Frank A. Clark once said‚ “A father is a man who expects his son to be as good a man as he meant to be.” In the book Cry the Beloved Country and the play Fences by August Wilson‚ this statement is made true. Stephen Kumalo‚ the father of Absalom in Cry the Beloved Country‚ is a Zulu pastor in a small town in Ndotsheni who‚ over the last few years‚ has grown distant from his son who moved to an urbanized city called Johannesburg. He leaves his house‚ after receiving a letter that his sister is sick

Tragedy‚ I classify Fences by August Wilson as a tragic play. The elements of tragedy‚ Troy Maxson as a tragic hero‚ and tragic plot were evident throughout the play. Also‚ the feeling of catharsis at the end-which is proper of tragedy‚ was clearly identifiable. I. Fences fits into the tragic genre based on the points given by Aristotle. In Poetics‚ he defines tragedy as "the imitation of an action that is serious and also as having magnitude‚ complete in itself." • Aristotle’s idea is that the plot

‘AUGUST RUSH’ ESSAY A scene I enjoyed in the film was Evan being bullied at the orphanage. It showed the harsh reality he was living in before he escaped and became an amazing musician. My reasons for enjoying this scene are the lighting‚ dialogue and camera-work. Firstly‚ the camera shots and techniques were used cleverly to impact the viewer’s emotions. The scene starts off with a shot of the moon. Moon-shots allude to horror and give a foreboding sense. You get a glimpse of Evan’s reality

August Wilson is known for incorporating four over line themes in his works. His work Fences‚ is no exception.

Honor is showed when a son who was mistreated by his father comes back to pay his respect for his father’s death. Duty is presented by when a friend must end a friendship in order to keep his
