    The Return of Martin Guerre by Natalie Zemon Davis is a sixteenth century novel soap opera about a popular trial of Martin Guerre’s reappearance to Artigat after abandoning his wife and family for eight or more years. But the Martin that appearance is a poser by the name of Arnaude du Tilh, who is looking to cash in on someone else’s wealth until the real Martin Guerre comes back to Artigat. In this critique of Natalie Zemon Davis’, The Return of Martin Guerre, I will analyze her reason for writing the novel, her use of data, and her diction.

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Pride By Dagoberto Gilb

    One example of this in the reading was when he used this to describe the beauty and view of a horizon. He stated that so many people have come and go, limping on crutches or dieing, and were heroes from many wars. Then while stating the different wars, he uses this device to empathize the amount of people who came and went by listing the many wars with the conjunction or in between each one, such as, the Pacific or Europe or Korea or Vietnam or the Persian Gulf wars. A third use of a rhetorical device that I noticed throughout the reading was the author's use of euphemism. This is when the author substitutes a word for another that is more pleasant so that he or she does not come off as rude and can avoid conflict in with the readers of the story.

  • Pechorin Individualism

    896 Words  | 4 Pages

    In the novel A Hero of Our Time by Mikhael Lermontov, translated by Dimitri and Vladmir Nabakov, Lermontov highlights the novels protagonist, Pechorin, as a hero by juxtaposing him with minor characters who accentuate his superiority. Throughout the work we find foil characters that seem to resemble Pechorin through their actions, but rather represent a set of cultural vices applicable to 19th century Russia, that Pechorin seems immune to. These conventional individuals are often faced with the same challenges as Pechorin, but fail to succeed him in their task due to their critical flaws. When these approaches are compared to Pechorin’s approach, Pechorin’s superiority shines. Despite the fact that Pechorin lacks any stereotypical indicators of heroism, his successful evasion of the flaws that bring his doubles down, allows him to be viewed as a hero in comparison.

  • Analysis Of The False Gems By Guy De Maupassant

    845 Words  | 4 Pages

    Final Assignment of English Literature Reading BY YANG ZONGYOU, D01 “The False Gems”by the great writer Guy de Maupassant is a miracle that draws a delicate and precise image of France in the late 19th century. Written in an objective view, woven with sarcasm, this little piece of art reflects the truth of the society and humanity in its era without any obvious rhetoric, like a real old gem that shimmers constantly and gorgeously, leaving an ample space of ambiguity for readers to ponder over and over again. “The False Gems” seems to be objective, however, on the contrary, the plot of the story itself is a barrel of irony, in which the author 's opinion and emotion lies deeply — the genuine ones are found fake, while the false ones turn out to be real; knowing everything is not always good. Mrs. Lantin 's before-and-after contrary is ironic. At the very beginning of the story, everyone is convinced that Mrs. Lantin was a virtuous woman.
