what upsets Scout about her costume? What literary device is at work here in To Kill a Mockingbird Chapter 28

1 answer:

7 0

Scout says she doesn't mind being a ham for the performance, but the costume is not comfortable. Scout lists the many discomforts of her costume saying, "it was hot, it was a close fit; if my nose itched I couldn’t scratch, and once inside I could not get out of it alone." We know Scout wants to be as independent as possible, so her needing help to take off the costume is a major problem for her. This also hints that there may be a situation in which Scout's costume becomes problematic because she can't get out of it along. This literary device is foreshadowing - it's showing that some trouble might befall Scout because she can't get out of the ham costume.

Answer:

I would say it's a hyperbole because it's a dramatic exaggeration, they didn't actually get split in two.

How does Star Wars fall under the space opera genre? Give no less then three examples please.

laila [671]

Star Wars is called a space opera because that’s the name of the genre. I understand that its a circular answer it that level because it does not explain how the space opera genre got its name.

Space operas have stories with showy drama that is very shallow when analyzed. There are good good guys, bad bad guys and no one in between. There are love stories without mundane dating. There are battles between empires without questioning why each side is the way it is.

There are several stories on way the name space opera emerged for the genre. See other responses for “horse opera” and “soap opera”. But I suggest the the similarity with stage operas is more apt than you seem to think.

Stage operas have stories with showy drama that is very shallow when analyzed. There are good good guys, bad bad guys and no one in between. There are love stories without mundane dating. There are battles between kingdoms without questioning why each side is the way it is. Very parallel!

sorry I know you said 3 examples but you know :|
