Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey is a Bildungsroman, a coming of age story that focuses on the psychological development of the protagonist, Catherine Morland. This essay will analyse the language and narrative techniques of the extract, and discuss how it suggests vicissitudes in Catherine’s personal perspectives and relationships. In addition, it will discuss the ‘domestic gothic’ and abuse ubiquitous in ordinary situations. Furthermore, it will argue how Austen’s rhetorical techniques work to encourage

Jane’s identity was revealed through the release of Persuasion and Northanger Abbey when her brother identified her as the author of these novels. Critiques began to examine her work and comment on them. Many praised Jane for her witty characters, satirical elements, and irony. Some viewed her as a feminist due to her portrayal of

These were thrilling words, and wound up Catherine’s feelings to the highest point of ecstasy’ ( Austen pp.99-100). The use of ‘ecstasy’ reflects Catherine’s excessive personality and self-transcendence. Catherine’s gothic idealist vision of the abbey and her pursuit of pleasure, signifies her lack of self-directedness in which she dismisses

follow conventional roles. These societal roles are also dependent on gender as it can be seen in the two novels. In Jane Eyre and Northanger Abbey, the authors both use the bildungsroman of two young women to illustrate the confinements and conflicts that the protagonists face as they strive to find their own identity within societal expectations. In Northanger Abbey, Austen writes Catherine’s story in a third person perspective. By writing in this lens, the story has a tendency to be along the lines

Finding a Voice: Point of View and Narration in The Color Purple and Jane Eyre "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambitioned inspired, and success achieved." Notable words expressed by Helen Keller. She mentions the character of a person must suffer through hardships in order for the soul to build up, like a muscle, and thus achieve a goal through inspiration.

Pepper, and White, have all been subject to analysis in finding clues of McCartney's “death”. On the Abbey Road album cover, Paul is pictured walking out of step and without shoes on.

If you look on the cover of Abbey Road you can see Paul is the only one out of step and barefoot, to drawing slightly more attention to Paul. Foreign religions are often buried barefoot. The Beatles, shown walking in a specific order; John dressed in white, as a religious person would be. Ringo dressed as an undertaker. Paul, shabby suited and barefoot, resembles a corpse; and finally George, in old jeans, is a gravedigger. The cover of Abbey Road is a funeral procession. Paul also

Quote #1: In the first chapter of Everything Matters!, Ron Currie Jr. sets up the story by introducing the theme of the book on page 9. The quote which sets up the theme of this novel reads, “There are things we can surmise, though, one being that if you are still alive when the comet hits, neither you nor anything else on the planet will be afterward. All of which raises the question-your task, burden, privilege, call it what you like-a question which men and women, great and not-so, of every color

How does Northanger Abbey use representation of buildings and architecture to communicate ideas to the reader? In Northanger Abbey, Jane Austen uses buildings and architecture to represent ideas to the reader about appearance vs reality and to provide evidence for the view that Catherine sees life through a gothic lense.
