Light And Dark Elizabeth Jane

In Thomas Hardy's The Mayor of Casterbridge, the
author devotes a large amount of energy and
attention to making the setting of the novel as
detailed as possible. The city of Casterbridge can
almost serve as a character on its own, having its
own personality and affecting other characters in
the novel. Hardy uses the setting as a literary
device to strengthen the personalities and
complexities of characters in the story.
Throughout the novel, Hardy uses the setting
either to reinforce character ...

violent action to convey a specific message to the
readers because violence never occurs without
having a point to be made. Violent scenes often
are the most gruesome and horrific yet they can
contribute to the entire meaning of a work.
Violence in a story always has a hidden purpose,
and is there to enhance the inner meaning of the
story while offering an extremely graphic visual
to its readers. In Dantes The Inferno and States
No Exit, there are...

Dodd Mead Company 1984

Introduction The main reason why I chose to do my
report on the history of theatre in NY is because
I find theatre very interesting (As you know I do
some of it myself). I also grew up in a house full
of theatre teachers. I think this topic is very
important to people who want to learn about
theatre because many people believe that theatre
in New York started on Broadway, but that is not
true at all. In this report I would like to show
you how theatre developed in New York. Chapter 1

consider important in guiding our lives. One of
Toms important values is wealth. He was very rich
