Writing Portfolio The 2001 biopic/drama film ‘A Beautiful Mind’‚ directed by Ron Howard is a prime example of a text in which visual and verbal techniques are used to develop the personality of a character. An important job for the director of any film is to establish a framework and personality for the protagonist. ‘A Beautiful Mind’ is no different‚ and visual and verbal techniques are used effectively to develop the personality of John Nash.

Hamlet Trial Response The aspect of Shakespeare’s Hamlet that is most interesting to me is the playwright’s intimate depiction of Hamlet’s daily struggle againt the world. Through soliloquies and characterisation‚ we see that Hamlet’s world is a cold‚ political one‚ unreceptive to his grief‚ and this fundamental incompatibility is ultimately what creates and drives the play’s great drama behind his struggle‚ his murderous plot‚ uncertainty‚ and finally his thoughtful‚ accepting resolve at the end

In her novella‚ Ethan Frome‚ Edith Wharton uses characterization to indicate that Mattie Silver is lively and innocent‚ which is refreshing to Ethan Frome after managing Zenobia’s sickliness and bothersome personality. Mattie’s last name‚ Silver‚ compares her character to the precious metal: bright‚ valuable‚ and a luxury. Ethan greatly values being in her presence‚ as “no moments in her company were comparable to those when [...] they walked back through the night to the farm” (Wharton 13). Additionally

Wuthering Heights deals with the very nature of controversy and paradox. The novel expresses deep criticisms of social conventions‚ and Brontë uses her characters in their incongruous surroundings to exemplify her concerns of the strict social code which she herself was expected to abide by‚ whilst remaining true to the principles she considered most important. Wuthering Heights challenges orthodoxy with heterodoxy‚ of which destruction and chaos triumph over social pretensions. The most undeniably

Edgar Allan Poe’s use of character in his short story “The Tell-Tale Heart” has left me wondering. The reason it left me wondering is because of the way the character acts. The character changes throughout the whole short story. The meaning of “character” is an imagined person in a fictional story. The author then invests the character with moral and emotional qualities. The importance of the character is determined by what he or she does. The main character as well as the minor characters are
