Answer and explanation:
Character chosen for the following analysis: Mr. Darcy.
Mr. Darcy is one of the main characters of the romantic novel written by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice. He's a very rich, very serious young man that does not show any kind of interest in meeting young ladies (unlike he's closest friend) since he has an arranged marriage from a really young age.
This goes around this way until he meets Elizabeth Bennet, a young lady that will change all of his world all of a sudden, but, of course, this plot twist will show slowly along the whole novel.
Their relationships seems rough at first and they act more like two people that can't stan each other, but progressively they find out that they have a similar mind on various topics of interest. So from there on, their relationship starts getting better, more friendly, until it develops into something more.
Stage directions are very significant in plays and scripts. They add context to the play and can also help to set the scene. Stage directions can add connotations to the play that may not have been as clear before. For example, in An Inspector Calls, when the ‘lighting turns pink’ this infers that the birlings could be wearing ‘rose tinted glasses’. This further implies that when they are wearing these glasses, they do not see the real world, but when they take them off, they realise that they are not perfect and are not powerful enough to not care about anything serious that happens.
