Write an essay explaining the importance of getting to know people before forming an opinion about them.
laila [671]
<span>

This introduces us to stereotypes, biases, prejudices and impression formation.

</span>
<span><span>There are many reasons why getting to know people before forming any opinions about them is important, significant and appealing.</span>

The primacy effect. First impressions never last. In most ways, it is important since people like us, makes assumptions based on what we see or perceive about a person. This extrinsic trait or characteristic of a person is the only observable and empirical idea that binds our belief about that individual and through this trait or elicited behavior (prejudice), we form beliefs thus we form our own stereotypes. Stereotype now, is a cognitive and mental action designed to think of people negatively but only in thoughts. These cognition or thinking leads us to either form negative behavior or total social negligence when the individual or subject is around, in most ways discrimination.

The core principle of getting to know someone is validation, take note not all of our social evaluations (prejudice) and shaped beliefs (stereotypes) are true since most of them are out of conjecture.
We ask the person, we get to know their own beliefs and perceptions and therefore, we can understand what the real root from this attitude or trait, a certain kind of personality caused by biology or sociology. </span>

Question:

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

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?

Booker's Seven Basic Plots Analysis

Three Act Plot Analysis

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>
