Point Of View Choice Of Words
587 words

Hebert, the diction of words and point of view
allow each paragraph to present a different tone
and atmosphere to the reader. This is evident when
the first two paragraphs switches from third
person to first person, as well as the choice of
words within the second and third paragraph which
as a result provides a different tone to one

Madame Bovary Is A Universal Text
1,052 words
GUSTAVE FLAUBERT ONCE REMARKED, Madame Bovary,
cest moi (Madame Bovary is me). On the surface,
this comment seems ridiculous; the circumstances
of Flaubert's life have nothing in common with
those he created for his most famous character.
However his reasons for writing and the techniques
he administers in portraying his characters make
it obvious that he was the basis for the character
of Emma Bovary. Of course he failed to add that so
are you and I, we are all the victims of
unrealized or unre...

Tale Of Two Cities Lucie Manette
1,141 words
In many books and movies, women take a backseat
when it comes to being characters of strength or
impact. They are most always presented as the
weaker of sexes, and can usually be found in a
vulnerable position waiting to be rescued by the
stronger, more appealing male hero. To find a
woman of strength in a book written before the
womens rights movements of the 20 th century, it
would take a bit of scouring and detective work.
Yet Charles Dickens provides multiple unnatural
female characters in A...

are practically no modern day duels. Anyone asked
to define the word would be able to conjure up the
image of two men standing face to face, for the
purpose of settling a dispute and very likely
leaving one of the men dead. The portrait of the

Madame Bovary Charles Bovary

Gustave Flaubert presents one extreme side of
human life many would very much rather think does
not exist. He presents a tale of sensual symbolism
within the life of Charles Bovary. Madame Bovary
is the story of Emma Bovary, but within the scope
of symbolic meaning, the make-up of Charles is
addressed. It is representative of deep sadness
and a despondent outlook on life whose many
symbols are, at times, as deeply embedded in the
story line as a thorn in a callous heel. The
elements making up th...

Although Dangerous Liaisons and The Princess of Cl

many differences in the two novels are apparent to
the reader. Both stories describe a virtuous woman
tempted by the love of a man to forsake her
doctrine, but while each tells of a woman who
thinks her resolutions can hold out against a man
who adores [her] (de La Fayette 156), there is a
definite divergence in the tone used to relay the
message. These differences stem from the
inevitable biases...

convey emotions. The composition of the work
consists of a portrait of Madame Matisse in the
