Who is Nefertiti? Some might say she is the loving wife of Akhenaten, some might say she was the most power hungry and ambitious person.

Updike makes widespread use of personifying. The street Flick works on is personified as “running,” “stopping,” “bending,” and being “cut off” before it has a “chance” (Updike). All of these images similarly apply to Flick. The gas pumps are personified as “idiot pumps,” similar to guards in basketball. Only Flick’s, lost in his daydreams, could pass by the pumps; imagine them as guards on a basketball team.

In The Veldt created by the one and only Ray Bradbury, he uses multiple examples of author’s craft such as personification and tone or mood. These crafts were written into the story to help prove and point out the theme of influencing children with so much technology early on can not only stir up violent thoughts but, can also cause breaks between friend and family relationships. The first author’s craft that can prove this theme to be true is personification. One example is, “the walls began to purr and recede.” Although walls can not do this, Ray Bradbury uses it in his story to show how much technology the family living in the Happy Home have given to their children.

As Jack’s moral character deteriorates, it brings his savagery to the surface, allowing the remnants of civilization to be forgotten. In the beginning of the novel, a group of young boys find themselves alone, without any adults, on an island after

In¨The Veldt¨ Ray Bradbury uses Personifications to bring his story to life. In ¨The Veldt¨ they rely on machines to do everything from doing dishes to tying shoe laces. They call it a happylife home but is that “happylife home” really a “happy life home” ? They soon have to rely on the machines to do everything for them, they cannot think on their own.

Personification was a very good way of making a dimple scene fell like a very intriguing one. One example of this is in the beginning when he describes the way the walls were in the nursery. “The walls began to purr and recede into crystalline distance. This shows that Bradbury could use craft moves to describe a scene very

“Exuberant, jubilant green/of new grass”(lines 3-4). Grass cannot be exuberant and jubilant but it can be extremely bright when spring has just arrived. The next quote is a perfect usage and example of personification. “A storm that walked on legs of lightning,/dragging its shaggy belly over the fields”(lines 13-14). A storm cannot have legs or shaggy belly, but this personification is used to create a more vivid picture in your mind.

Personification was used to show that the earth is similar to the feelings humans express; “the earth has guilt and care,” (line 13) and “though there be fury on the waves” (line 3). By expressing that the earth has guilt and care is personification understanding that the literal earth is not capable of expressing these feelings. When the author says, “though there be fury on the waves beneath them there is none” (lines 3-4) Hawthorne means the waves are wild, loud, and furious. Waves, however, cannot have fury, that is a human

This paper is a brief critical analysis of James Cameron’s Avatar, a very successful 2009 science fiction film. The film Avatar takes place in the virtual world or moon of Pandora, created by James Cameron with digital technology and colonized with fantastic creatures and an indigenous race of 10 feet tall, yellow eyed, blue striped aliens called the “Na’vi”.
