Mockingjay

book, including Gale, Peeta, and Prim, but the one that I would like to be, is Katniss Everdeen, Katniss Everdeen is the main character, in all of the series. There are two more books. The sequel is “Catching Fire” and the third and last book is “Mockingjay”. In each of these Katniss is the main character in each of the books. The reasons why I want to be Katniss, is that she is brave, and stubborn, I kind of am like her already, but she was older. The books kind of reflect the way of life in a…

designer, Cinna, like a mentor, “shapes” Katniss into the image of the “Girl on Fire” an act which Haymitch even remarks as having “just the perfect touch of rebellion to it” (Collins 79).

Thus, as in lecture, I believe that where Haymitch is potentially…

we should always be in search of loyalty. A thousand disloyal friends does not compare to one loyal one. They will stand by your side and never leave and always have your back. The key part of a friendship is Loyalty as shown in Romeo and Juliet, Mockingjay, and the friendship of Dwayne Wade and Lebron James. During the worst of times when Romeo lies slumped in sadness his dear friend Benvolio still stays by his side in his time of need. We see this when Benvolio states “At thy good heart's…

she did by hunting and gathering. Lastly, after his passing, mockingjays become a fond idea to Katniss because it is connected with the good memory, "My father was particularly fond of mockingjays. When we went hunting, he would whistle or sing complicated songs to them and, after a polite pause, would sing back," (Pg. 43). Katniss later uses this knowledge of Mockingjay to communicate with Rue. In addition, however, she uses mockingjays now as a symbol of protection in the quote; "It 's like…

In Mockingjay, instead of trying to help out as much as she could, she chose to wallow in self-pity. This was ironic because she criticized her mother for acting the same way in the first book. I understand that her age may have played a role in that, but when…

The complex relationship between the authority and the individual within a society, is displayed when individuals must abide the rules and guidelines, without losing their personal identity. Individualism is a trip of self-discovery and individual growth that has a lasting impact on the individual’s future. Authority acts as a guide, but shouldn’t be accepted at the expense of finding one’s individuality. However, if the balance between the two groups are disrupted, conflict arises, resulting in…

Hearing that your favorite book has been turned into a movie can either be the best news in the world or the worst. More often than not, it's the worst.

even he doesn’t want the Capitol to win. Katniss and Peeta visit other districts as victors and plan their public wedding. While they put up with President Snow’s plan of the wedding and visits, Katniss fuels the rebellion inadvertently and her Mockingjay pin becomes a symbol for it. President Snow comes up with the idea of a special edition of 75thHunger Games-The Quarter Quell where all the previous victors have to participate; this forces Peeta and Katniss to participate in the Games again.…

The Hunger Games is a great film to tie this course all together at the end. Throughout this course we have learned many key terms and concepts that help us better understand the world and help people realize they are always part of something bigger than themselves.

The terms I will be using to relate sociology to The Hunger Games are the One Thing, fear-mongering,…
