    The dramaturgical perspective involves the use of symbols and how the symbols are used to create an impression to the audience. The article selected from The Star online newspaper about a Black Canadian, Jermaine Carby, who was shot and killed by a police officer clearly demonstrates that the symbols can frame public discussion of police. Nonetheless, the police themselves are also dramatic, which influences how the media creates an imagining of the police. Using the dramaturgical perspective, it is evident that the media and the police have a symbiotic relationship, whereby each institution influences the other. With that said, both police duties and the image of police within the media reinforce enduring features of police culture including…

    The word choice in this scene is very simple, consisting of many feeling words and monosyllabic words. Beth and Doug struggle to communicate their feelings, so they use simplistic words to fill space until they know what they should say. A lot of the time, they repeat words that the other says, in order to wrap their head around what they are hearing. When Doug or Beth explains their feelings, they use more complex words.…

    “My Last Duchess” by Robert Browning is a poem written in the form of a dramatic monologue. In it, the speaker describes the portrait of his late wife to the servant of a prospective bride’s father. Throughout the description, the speaker’s sociopathy is made increasingly clear, with the heavily implication that he was the actual cause of the wife’s demise. Browning reveals the prideful, control-obsessed, and sociopathic character of the speaker through self-boasting, caesuras in the monologue, and the varying levels of politeness he exhibits throughout the poem.…
