Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer Analysis
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, is a children’s Christmas song with a theme of hope and greatness for everyone that is unique. There are various poetic devices used throughout the song that lead to that message.

There are two examples of personification in places in the song. Both examples have to do with reindeer. In the first example the reindeer are described as poking fun of Rudolph because of his unique red nose, just like little children. The line read “All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names”. In the second example, the reindeer actually speak. The sleigh team now needs Rudolph and accept him after Santa Claus sees his value. They tell Rudolph that “Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, you’ll go down in history!”

A tale about a man who is greedy and grumpy and all for wealth, becoming a very kind and caring person. It is a lesson well taught of becoming a great person. All in all between the movie and the play, many differences can be sought out between the two.…

    For my Rhetoric-In-Practice (RIP), I decided to write fracture fairy tales on "Hansel and Gretel", "The Little Red Riding Hood" and "The Ugly Duckling". I take upon the role of Rory Madden, an experienced children's author promoting his newest book The Modernize Collection of Fairy Tales on his website. In my book, each fairy tale is revamped to target a modern audience and to address a specific issue with children and modern technology. My collection of fairy tales targets two audiences, my primary audience is third and fourth graders; meanwhile, my secondary audience is parents.…

    If someone asked a stranger on the street to name their all-time favorite Christmas movie, there are many that would come to mind. The list would possibly include “Frosty the Snowman”, “The Grinch”, “Rudolph”, and more than likely “White Christmas”. Although it is actually considered a musical because of the songs and dance that help to bring this all together. It is based on the ever popular song by Irving Berlin that was released in 1941, only a few week after the Pearl Harbor attacks. Originally sung in the film “Holiday Inn”, it still remains today as one of the bestselling recorded songs ever. Berlin wrote many songs that were hits, but this one is the only one that still seems near and dear to the hearts of many Americans. Not a…

    I liked the DVD better than the written version A Christmas Carol. The reason I liked the DVD better, because it goes into more detail than the party does. Also instead of me having to visualize it myself, then I can just watch the movie. I also do not like to read if I do not have to. For the people who can’t read, the movie is a much better choice for them.…

    A Christmas Carol also reflect symbolism. The main character, Scrooge, whose name comes from the words "screw" and "gouge", means hard-hearted. Marley, Scrooge's deceased business partner, represents the conscience of mankind. The three ghosts who visit Scrooge on Christmas Eve stand for memory, charity and the fear of death. By effectively blending symbolism into his characters and various objects within the novel, Dickens reminds his readers of the importance of taking notice of those around them.…
