    through exploration with humanity to the natural world was more effective at expressing her emotions. Raine’s portrayal of the philosophical and complex emotions is best shown through personification and juxtaposition. In the first stanza‚ Raine presents her depressed emotion through the use of juxtaposition. While Raine says she was ‘full of desire’‚ this soon follow up with what her ‘soul lacked‚ tranquillity.’ The juxtaposed ideas‚ especially focusing on the words ‘full’ and ‘lacked’ emphasises her hopeless

    “If everything when perfectly- if his health did not degrade any further‚ if the weather held‚ if Burham completed the other buildings on time‚ if strikes did not destroy the fair‚ if the many committees and directors‚ which Olmsted called ‘that army of our hundreds of masters‚’ learned to leave Burnham alone- Olmsted might be able to complete his task on time” (Larson 118). The repetition of the word “if” emphasizes the odds against the fair being a success. Each “if” adds another expectation that

    Through juxtaposition and symbolism‚ and the diction that Shakespeare uses to establish them‚ he argues that love transcends superficial conventional notions of desirable women. At the surface‚ Shakespeare uses juxtaposition to compare two contrasting images of women. He uses juxtaposition in either every couplet or individual line.

    Juxtaposition is a tried and true example of how opposites attract‚ they are essential in making potentially good work extraordinary. To understand and grasp their glory‚ one must read in between the lines. In said extraordinary works lies Romeo and Juliet. To say that Romeo and Juliet is simply a love story about a forbidden love between two star-crossed lovers is at best an ill attempted summary and at worst an insult to Shakespeare’s work and the characters as well. This is a complex story ‚with

    It was a very interesting read of both the stories I have chosen. In this essay I have chosen to compare Art Spiegelman’s From Maus and Trifles by Susan Glaspell because even when they have many things differently‚ I have found some things in common. Their way of writing is different‚ they way they tell their story is different but their passion into the story and the concept of the stories I have found them to have something in common. It is safe to say that the way Spiegelman wrote this story

    The allegory used in Maus helps me to understand the Holocaust more. Portraying the Jews as mice‚ the Nazis as cats and the Poles as pigs‚ has made the story easier to follow and understand. On page 138 there is a clear example of the allegory used throughout the entire book. When Vladek and Anja try to hide they put on pig masks to disguise themselves. This shows how the use of animals is very clever‚ as the reader can tell straight away that they are actually Jewish pretending to be Polish. The

    Juxtaposition in Art Juxtaposition can be found everywhere. Juxtaposition is comparing two things that are seemingly very different. It can be seen in pictures and paintings. It can be read in books and poems. The Untitled painting created by Banksy is an example of juxtaposition in art. In the painting‚ one can see that it is a picture of two children standing on top of a pile of guns. One child is holding a heart shaped balloon and the other is holding a teddy bear. Banksy is an anonymous street

    By describing such horrific features it creates the image of a deformed monster with ghastly features just thrown together. 5. How does Shelley use a juxtaposition of ideas to describe the monster? What effect is created? By describing the monsters ghastly features but then mentioning how straight and sleek his hair is‚ it creates juxtaposition. With such an evil face but such perfect teeth and hair‚ it becomes quite scary. 6. Why does Victor feel so regretful over his creation? Victor feels

    into movies. What aspects of the two works you have studied would appeal to an audience’s eyes or ears? Both The Visit and Maus are highly praised works of art that have a very wide and diverse audience because of their subject matter. Both pieces of work deal with dark subject matter in their own fields even though one is a play (The Visit) and the other is a graphic novel (Maus). They each have many themes such as justice‚ greed‚ betrayal‚ and romance. They are able to connect to audiences with these
