A Tale Of Two Women In the novel, A Tale of Two Cities, the author Charles Dickens creates distinctive characters that represent both order and revolution or wildness to show the extremes of the revolution. The character Miss Pross throughout the novel acts as a protector, a stable and sensible woman, while Madame Defarge’s actions reflect capricious and random violence. Both Pross and Defarge share common strength, although it is directed differently, which is the tie between the world of the…

Naming of place and setting in Villette- Sarcasm and Authorial Commentary Charlotte Brontë’s ‘Villette’ makes a conscious and dramatic departure from her creative norm when considering the names given to both character and place within the novel. The underlying significance of the French language, the naming of place and of character will be discussed in this essay. Indeed, Dunbar argues quite clearly that Villette is ‘almost entirely unremarked’ (1960) in this particular method, likely because…

Maybe they have to use a different name because people expect a specific story genre form that author, but the author wants to try something new. A new name is like a new identity, and some authors want to try new things such as a new style of writing…

Today, there are very little, if any, class distinctions. However, when Jane Austen published Emma in 1815, a person was classed by the family from which he was born in and how much money he possessed. Marriage between classes was uncommon and deemed degrading for the spouse of the higher class. Within the first two chapters of Emma, the reader observes the disunity of the classes. In Chapter Two, the narrator mentions that Mr. Weston's first marriage "was an unsuitable connection, and did not…

One may wonder while reading Emma by Jane Austen, who is the better suitor for Miss. Harriet Smith, Mr. Elton or Mr. Martin. I think that Mr. Martin is the better suitor for Harriet because he is properly direct, good hearted, and humble. Mr. Elton is too prideful, obnoxious, and too roundabout with his feelings.
