Youngsters' sitting tight in classroom for an instructor Sleepy hallow: Monday, November 16, 1820, the teacher Ichabod Crane was absent after the late-night party. An educator from St.peter school Ichabod crane situated in lethargic Hallow he was absent after the late night party at Van Tassel's home close midnight.
Ichabod Crane and Brom Bones are two, extremely different characters. Both of the characters’ names represented them well; Ichabod Crane was tall and lanky, while Brom Bones was muscular and strong. Ichabod was an educated being and also apprehensive. Unlike Bones who was arrogant, upfront, and more street-smart than book-smart. A few things that contrasted between the actions of both of them is that Ichabod didn’t know how to ride a horse very well, he taught music, was a school teacher, he helped people all around the town with their farms, and had to work hard for his goals.
The similarities between the short story (1820), and the film (1999) is that Ichabod Crane is always scared of the supernatural. The reason he shows fear to his belief is by thinking of a random “headless horsemen” when he goes through the forest where this “headless horsemen” lives or comes out. Also in both the short story and the film Ichabod Crane likes Katrina Van Tassel, just for her money. The similarities I could think of Katrina Van Tassel are that she trusts and wants to help Ichabod Crane. The example is that she helps him find the “headless horsemen” through the dark forest, even though the forest is scary.
As Ichabod Crane and his horse walked out into the moonlight he saw the figure in the road. He stood in shock. “I am here,” I said. “Do you known why am here.” As he looked across the bridge at me he said “no I do not,” so scared.
No tale was too gross or monstrous for his capacious swallow.” This differs completely from Tim Burton’s Ichabod Crane, a cynical scientist who disregards all “spiritual” explanations in favor of provable ones. Ironically, the end and explanation of the Headless Horseman is different in the two sources. In the story, with Crane hungry for the supernatural, Irving implies with his ending that Brom Bones was the Horseman and that what happened could have a reality-based explanation. In the movie, where Johnny Depp’s Ichabod Crane adamantly rejects any supernatural ideas, Tim Burton creates an entire back-story of witchcraft to explain the Headless Hessian.
Ichabod Crane is a funny character. He tells scary stories to different people, but he himself is scared of the dark. He comes across one incident where he is scared of his own footsteps. He is afraid of people. He doesn’t want to cause any trouble to the landlord, so he is always ready to listen to them.
Similar to the first example, Ichabod is good at his work, but he does it differently. That is the only downfall, he has a more complex way of doing it, and since it is a different way he is judged for it. The people of Sleepy Hallow have white hair and dress like they are from the 1780’s, while Ichabod dresses like he is from the 1900’s, Burton does this to portray that outsiders usually dress and think differently than the others. Doesn’t mean what they are doing is wrong it just isn’t the way everyone else does

No one's imagination is more noticeable than that of Ichabod Crane. Ichabod Crane is tall, thin, awkward, and is characterized by his wild imagination. When he walked into Sleepy Hollow, was there a real Headless Horseman, did he imagine the whole thing, or did Brom Bones tricked him? We may not know, but Ichabod’s imagination renders him impotent and is extremely powerful. Ichabod’s imagination leads to his downfall in two ways.
A young schoolteacher from Connecticut, who comes to Sleepy Hollow to teach the town’s children, presumably just for a time. He rotates between living at the homes of his various students for his food and lodging. Ichabod is tall, lanky, and somewhat awkward-looking. He loves singing and dancing—he also gives singing lessons—and believes he is excellent at both (there’s a touch of irony in the narration that suggests he may not be as talented as he thinks). Ichabod is shrewd and clever, knowing when to treat his students strictly and when to be more obsequious to his hosts.
In the story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving, Katrina must choose a husband. I, Ichabod Crane, am the most fit to be Kartina’s husband. First of all, Katrina's beauty must be paired with a man of great intelligence. I am the most intelligent person in the town, so therefore Katrina should marry me. In addition, my intelligence would help Katrina and I make smart choices in life and help us manage Katrina's father's field.
Irving’s blatant similar characteristics between characters include possessing requited love, being financially inept, being selfless, and being eerie. Two similar characters in Washington Irving’s short stories are the young nameless woman from “The Pride of the Village” and Ichabod Crane from “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” due to their pining for someone that does not love them back. The nameless woman from the “The Pride of the Village” was a beautiful young woman who was referred to

Tyler Mcilwain Reading response 2/15 "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" In this piece, Irving's sarcasm is quite present throughout the story. He uses Ichabod's character to signify greed. Even though he seems to be lacking aesthetically, he wants it all and is willing to do anything to get it. Katrina is also quite greedy when it comes to winning over her male counterparts.
