Both text have a similar theme, they both compare someone being trapped in something. Both characters want to escape what they are trapped in. For example, in the story "Boy's Life" the character is stuck in school and can’t wait until the bell rings. Which means that he is trying to leave or escape the place he is in, but he is held for a longer time because the teacher wants to discuss something with him and he doesn’t pay attention when she is talking to him which means he doesn’t have patience to listen all he wants to do is leave.…
The book and the movie for Rikki-Tikki-Tavi are very similar and different when it comes to conflict. An example of this would be when in the book, when Nagaina is about to strike, but Darzee the tailor bird warns Rikki-Tikki about Nagaina’s blow for behind. However, in the movie, Darzee’s wife warns Rikki-Tikki about the fate that he could have had. Another reason why the character would be different is because in the book, Nag knows that Rikki-Tikki being in the garden means faster death for his family and him. In the movie, Nagaina knows that Rikki-Tikki being in the garden means faster death for her…

The stories I have chosen to talk about today are Plaster Cast by Archimede Fusillo, and Fresh Bait by Sherryl Clark. I have chosen to talk about these particular stories, because the ways in which they are similar captured my interest when reading them. Both stories feel as if they are written from end to beginning. They unfold slowly, keeping the reader in rapt suspense, on the edge of their chair, until the very end, when the story takes its last breath to reveal to the reader the horrible, unforeseen truth. The authors of these two stories employed many techniques to create works that are similar in some ways, dissimilar in others. It is these different techniques I will talk to you about today.…

Upon reading the two short stories, “The Fat Man” and ‘The Monkey’s Paw”, I have found many differences and few similarities. With the stories both being from the same genre, horror, I thought they would have more in common. Turns out, different subgenres really do make a difference. “The Fat Man” fits very well in the weird tales subgenre, while “The Monkey’s Paw” fits more into the gothic subgenre. Both very different subgenres.…

A similarity of both short stories is that the narrator reveals the characters through observation which means both stories are told in the third-person omniscient point of view. This gives you a better understanding of how particular view may project a better Vision. For…
Joyce Carol Oates “The Girl With the Blackened Eye” was a narrative depicting a story about a teenage girl who had experienced tragedy at the age fifteen. The narrator, the character had endured what is believed to be eight days of physical and mental abuse from her abductor. She was violated and ripped of all her value. Oates displayed graphic and realistic detail so that the reader would have a clear understanding and visual of what had occurred. In William Faulkner’s tale “Barn Burning” was not as tragic. His story, in my opinion followed the pattern of choosing what is right from wrong, making strong decisions regardless of your situation. From this I obtained a family lesson, when Sarty became the lion and decided to remove himself from his father and his wrong doings due to his belief. The courageous boy felt and knew his father’s habit was a ludicrous act and no longer wanted part so he did what he felt was best. In some situations family members are forced to cause friction between each other or amongst themselves because of disagreements.…
Stevenson conveys to the audience Hawkins’ character development through his use of the first-person narrative. By Jim Hawkins narrating the tale of the adventure of Skeleton Island the audience gets to see the character growth occurring with Jim and also emphasizes the major themes of novel, heroism, isolated islands, language and treasure. Towards the end of the novel, by Stevenson having Hawkins compare the reality of the trip to the expectations of the quest, Stevenson suggests that the adventure really was not a quest for treasure but character growth for Jim as he experiences his first true act of betrayal. This parallels many of the modern novels about heroism in the sense that “once again the imagined world fails to materialize…
Similarities is not something that is always around, there are a few differences as well. The characters show no difference between the movie and the story. In the story, Rikki Tikki is both brave and courageous as well as in the movie. He didn’t just run away when Teddy and his family saved him. He even killed a cobra just to save Teddy and his family. There are no changes about Rikki Tikki’s appearance or attitude in the movie nor the book as he is still very brave. As for Nag and Nagaina, they are the exact same throughout the movie and the book. Nag is still cruel and Nagaina tried to kill Teddy and his family. Nag is greedy as a result of him trying to kill Teddy’s father. Nagaina is selfish by the reason of trying to kill Teddy by biting him.…

Of all the horror short stories I have read “The Monkey’s Paw” by W.W Jacobs is by far the best for creating a suspenseful atmosphere/mood. I intend to show how W.W Jacobs creates this suspenseful atmosphere/mood through the analysis of setting, narrative, dialogue and character in order to deepen my understanding.…
5.1 There are some clues that foreshadow Rikki-Tikki in ultimate victory. Firstly, one clue that foreshadows him is on page 87 line 305 it states, “Nag is dead-is-dead-is-dead!’ sang Darzee.” This is a clue that foreshadows Rikki-Tikki’s ultimate victory because Darzee is already celebrating in happiness.
