velikii [3]3 years ago

We use personal pronouns in place of noun phrases. We often use them to refer back to people and things that we have already identified (underlined):

<span>Peter complained to the chef about the meal. She wasn’t very helpful so he spoke to the manager.</span> (she = the chef, he = Peter)

<span>A:<span>Where’s the knife? I can’t find</span> it.B:It’s in the drawer. (it = the knife)</span>

Personal pronouns show person and number. He, she, him and her show gender. They have different subject and object forms (except you, it and one which have only one form):

Pronouns <span>function as noun phrases in place of nouns, so instead of writing 'Sarah' you'd replace it with 'she' rather than repeating the name again and again. You'd also replace, for example, 'Sarah and Adam' with 'they,' 'Adam' with 'he', etc. </span>

In Emily Dickinson’s poem, she uses metaphor, likening the notion of hope to a bird that flies despite “the storm”, the cold of “the chilliest land” and the isolation of “the strangest sea” and because such metaphorical bird “flies” inside one’s “soul”, such hope is personified. In Finding Flight, the process is similar although here the text is not a poem but a story in prose. The device of remembrance of the figure of the late grandfather turns a hummingbird into a symbol of hope for the narrator. There is no metaphor here but actually symbolism. The hummingbird symbolizes both hope and the memory of the beloved grandfather who has “passed”. The bird “gives hope” both to the grandfather and the granddaughter. The plot structure is the same for both works, a reflection on the luminosity of hope, then a period of hardship that tests hope and then the resilience of hope despite all the troubles and darkness of life.
