the aura of a primeval story, with classic fairy tale elements incorporated. “The Lady, Or the Tiger?” starts out with third person omniscient, where the narrator knows all the thoughts and feelings of the characters, leading to a fairy tale quality. The lack

“The Lady, or The Tiger” by Mr. Frank R. Stockton has compelled readers for as long as time. This story ends with all wondering, so which is it, the delicate and fair young lady or the savage, fierce, wild-eyed tiger standing behind the door. This makes us ponder whether human heart chooses love or jealously. Within this essay, there will be proof that it is the stunning young woman behind the door. Although there is evidence proving that it is the tiger, in a sense there is more evidence stating that the elegant and barbaric princess allowed her real lover to continue living. To begin let us start with the small dwindling points that the tiger, lye behind the door.

…Without the slightest hesitation, he went to the door on the right, and opened it. Before the gate had even reached a foot off the ground the young lover, heartbroken, watched four frantic feet pacing back and forth and heard a deep, rhythmic panting. His mind frenziedly raced with dozens of thoughts: How could you do this to me? My dear lover, do you care but only for yourself? Someone must have forced her to tell me to choose the right door! What sort of fool am I to fall in love with the fairest lady in the kingdom?! What am I to do now? Run… The tiger steadily stepped out of his dark cage, allowing the afternoon sun to warm his striped fur. He gazed first at the masses seated breathlessly around the stadium

The tiger emerges from the door at the end of “The Lady, or the Tiger” by Frank R. Stockton. One reason that the tiger emerges from the door is because the princess hated the lady behind the other door didn't want her lover to be with that other woman. For example, when the princess thought of how she’ll lose her lover in both ways, she thought “ would it not be better for him to die at once, and go to wait for her in the blessed regions of semibarbaric futurity”(304)? This quote showed that the princess didn't want to lose her lover to another lady that she hated so much, so the princess would rather have her lover die from the tiger and wait for her in heaven then have him fall into the hands of another lady. Another reason it is the tiger

Imagery is any piece of language that provokes the readers mind to form a mental picture or image.

Imagery is a strong element that helps portray a lot of internal feelings for the audience to fathom with, thus creating an experience that the audience can enjoy. Imagery is the language represented by sense experience and a literary device that helps create a mental picture for the reader to understand what the writer is trying to say to the audience (Johnson, Arp 779). The following is the poem by Langston Hughes: “The calm,/Cool face of the river/Asked me for a kiss.” (Hughes 1-3) When examining the poem, “Suicide’s Note”, it is full of imagery with only three lines present.
