Melinda's Speak Character Analysis: Melinda
Speak character Analysis My least favorite would have to be Rachelle because she's so rude to Melinda,who just wants to tell her what actually happen but Melinda is having mix emotions on Rachelle now.On page 5, Melinda said
‘’If their anyone in the entire galaxy i am dying to tell what really happened it's Rachelle,my throat burns.her eyes meet mine for a second.’’i hate you’’she mouths silently.’’
Melinda is keeping her lips shut,but would most likely tell Rachelle what really happened if she asked.on page 21,Melinda says ’’she didn't even bother to find out the truth.’’’In this case i’m guessing no one asked Melinda what happened,or bothered to ask.

So far my most favorite character is Melinda.The reason behind this is i could

    Character analysis on Connie

    “Where are you going, Where have you been” is a famous story that was written by Joyce Carol Oates. In this story, Connie is fifteen years old girl and the main character. She seems to have always lived in her sister’s shadow, June, who was apparently better all-around. Connie seems to be the more attractive of the two due to which she felt that her attractive personality would succumb to pleasure in the arms of a random boy. One day, she decided to stay home as opposed to going to a barbecue with her family. At that time, Arnold Friend, the antagonist in Oates’ story drives up to Connie’s house. Connie is a character that represents the nature of epiphany in literature. Through Connie, we learn how a character can have a highly significant impact on an important work of literature and the person reading the story. Connie’s naïve understanding of the world and her immaturity led to her downfall in “Where are you Going, Where Have You Been?”…

    Let Me Hear Your Voice Anne Marie Character Analysis

    In this section of Let Me Hear Your Voice it becomes pretty evident that Anne-Marie is cured. Her development is nothing short of miraculous. The effectiveness of Anne-Marie’s behavioral intervention is occurring at a time when such an intervention was still considered by some as “morally reprehensible” (pg. 149) with the general consensus being that “Autistic children do not recover”. Yet here, after an eight-month period, Anne-Marie is able to empirically demonstrate with the Vineland test that she is functioning within normal developmental ranges for her age group with a 90% confidence interval.…

    Sandra Character Analysis

    Sandra Character Analysis

    The character of Sandra in Connie Gault’s short story called “The Man Who Followed His Hand” is shaped by the life that she has; she alienates herself from her family and community, thus making her an outsider trapped in a life she doesn’t want for herself. Connie Gault develops Sandra’s character by her thoughts and the way she interacts with other people. The party that Sandra and his husband hosted shows her isolation from her family and community. Sandra hates the party and doesn’t prepare for it; she forgets “to put the wine in the fridge” and her “hair [is] still wet from the shower” when the guests arrive (p.68). She refuses to interact with their guests, “[offending] the women by refusing to allow them into her kitchen” for instance (p68). She isolates herself because she thinks that the guests “wanted only to do what other did and not be embarrassed [and] be revealed for what they [really] are” (p.76). She expects more from the people around her but then she thinks that she should be the one to “change rather than [try] to change everyone else” (p.72). She would rather be speechless especially when it comes to his husband because there’s an unspoken anger between them. When Sandra meets the man who follows his hand, she admires him because he depends only on himself and he makes his own path. Sandra envies the man because he can do whatever he wants and she can’t. She wants to dance with the man and cry very hard; she wants to fight with his husband to break the wall that has been built between them but she remains a coward, fearful of speaking up her own thoughts and feelings. Throughout the story, Sandra’s actions and thoughts gives her a strong character, although she mainly shows it by isolation and inability to achieve her…

    Character Analysis: Laur Laura

    Laura, after teaching school and visiting Eugenio in prison, comes home to be warned by Lupe that Braggioni is waiting for her. Even though she hates his presence, she allows him to sing to her. “He scratches the guitar familiarly as though it were a pet animal, and sings passionately off key, taking the high notes in a prolonged painful squeal” (Porter 1). She fears him, as he is known for his meanness and pride; she does her best to tolerate him. For the past month he has been spent every night with her. Laura is in the dangerous mess of attempting to fight his advances without seeming to do so. His “gluttonous bulk . . . has become a symbol of her disillusions” (Porter 2) with riot and leaders. Braggioni has come to represent the disunion between her idealistic view of life and reality.…

    Justine Moritz Character Analysis

    In every story, every character has a purpose, either miniscule or massive. In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley incorporates both main characters and supplemental characters into her text. In her novel, Shelley includes supplementary characters as an example to show how poorly the lower class was treated during the nineteenth-century. Shelley included the character Justine in the novel, a supplemental character, because her story reveals how society at the time viewed the lower class, as Justine was a servant to the Frankenstein family at the time of William Frankenstein’s murder.…

    Gertrude Polonius Character Analysis

    Similarly to Gertrude, Polonius does not hurt his daughter Ophelia in a direct way. Be that as it may, Ophelia becomes more and more depressed as a result of his interventions with Hamlet. Initially, Polonius instructs Ophelia to be wary of Hamlet’s love because someone of such a high status cannot love her truthfully. Because of this, when Hamlet enters Ophelia’s chamber with his clothes all torn, Polonius falsely assumes that this is because Ophelia withheld herself from him. This becomes clear when Polonius states “Mad for thy love!” (II . I . 86). This causes confusion and fear for Ophelia which is evident when she responds “My lord, I do not know, but truly I do fear it” (II . I . 87-88). Ophelia is disturbed by the idea that she is the…

    Jenny's Character Analysis

    The main character, Jenny has the motivation to seek for a more desirable and meaningful life where she feels as if she is making an impact on her surroundings. This is seen in Neil as well but in a more literal sense due to how the snow storm has made any outside contact impossible. For instance, when the TV is still not working he states, “The electricity’s on. You’d think with a satellite dish we’d pick up something (2018). He also explains to Jenny how he does not enjoy being remote from the rest of the world and tells her, “Thanks for that. I’m still not used to it. Being so remote. Nature’s always scared the living crap out of me. Now I’m living in it. Or visiting it on weekends, anyway. You know I saw a bat flapping around out there? I didn’t…

    Having a large number of options to choose from does not in fact make people very happy. Just because certain people are more better off than others and because of this have more things available to them, doesn’t make them enjoy life anymore than any other person. This can be seen in the movies such as Tuesdays with Morrie, in literature, and in the world of sports.…
