Purpose: Critically analyze a passage from “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty”
lina2011 [118]

Question:

Purpose: Critically analyze a passage from “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty”



Answer:

Symbolism, Imagery, Allegory


We first hear this sound in reference to the "Navy hydroplane" that Walter steers through a violent storm; he imagines it's the "pounding of the cylinders" (1). Later, in Walter's fantasy surgery,...


Setting


Of course, Walter's fantasies take us elsewhere, but we'll get to that in a minute. Waterbury is a pretty big city in Connecticut. Though Thurber never mentions the state, just the city, we can tak...


Narrator Point of View


"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" is told by an uninvolved third person narrator, though that point of view is limited to Walter Mitty. We follow Mitty through his day, and we only get to see or kn...


Genre


It's hard to deny the comic element in "Walter Mitty." Endearing, bumbling Walter Mitty, imagining himself a hero or surgeon or crack shot – it's funny. The over-the-top romanticism of his fa...


Tone


As we discuss in "Genre," there is a clear comic element to this story. Just think about all the melodrama of Mitty's fantasies. There's definitely a sense of authorial amusement to be found here,...


Writing Style


Fittingly, we might add, since this is a story about playful imagination. In "Symbols, Imagery, Allegory," we talk about the effect of Mitty's colorful, made-up jargon: a disease called "coreopsis,...


What's Up With the Title?


The title of this story reminds us that, not only does Walter Mitty spend a good part of his life fantasizing, but that his dreams are very much a secret from the rest of the world. Consider the co...


What's Up With the Ending?


As Mrs. Mitty steps into the drugstore to grab some last minute item, Mitty stands against the wall outside and imagines that he is standing before a firing squad. This is the last of his five fant...


Plot Analysis


This is the story of a naval commander.James Thurber tricks us in his opening paragraph; this sounds like a story of fantasy.It's actually the story of an ordinary man in conflict with the ordinary...


Booker's Seven Basic Plots Analysis


Booker's discussion of comedy doesn't include the same easily-discernible stages of his other type of plots. Instead, he examines a few different types of comedies and the typical traits they featu...


Three Act Plot Analysis


"<em>Walter Mitty" does not fit the three-act plot breakdown. Act I ends when the hero is fully committed to his journey, yet Walter Mitty never fully commits to any journey. You could argue that his "...</em>

Trivia


Superman was introduced to the world the same year Thurber created Walter Mitty. (Source)"Mittyesque" can be found in the dictionary! (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Four...


Steaminess Rating


<em>Yes, feel free to use this as a bedtime story for those kids you babysit. "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" .</em>

Theme

<em>The theme of success and failure is examined through Mitty's inability to live a fulfilling external life, which causes him to retreat to an internal life full of images of conquest. Walter Mitty is neither exciting nor successful in his everyday life. In fact, the world Mitty lives in seems hellish to him.</em>

<em>Hope this helps!</em>

Check the questions a listener should ask himself to judge a speaker's speech (Mark all that apply.).
horrorfan [7]
I would say that all these questions are valid and to the point though perhaps a little less so re the dress. If the speaker is logical, gives sufficient evidence based on solid facts and obviously knows his subject either being an authority on the subject or showing that he/she has closely consulted with those who are, then the speech should be well received.
