    Summary Of Hannah Kent's Burial Rites

    Kent juxtaposes the prevailing societal perceptions of Agnes of a murderess with her internal voice and first person narration to challenge the misogynistic stereotype of clever women to evoke sympathy for her. The novel opens with Agnes’s voice.” those who are not dragged to their deaths cannot understand how the heart grows hard and sharp until it is a nest of rocks with only an empty egg in it.” that established her as a victim prompting empathy for her. By contrasting this with the perspective of society and associating society’s portrayal of Agnes as a murderess and a witch with Agnes’s dehumanization “I feel the same as when I was little and hungry, as though bones are growing larger in my body, as if my skeleton is about to shiver out of me.” Kent positions readers to question who the real monsters are. When at Kornsa even Toti and Margret are offended by the visible signs of abuse on Agnes and respond aggressively to her jailors. “Every time I said something they would change…

    Heroes and Villains: Explore the ways sympathy for and/or dislike of a character is created in the text you have studied.

    INTRODUCTION: In the novella ‘Of Mice and Men’, Steinbeck has used many different language features in order to create such a complex and sophisticated character whom I will be investigating - Curley’s wife. Curley’s wife is a pivotal character. She has been presented as a villain in the early stages of the book and her character seems to unravel as we read on. As a reader, we comprehend the factors which had influenced her actions and how living in a misogynistic society has affected the way she behaves - alternating the way we feel about this character and instead sympathy begins to develop, demolishing all the negativity that was created towards her in the first half of the novella. In this essay I will be exploring the language techniques that Steinbeck uses in order to create both sympathy and dislike for Curley’s wife.…
