She will emphasize a point she made around 200 pages before. This did not especially inconvenience me in light of the fact that I felt that she was effectively giving so as to express the idea in a more prominent accentuation. The book is a touch longer than it should have been too. Despite the fact that the general population in this book alongside the various transients were looking for a superior life in the north, the fight for correspondence was long from over and the absolute most intriguing parts of the book for me were their encounters in the north. I took in an awesome arrangement perusing the book.
Kelley’s diction adds a tone to the piece and allows her to get her message across with helping the reader understand more deeply . Kelley’s use of imagery, appeal to logic,
In using diction the author was able to invigorate a higher connection, and therefore amplify a connection between reader and writer. Another example, that can really inform readers in multiple aspects is, “The houses up here were shabbier than the brick houses lower down in the valley. They were made of wood, with lopsided porches, sagging roofs, rusted-out gutters, and balding tar paper or asphalt shingles slowly but surely parting from the underwall.” (Walls 150) Jeanette connected her lifestyle with her environment around her, as well as connecting the readers with her feelings.
Dillard implements imagery all throughout her essay, which gives the reader a clear picture of the events occurring. For instance, she describes her husband “gesturing inside a circle of darkness” as a result of him gradually travelling farther away from her (Dillard). Ultimately, the use of imagery in this case represents the loneliness the narrator begins to feel. The author also utilizes metaphors to get her message across. Dillard compares “grammar and lexicon” to a “decorated sand bucket and a matching shovel” because without the other, they will not be able to fulfill their purpose (Dillard).
For instance, she makes a conscious choice in clothing herself in “a provokingly short petticoat, to display the prettiest foot and ankle” (Irving, Paragraph 21). The usage of alliteration makes the scandalous length of Katrina’s petticoat in her time period stand out for the readers to keep in mind. Because she chooses a provokingly short petticoat, her development as a tempting woman becomes more clear. Furthermore, she is “plum as a partridge; ripe and melting and rosy cheeked as one of her father’s peaches” (Irving, Paragraph 21).
Writing with artistry is when the word are strung together in such a manner, the readers imagination is captured and then creates a series of mental images. If the reader can feel, taste, or see the story, the writer has captured their imagination. Thus giving them an artistic story. “The Master tailor and the Teacher’s Skirt,” lacks this quality. For instance Heath neglects to use vivid description to paint a scene in the reader 's mind.
A hero is defined as a person who is admired for their achievements and admirable qualities, or someone who shows courage. In S.E. Hinton’s novel The Outsiders, there are many characters that can be considered heroes. Johnny Cade and Dallas Winston demonstrate heroic actions throughout the novel, however they have not escaped the cycle of violence, crime and their social status. In contrast to this, Ponyboy is a considerable hero whose reputation is clean and his actions remain without ill intention, despite coming from the same gang and having the same social status as the other boys. Johnny, Dallas and Ponyboy all carry heroic traits throughout the novel, however it is Ponyboy's actions that demonstrate he is the greatest hero.
For instance, on page 69 it states, “the wind cried” which is personification. When it says this it means that the wind blew hard so the reader can better understand how hard the wind was blowing how brutal it was out there. A second technique that John Steinbeck used in The Pearl was tone and mood. For instance page, 58 it says, “And rage surged in Kino. He rolled up to his feet and followed her as silently as she had gone, and he could hear her quick footsteps going toward the shore.
In detailing the events that led up to her change in perspective, she made note of the honeysuckle that covered the walls of the well-house, the warm sunshine that accompanied going outdoors, and the cool stream of water that she felt as she placed her hand under the spout. These details kept the reader with her in the moment as she felt something less simple, but still universal; the returning of a, “ misty consciousness as of something forgotten.” In using rich diction, she maintained a sense of intimacy with the reader which allowed her to call on personal details from her own life and theirs. Later in the passage, she described how, once the reality of language was opened to her, and she returned to the house, “every object which I touched seemed to quiver with life.” She had gone through a complete shift of perspective, one that, to her, was felt entirely through senses other than sight or sound.
and although the time period was in the 1700s she is still capable of using these strategies to enhance her literary work. All of the uses of figurative language help piece together what the mother wants for her son and helps convey the mood and tone of the
such as her use of detailed imagery when describing how she resembled a wriggling beetle to put a comical image in the reader's mind. Her use of positive diction to make light of her serious situation, and her different uses of tone, help educate her readers about the difficulties of living with a
Throughout the entire novel, the author’s use of literary devices is very clear. These literary devices, specifically similes and personification, help the reader get a better idea of the exact sounds and feelings which will allow them to know what it feels like to be there in that moment. “ I stood there, trying to think of a comeback, when suddenly, I heard a whooshing sound, like the sound you get when you open a vacuum-sealed can of peanuts. Then the brown water that had puddled up all over the field began to move. It began to run toward the back portables, like someone pulled the plug out of a giant bathtub.
Another literary technique that can be seen in this extract is the use of similes. This is most evident in the line “L’épouse de Ling était frêle comme un roseau, enfantine comme du lait, douce comme la salive, salée comme les larmes.” This line gives a descriptive description of Ling’s wife. It helps us understand what Ling’s wife is like by comparing her to different things such as “un roseau” or “du lait”. The author chose these words because they are something that we are familiar with so that we are able to grasp them quickly.
Jack London 's writing is harsh poetry. He describes scenes in such detail. Reading his work makes you picture how the scenes look in your head. He shows a deeper meaning in the events of his stories(Napierkowski). The point of view of the story is third person limited omniscient.
“The deeper voice rolls over it, obliterates it. Like thunder rolling across the sky.” Joyce Carol Oates’ use of descriptive words, and the comparison to the thunder rolling across the sky, reveals Reid’s true power when he gets angry. This also helps the reader understand his controlling and angry personality. Statement #2 Element: Setting Why is this element particularly strong in the book you read? How does the author use it well?
