Third Person Narration First Person Narration
2,209 wordsNo one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligence greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. -- H. G. WELLS, The War of the Worlds Analysis is a delicate task, for if we a...

When I arrived I saw my girlfriend Cindy's car parked along the side of the road along with about thirty or forty others.

Due To The Fact Negative Feelings

High Social Status Marry His Mother
1,943 wordsOver the course of time, many things tend to change significantly. Such is the case of tragic literature and the cathartic effect it has on the reader, which has deteriorated a great deal from Sophocles writing of the true tragedy, Oedipus. Hamlet exemplifies partial decomposition of catharsis whereas Miss Julie epitomizes an almost total collapse of the cathartic effect. It is assumed that the higher the status of the tragic hero, the easier for the 1990 s audience to identify the characters tr...
