of the phonemes in ‘at night he liked’ (Faille, 2013, p. 12) and in ‘Jeremy’s new feathers’ (Faille, 2013, p. 16) add musicality to the words whilst lexical cohesion is evident when discussing the appearance of Jeremy, supporting the theme of the narrative (Mallett, 2016, p. 201) and the…

refers to his Mr Hurst, who is merely ordinary compared to Mr Bingley. Mr Darcy causes a further rise in enthusiasm, but then also hits a crisis point and denouement when we discover his fatal personality flaw, which then leads to a fall in the narrative structure. This can be compared to the realistic effect that a person experiences when they discover that the assumptions they made about someone are wrong. The author also uses various poetic techniques such as irony and contrast to create…

I like the issue chosen for this story. I have a friend dealing with getting her citizenship now. The story contains relatable elements that apply differently to people. I understand wanting to walk away from my problems and trying to slow my thinking to calm down while my friend would relate to the immigration issue. However, since the situation deals with this serious issue, the realism is enhanced. I also like how the exposition is told through the dialogue. Using dialogue as the method to…

each explored through the use of settings. Settings such as Hanna’s bathtub, the concentration camp and the courtroom and the woods are each used to emphasise a central idea. Schlink uses stylistic devices such as symbolism, analogy, allusion and narrative point of view to communicate these ideas and accentuate the central ideas conveyed in the novel through setting. One of the central ideas explored in the novel The Reader by Bernhard Schlink is human behaviour and guilt. Schlink uses the…

stories, it took over one hundred years to reach the point technological advances the industry has reached today. It has expanded vastly to quickly become the world’s most preferred medium of storytelling. However, the newest technology in visual narrative is virtual reality.

emphasises sympathy towards the characters as another purpose for its creation. Hillcoat uses aural and visual modes such as camera angles and shot depths; whereas McCarthy uses a range of writing conventions such as imagery, figurative language and narrative features. Theses two texts have depicted a society of which is so terrible that it makes two protagonists become cherophobic. McCarthy has made an excellent piece of writing art…

excludes. An author often incorporates a variety of stylistic tools in order to strengthen the story’s message. They purposefully weave symbols into their stories that represent something larger than the simple material object. A writer uses his or her narrative style to intricately build meaning into the narrariation of the story. When constructing a story, a writer creates the perfect characters to act in his or her story. Ernest Hemingway flawlessly integrates these components in Hills Like…

Contentious films have a tendency to be contentious as a result of having something interesting, but unpopular, to say. Such is the case with Jason Banker’s Felt. Having had an equal share of laudations and condemnation, Felt clearly strikes a nerve worth talking about in the ongoing dialogue of bringing feminist rhetoric to a traditionally male-dominated popular culture. Unfortunately, the limitations of Banker’s style hinder Felt’s conceptual weight. Part-autobiographical and part dark…

Code Book by Simon Singh both cover the topic of spies and encryption, but hey have their own way of telling that information. Both pieces of writing are able to tell information clearly although by using different methods. The Dark game has a narrative style by telling the story of a woman spy. They telling the readers the information thrown a story. The codebook has an expository style that explains and describes the history of espionage. This type of text is more for telling information…

Vonnegut chose to portray this war story through the use of a non-linear narrative structure. By doing this he is able to use flashbacks as “time traveling”. This story shifts back and forth between the past, present, and future since there is no chronological order. This novel ranges from the years 1922-1976. The narrative shows Billy’s war experiences from 1944-1945, but then skips around his whole life, from early childhood to his death in 1976…
