Nukkin Ya isn’t afraid to pull any punches, it truly is a very ambious book. Nukkin Ya is gravely great. This is particularly identifiable, when it goes into deep, hugely relatable and rather complicated messages about teenage years, and sometimes feeling different among others at his school. That all revolve around symbolising and belonging and self-knowledge messages. It becomes that jarring, just how well it portrayed these messages. Among others, the tides of the ocean, makes for Symbolism in the setting, as evident by our protagonist moving around and eventually getting on with it. This makes a great use The Nukkin Ya novelization, is a very confidently constructed novel, which is enhanced by the use of devices, these being Symbolism and …show more content…
The message of the text really enforces the message of moving on. I came to this assumption due to the way the book portrayed Clarence and how she was forced to unfortunately come to terms of having to move on. Beyond that, the necklace has a real cultural resemblance to the Jamaican. I gathered this information through the way Clearance is portrayed in the novel, just the inept way he’s character is and her ultimate descion making process, all set course for the gathered ideas. Evidence of this is when Blackey falls for her and the basic fact that she is Dumby’s sister. Blackey had the up most love for her and that’s where the necklace comes into play. I think that this has a great effect on reader and effects them to understand the fact of having to move on. This plays into the idea of moving on, due to Clearance and her relationship with Blackey. This is the implication on the reader, and it really paves the way to enforce the idea. A alternative use of Symbolism, is the use of Ketch. …show more content…
To elaborate, it’s a whale, that’s meant to represent Gary’s self-esteem, the utterly strange sensibilities, his weirdness and Aboriginal tradition/knowledge and so forth. Evidence of this is when Blackley finds this whale and you kind connect the pieces in your head about how it’s really got more of a personal value, instead of a whale. It really shows Blackey coming to terms with himself, and this is definitely apart of growing up. When you get older, you start to learn about yourself and the whale helped this. The effect on the reader is that Blackey is growing up and that he’s learning about himself. This is important, as it shows real character development. In summary, all three of these devices, all call for one similar message.

The production of Honky is a satirical comedy, following the lives of five people and the language of racism. While it focuses on the plot of 5 characters, the storyline was well thought out and intriguing. One actor in specific, Gerard Joseph, who played Thomas, did an exceptionally well job at conveying emotion and projecting to the audience, in my opinion. The overall directing, from the actors to the soundtrack and lightning, seem to be presented with excellent detail. Overall, this production was well done.

The play “A Raisin in the Sun” by Lorraine Hansberry has many interesting characters. In my opinion, the most fascinating character is Ruth because of her many emotions and captivating personality. She goes through extreme emotions in the play such as happiness, sadness, anger, stress, and confusion. Ruth is very independent, firm, kind, witty, and loving.
Defining the American character is quite difficult because American identity is vaguely founded on shared values and ideologies, more so than a particular creed, race, or culture. In order to describe the American character, we will consider the dominate and distinctive qualities of Americans as interpreted by J. Hector St. Jon De Crèvecoeur and Thomas Paine. First, we will examine how Crèvecoeur illustrates Americans as industrious, prideful, and political in “Letters from an American Farmer.” Then, we will analyze from Thomas Paine's “Common Sense” how he depicts the prevalent qualities of Americans to be driven by justice, liberty, emotions, and individualism. Also, because both authors consider the American character and culture different
Piaget believed that a child’s development is neither intrinsic (learning based on interest) or extrinsic (learning from an outside force, such as a parent). He believed that a child develops based on his or hers interactions in the environment (Mooney 2000). Piaget created four stages of cognitive development, some of which can be seen in the film “Cheaper by the Dozen”. A few examples of characters that display Piaget’s theory are the twins, who are in the preoperational stage and lack the concept of conservatism, and the mastermind, who is in the concrete operational stage and show's the concept of decentralism. These characters will have Piaget’s theory applied to them in the following paragraphs.

2. The way that I feel about the characters is most of them are brave and strong. The way that they could just look at shawn and not see him as someone that is dead inside but a human being. The characters that I liked in the story were the mother, Paul the brother, and Cindy the sister because they They really understood who and what shan is like on page 17 when Cindy watch the dog die she became more aware of her brother Shawns condision and realized death for the first trime getting scared that was going to be her brother. The one character that I didn't like was Shawns Father because he just walked away. He walked away from his proplems and that to me is week I do know that it must of been hard looking at Shawn like that but nobody else walked away.
Hardik Rao is the character that I chose for "The Lab." He came to this laboratory as an undergraduate student and had been working here for his post-docs. His work revolved around a protein called Caveolin 3, a protein that has been emphasized from previous research studies to be important in insulin signaling. It had been four years of post-docs, Hardik thought he would know everything, but sometime he was just not sure about the experimental data. He could ask his PI, Dr. Hutchins, for advice, but Dr. Hutchins had a lot of things on his plate, and he seemed to favor another grad student that had been producing outstanding results in the laboratory, Greg Anderson. Hardik wanted to make some good results to satisfy Dr. Hutchins' expectation as well as getting his credentials so he could go back to his home country in India. However, things just seemed to not turn out in a good way with Greg constantly getting publication on his results. Moreover, Hardik's wife, Neha, was pregnant, and she was disappointed with the fact that Hardik spend more time with his
Noah is the one of the main characters of The Notebook. He is the hero of this novel. Noah represents true love and true loyalty. In a way, The Notebook is similar to every modern day romance movie, and Noah represents the “dream man” that all the girls always imagine of having. The characters in movies are used to symbolize ideas, and in this novel, Noah represents true, faithful, committed love. Noah remains loyal to Allie even in the situation where he is unsure whether they will ever meet again or not.
In the novel Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen, Juli is a very smart girl. Juli Baker shows her wits and smarts a lot throughout the novel. Juli used her wits and smarts when the people were going to cut down the sycamore tree. Sadly it didn’t execute as she thought it would. She knew that they wouldn’t cut down the tree if there were kids in it, she asked Bryce to come up in the tree with her, but none of them would. But she did the prevent the tree execution from happening later than it was scheduled. One piece of evidence is that Bryce was not the best speller in the class, Juli instantly gave Bryce the answers so that they wouldn’t have to go to lunch detention with their teacher, Mr. Mertins. She knew each question right away. Another reason
The Necklace also displays distinctive realism in the use of socioeconomic influences which are essential to the plot. The major conflict in the story would be absent and the theme would not be obtainable without Mathilde Loisel’s insecurity about her own socioeconomic reputation. An example of Loisel’s self-deprivation nature is presented when she realizes she does not have a necklace, she says “I shall look absolutely no one. I would almost rather not go to the party” (Maupassant, sec. 3). Another example of the self-conflict caused by social pressure is Loisel’s immediate attempt to replace the necklace and her reluctance to speak to her friend Madame Forestier about the necklace for ten whole years. If she were not conflicted by societal pressures she might have avoided the whole situation altogether. The Necklace establishes a realistic difference in value between the necklaces and proposed clothing. Her husband proposes flowers which were valued 10 franks so in any case if she had chosen the flowers there would have been an insignificant economic loss. Her decision not to tell her friend about the necklace ends up costing her seven times the worth of the original. The roses symbolize the simpler things in life to the theme of the story. Mathilde Loisel’s withered appearance at the end
