Comparison 'And The Love Potion'
Rykel
Both of these authors used different ways to show how they write about love. In "The Love Potion" he wrote a love story in a play type of story. The whole story was written for a play to be made i think its easier to understand whats going on. In the story it told the readers how the charcter act, and how they are, and what they do. The whole story actually ends very quickly, but in a entertaining way. Jesse Martin wrote about love in a fiction way with the magic love potion being involved. On line 62 it says "i can see it in her face. She is feeling the effects of the potion. She is now in love with me too." In "The Goodness of St. Rocque" The author actually wrote a realistic story about love dealing with weddings, and things. He also

    After reading the two short stories, Love in L.A by Dagoberto Gilb and What We Talk about When We Talk about Love by Raymond Carver, I have realized that a common feeling like ‘love’ can be painted into so many different pictures. Each one of these short stories is written by two different authors and sees ‘love’ at different angles. The character Jake in Love in L.A. has this vision of love that is more of a mockery. Then, Terri’s ex-husband in What We talk about When We Talk about Love has so much passion, but the kind of passion that can be interoperated as obsession. The lies and misconceptions of ‘love’ that Jake and Terri’s ex-husband display reveal that ‘love’ does not exist in a world filled with nothing but cruelty and evil actions.…

    The narrator from “The Bass,The River, and Shelia Mant” and the narrator from “Lessons in Love” both are very similar in some ways but also very different. Even though the stories are almost the same, both stories are told from a different point of view. The first contrast between the two Narrators were that the stories were told from two different genders. First story was a boy and second story was narrated by a girl. This makes a huge difference on how they tell the story, because both boys and girls have a different mind set. Another difference was that narrator one was from the country, while the second narrator was from the city. Some similarities between these two characters were that both were the same age and in the same grade. Both…

    From watching the older and more modern version of the killing of Mercutio and Tybalt there are obvious differences, as well as hidden ones. The comparison is between the Zeffirelli version and the more modern version. Watching these movies, paying close attention is important because it is not just the scenery and which characters are played by whom, but what the director was trying to portray in this scene. Both these versions were very different and it is obvious that in both cases the fight probably meant different things or played a separate significant role in each movie.…

    To The Virgins Analysis

    • 1356 Words
    • 6 Pages

    In my opinion, i think the authors are the ones who want the love and sex. For example, the poem To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time the speaker is Robert Herrick and in the poem To his Coy Mistress the speaker is Andrew Marvell. Although in To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time, the speaker is much more creepy and weird. I feel like he is a older man, he is intelligent, and I would guess that his emotional state would be that he is jealous. In the poem To His Coy Mistress i think the author is a reasonable man, he is middle aged, and his emotional state is based around love and desire of wanting a beautiful…

    It is used in both as a way to propel the rebellion of both main characters. Winston only thinks of rebelling against the government until he becomes close with Julia, and then he actively is committing a crime that he uses as his rebellion against the government. Similarly, Triss rebels against Erudyte and puts a stop to how they are trying to control Dauntless to overthrow the already existing government. Although the outcomes are quite different, there is a similarity in the theme of love being a catalyst to the rebellious thoughts and actions of the main character in both the book and movie. Love is something that is passionate enough to drive you into doing things you wouldn’t normally do, and both stories use it as a way to propel the character into a dangerous and new…

    In these two poems, which are self-explained by the titles (First Love and Sex Without Love), we can see that they are almost opposite poems. In the poem First Love, the persona is talking about how he felt and what happened to him when he fell in love for the first time. The theme in this poem is more warmer and more innocent, the persona talks about his most personal feelings from when he fell in love, and this makes the theme more emotional. The persona starts by saying "I ne'er was struck before that hour with love so sudden and so sweet", meaning that he had never fell in love, a very profound and good feeling, before that moment and then describes how it was that he felt through the rest of the poem. While in Sex Without Love the persona is criticizing the people that can have sex without loving each other and asks herself how can they do it. This theme is about something a lot more superficial and cold, even the author compares people who can have sex without love with ice-skaters, which gives us an image of coldness, but this does not mean that this poem is less profound because even though the theme is superficial and cold, the author describes it in a very detailed and profound way through metaphors and similes. In this poem the author leaves all the feelings and emotions behind, and talks about how superficial and cold are the people that can "...make love without love."(l.1) In this poem the…

    Don’t fall in love as a teen; you might end up killing yourself. The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare showed that being in love has its ups and downs. Shakespeare, also, in my opinion, created a self-destructive tendency connected with love.…

    In the book The Hunchback of Notre Dame the author, Victor Hugo, used love as a central theme for his book. He showed that love can manifest itself in three main ways depending upon the person. Esmeralda was in a mode of self- destruction because of her lust for Phoebus. Claude Frollo turned into a man of jealous rage because of his amorousness for Esmeralda, and Quasimodo’s passion for Esmeralda crumbled his heart as if it was made of stone, because of her death. Hugo used love as a central theme to capture the heart of the reader. He forced his readers to change their perspective on affection and admiration, in ways never thought of before.…

    Many writers have written a lot of pieces about love. But what is love? Many of them thought that it is a fairy tale which can last forever. But love is much more. Love takes hard work, patience and understanding but it can also be painful and sad. That is the reality of love.
