This can be seen when Lily analyzes the traits of the Black Mary statue and notices “She was a mix of might and humble all in one. [she] didn’t know what to think” (Kidd 70). Kidd uses Juxtaposition by making the reader interpret an idea of a “mighty” and “humble” figure. Often mighty figures are associated with arrogance which is the contrast to humility. By observing the statue, Lily uses her creativity to describe the holy sculpture in this way.
Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, one of the protagonists of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s novel The Scarlet Letter, stands as a highly conflicted character. The source of his divide stems from the consequences of private sins, and is prevalent within the first paragraphs of Chapter 12, “The Minister’s Vigil,” where the narration chronicles Dimmesdale’s surroundings as he dream walks through the town in a state of limbo. He is portrayed as a model citizen who lacks moral imperfections to the general public yet suffers privately from the juxtaposition of his sins to his position within the community. In this specific passage, Hawthorne uses somber diction and imagery to illustrate Dimmesdale’s strife, while portraying his internal conflict through the formation
When authors want to make a point that leaves a memory or needs to make you think about something, they typically use imagery. It can inscribe an image to show the severity or serenity of the moment in a way different from the normal statement, in a deeper way that can leave you with a feeling of joy or fill you with sorrow. In Night, Elie Wiesel uses imagery to show that surviving during the Holocaust was difficult and often given up on. In the beginning, Jews were expelled from their homes, leaving the town barron.
That means Juxtaposition is used, which is the contrast of two or more ideas are present to bring up compare and/or contrast ideas (literary device). The first encounter with this term is when Milo meets both the Spelling Bee and the Humbug. The Spelling Bee is all about education during his parts of the book. The Spelling Bee talks to Milo about how he “... never amount to anything without an education…”, so you see that the Spelling Bee is all about having a valuable education (Juster 52, 53). Later on in the same chapter, the Humbug introduces ends up showing up and expressing his feelings about having an education.
There are a bunch of different examples of juxtaposition in Night by a lot of different characters. There is juxtaposition in the story Night when Elie stated that his “backyard looked like a marketplace. Valuable objects, precious rugs, silver candlesticks, Bibles, and other ritual objects were strewn over the dusty clouds-pitiful relics that seemed never to have had a home. All this under a magnificent blue sky.” This shows juxtaposition because Elie goes on to talk about how everything in his backyard is scattered and desperately wants to sell everything before they get shipped off to Auschwitz and other concentration camps.
Distinctively visual is any element within a text that provokes a clear image, value or perspective. Composers use distinctively visual images to portray meaning, this can be seen in Ang Lee’s movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Samuel Watson’s poem labelled. Although Ang Lee and Samuel Watson portray mainly different ideas, they both use distinctively visual images to show their meaning to the audience. These images are created through filmic and literary technique’s.
Juxtaposition implies comparison and contrast. Juxtaposition occurs when two objects are placed side by side with contrasting effects. Achilles and Elpenor share several superficial similarities. Achilles and Elpenor are among the deceased. They were buried among the living until their souls traveled to the underworld.
and I’m crying like I’m three in front of everyone.” This example of juxtaposition is comparing Rachel’s birthday, which should be happy, to her being sad and crying. On your birthday you should be happy and people should make you want to be happy, however, Mrs. Price made Rachel cry and upset on her joyful day. Another use of juxtaposition in this example was comparing Rachel’s birthday to wanting to be invisible. On your birthday, you should get or want attention, but Rachel just wants to be invisible and hide.
Metaphors and similes create picture by describing something using a comparison. Pathos, Ethos, and Logos are also used to make or persuade a reader to feel a certain way. These
There are many examples throughout the article Petri uses to convey her thoughts, but here is one with many aspects: "It convinced me that the things inside it were true; it told me so many lies that I started to believe it. I loved it; it infuriated me; I broke its spine in half. " As you can see, these two sentences have many different opinions, forcing the reader to connect the meaning behind the writing on their own. One prominent tool Petri uses is juxtaposition; there are many contrasting ideals right next to one another; her use makes the readers question the writing and stirs emotions such as "I loved it; it infuriated me." But she also uses this tool to contrast her longer and shorter sentences, bringing us to the sentence structure tool; while reading, "It convinced me that the things inside it were true; it told me so many lies that I started to believe it."
In this example of juxtaposition the author of the quote states that life is boring but we must make it fun and see the positive side. Later, however, the author commits suicide. This is significant because John Berryman who believed that we should not say life if boring is later compared to how he committed suicide. This illustrates the contrast between the two comparisons and creates

Furthermore, a contrast of bright and dark lighting (occasionally according to day and nighttime) mirrors the degree of optimism and relief or pessimism and desperation of characters standing close to windows, such as in Fig. 41.

Shame (01:01:37; 00:38:44) and Revolutionary Road (01:05:21; 01:28:16): Trapped behind Windows compare Brandon, who is going to have sex for the first time during the day and with a woman he actually has feelings for, in the centre of a brightly lighted frame with Brandon, standing at the margin of the frame staring in dark emptiness overwhelmed by the emotional chaos in his life.
Motloch, 1991, Van Nostrand Reinhold, New York Environmental Perception is the process by which the individual acquires information through decoding environmental cues, affect is the individual 's appraisal of a setting, and cognition is the process whereby the viewer evaluates, ascribes meaning to, and constructs a mental image of place. According to Kaplan, the individual needs to understand and explore the world, and desires to apply the fruits of this exploration to construct greater understanding and meaning. The individual, however, has a limited ability to process information, and through this processing to ascribe meaning (Worchel and Shebilske, 1986) Image formation reduces perceived complexity by aggregating parts into some recognizable pattern.
