First in foremost, he was a participating leader. Always volunteering for task and taking upon himself to conduct investigations. That, too, shows signs of being proactive, tactically proficient and critical thinking. Signs of an adaptive leader. He was also able to communicate to Indians and frontiers man, while also listening and observing the things around him.
6. I think that Crane’s purpose was to give the reader the feeling that they were on the battlefield with the soldier. He does not report his actions to anyone but rather describes what it looked like in the field from a soldier’s prospective. He described how the men looked in great detail after being confronted by the enemy. This was more of a view from someone involved in the battle.
The Evolution of the Mind of Henry Fleming The Red Badge of Courage is a historical fiction novel written by Stephen Crane. It takes place during the American Civil War and follows the journey of Henry Fleming, a young man who has enlisted in the war on the side of the Union. Over the course of the story, Henry changes tremendously, starting as a reasonably sane, rather prideful, but also fearful youth, and ending with considerable damage to his psyche, significant blows to his ego, but still having gained some courage. However, the most notable change throughout the book concerns Henry’s sanity, or lack thereof; this is the transformation that will be explored, and Henry’s evolution throughout the novel will be revealed.
His work ethics and war strategies brought him great success and gave him a magnificent
The realities of war and violence throughout history were expressed through writers such as Stephen Crane in his film, The Red Badge of Courage, and Federick Douglass in his writing of the “Narrative of the life of Frederick Douglass”. Both authors describe the brutality of these historic hardships and the way people can change with the affects of their hardships. Crane and Douglass expresses both the concept and theme of courage through their writing. Stephen Crane’s film, The Red Badge of Courage, follows a young soldier by the name of Henry Fleming fighting in the American Civil War. To Henry, courage is the willingness to stand and fight in a battle without fear.
Although Crane and Komunyakaa are both poets, they have their differences. Crane is writing about the civil war while Komunyakaa wrote about his experience of the Vietnam war. Crane’s historical background is inspired by reading about soldiers and their experience first handedly. “The Red Badge of Courage” is more of a psychological portrait of the main character’s perception in a time of war relating to Henry Fleming's experience in combat. Komunyakaa wrote his poem based on his personal experience of actually being there in the vietnam war serving as an information specialist.
He cared a lot about the environment that is why he devoted his life to protecting the environment. He was also very respectful to people and if he wasn't he wouldn't have made this much progress. I think those were the personality traits that led him to be so successful. I can apply these lessons to my life by being respectful and caring like he did. If he became so successful by having traits like that I can also be successful by have traits like he did!
He then started writing. He mostly enjoyed writing about the most remote and populated areas of the world.
He showed the true characteristics of a leader and a hero doing so by believing in equality and his men's determination to fight for their
Crane writes Henry saying, “‘Well, we both did good. I 'd like to see the fool what 'd say we both didn 't do as good as we could’” (205). In this small gesture, the reader is shown that Henry is becoming more and more selfless, as Henry would have taken the glory for the victory and refused to share it even two chapters earlier. Crane is sure to leave Henry with flaws, however: “A scowl of mortification and rage was upon his face.
He never questioned nor doubted but only worked. He was a model for all of us. He was resolute to work and sacrifice to the society. He motivated every single one of
Courage is an ideal created in one’s mind that can only be gained through self-acceptance. Courage can be a trait others see, however the question is whether or not one sees it in oneself. Stephen Crane’s artfully crafted novel, The Red Badge of Courage, depicts this inner conflict through a young solider in search of glory on the battlefield, Henry Fleming. Set during the Battle of Chancellorsville (1863), the raging Civil War provides the perfect backdrop for the novel. Stephen Crane published The Red Badge of Courage in October 1895 and masterfully portrayed his ‘Youths’ internal struggle.
He found the dead man seated like the tree. Crane describes how the dead man’s body was dressed in a blue uniform that had since faded to a shade of green. His eyes had also changed to the dull hue like that seen on the side of a dead fish. His mouth was open with red having changed to an appalling yellow. His face was gray with ants running over it, with one trundling a bundle of some sort along the upper lip.
