Lydia's Story By Brideau Analysis
1. The main point of Brideau in the essay is written in the last paragraph. It is about spirits of hope and determination while facing with difficulty.

2. The primary point of view from “Lydia’s story” written by Brideau is in third-person because the story is about other person experiences who is Lydia. The impact from the point of view for me as a reader is, I can imagine clearly what had Lydia face through the horrified situation as the writer use specific detail on what had Lydia gone through.

3. Brideau makes the narrative essay come alive by describing several situation specifically like the “rushing like Colorado River” to show the current of the water at that time. She also described to the readers how Lydia struggle to escape from

    The point of views for stories and passages are important. The point of view is the way the author allows you to “see” and “hear” what is going on. "The Young Girl in the Fifth" by Aneala Brazil, is told in 3rd person from the narrator’s view where Gwen is excelling in school so the Principal moves Gwen from Upper Fourth to Fifth Form, Gwen is excited and scared. "Phillis's Big Test" by Catherine Clinton, also from an outsider’s view shows Phillis’s love for poems and literature, and how she achieves her goal. The narrator's’ point of view influences how events described by a personally, yet it is from an outsider’s view.…

    The authors Purpose of this memoir was to inform. I think it was inform because in the memoir the author says “Let’s imagine one of the girls, say Sanaz, leaving my house and let us follow her from there to her final destination.” The point of view of the author is 3rd person because the author uses “she” and “they” a lot.…

    1st person point of view reveals the most about the character, it shows the emotions and the different phases he/she passes through in the story. I think that it is best that it is written in 1st person because it becomes more readable and interesting to hear a personal account. If it were to be written in 3rd person (limited/omniscient) it would not be the same and would not be as emphatic and moving. If it was told in 3rd person it would have sounded like a story in a history book. The author wants us to realize the real damage done by war on the victims and their families that are not taken into account but scar them emotionally. For this reason a first person point of view was the only way to tell the story. Flashbacks are used effectively to give us the sense of the past and help us identify with the characters.…

    1. This stories point of view is limited third person, meaning that the narrator knows everything about one character but dose not know everything about the other characters. I think the affect of the point of view used in “Roselily” allows the reader to understand the main character better. It also allows the reader to understand Roselily’s circumstances because the reader sees into her past and is able to comprehend all that she’s been through. If another point of view would be used I think that the story would lose its edge because most of the story is the character reflecting on Roselily’s past, this would not be as straight to the point as reading what’s going through her mind. An example of this can be shown through these lines” instantly she is ashamed and frightened in her superstition,” (Walker266). If another point of view was used there would be a lot of I’s and I feel’s which in my opinion would take away from the object of the story.…

    Although I am not very familiar with poetic readings and readings from our Literature book, I did enjoy and was able to comprehend the book Daphnis and Chloe by Longus because it was fairly easy wording and I am somewhat familiar and interested in Greek mythology. Upon reading Daphnis and Chloe, I found a connection to a movie and novel I have seen before. I couldn’t figure out what it was until the professor brought it up in class. It was tied to The Princess Bride movie. I remember watching this movie over and over again and now I can see why I loved reading this novel in class and being able to understand its context. This essay will evaluate the movie The Princess Bride and the novel Daphnis and Chloe. I believe both of these stories’ timelines…

    Lydia Maria Child makes a strong point when she speaks of how men objectify women in literature and base women’s value on how much the women’s beauty appeals to men. The objectification of women that Child speaks out against is quite apparent within the selected paragraph from James Fenimore Cooper’s work The Pioneers. Within just the description of Elizabeth that Cooper narrates from the viewpoint of Remarkable Pettibone, a reader will note the issues that Child mentions.…
