Love Myself Hailee Steinfield Analysis

389 Words2 Pages

I believe that the song “Love Myself” by Hailee Steinfield fits perfectly with the scene of the last meeting between Rose and Ted. The song talks about coping after a nasty breakup and realizing self-value and confidence. Throughout the book it is referenced that Rose is very much without courage. She believes everything her mom tells her, she is very timid, and in her marriage she lives in the shadow of Ted. Rose is the definition of someone who is spineless. Just like the title of the chapter she is without wood, she isn’t sturdy. Rose bends in all directions — she cannot stand alone, cannot take a stand for herself. When Rose and Ted eventually get divorced she goes into a flurry of emotions. Rose seeks revenge for what Ted did to her.

  • I Ll Open The Window By Rita Dove Analysis

    580 Words  | 3 Pages

    The concept of longing and love is presented in different ways by Rita Dove and Anna Swir in their poems. In “I’ll open the Window,” Anna Swir focuses on the opportunities that the future will bring upon ending a long, tiresome relationship. She employs poetic devices like personification, imagery, onomatopoeia, with a somber mood and reflection on her past relationship. On the contrary, “Flirtation” by Rita Dove conveys a feeling of hope and the joy of starting a new relationship through similes, metaphors, personification, and couplets. Both poems explore the idea of renewed hope that relationships bring either by starting a new one or ending an old one, while employing different stanza length, and creating different moods in the minds of the reader.

This stems from her idea that running will give no outcome other than more running, and for change to happen, you must rise about it.

  • Essay On The Rose Bush In The Scarlet Letter

    948 Words  | 4 Pages

    The rose bush grew just outside the prison doors and has been there for a very long time. It is seen as imperfect because, while it may look beautiful, each rose has its own thorns. Hawthorne explains, “It may serve, let us hope, to symbolize some sweet moral blossom, that may be found along the track, or relieve the darkening close of a tale of human frailty and sorrow” (Hawthorne 46). This quote shows that the rose bush can be interpreted differently by every reader. It can be seen as good or bad because it is by the prison and has thorns, but it also has beauty.
