In Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott, the main character, Jo March, gives us a fine example of gender (feminist) theory. Because, Jo doesn’t like the patriarchy of the society she lives in, so she tends to break gender roles. On page nine Jo says ‘I hate to think I’ve got to grow up, and be Miss March, and wear long gowns, and look prim as a China aster! It’s bad enough to be a girl, anyway, when I like boys’ games and work and manners!” Jo is saying that due to society’s expectation for young women and all women, she can’t be her true self as an adult. She rather much work and fight in a war, then look “prim as a China aster.” So the feminist role comes in with her trying to break society’s role for her, when she starts to rebel and not wear white gloves to a part or be married at a proper age. Jo tries her best to defy the gender roles by arguing and negating everything externally every chance she gets, and also within herself.

Fyodor Dostoevsky uses his knowledge from epilepsy, prison, marriage, and loss to create a Marxist effect. The main character goes through a world full of hate and pain when he commits a horrible crime, murder. However, he is not caught. He continues on through life being mentally haunted by his own thoughts about what he did. The book itself shows us how Crime and Punishment are not always as they seem. For example, punishment does not always have to be physical. In this case it is all mental which is driving  Raskolnikov crazy as he continuously fights between the pure and evil parts of society. This really ties into the Marxist theory because of how the economy and entire society is functioning. It is at an all time low which helps portray the struggle the characters in the book are facing.

In the Joy Luck Club, Amy Tan shows the readers the relationship between a Chinese immigrant and an American born daughter. Using the psychological theory, Lindo (the mother) is dying and she wants her daughter to fill her shoes in the Joy Luck Club, but Waverly doesn’t find it interesting and wants to leave it in the past, which results in her mother believing that her daughter is weak and she regrets the way that she raised her.

In the text is states, " It also said things I did know, like that people called Hazaras are mice-eating , flat nosed, load carrying donkeys. I heard some of the kids in the neighborhood yell those names to Hassan." The history of the discrimination of the Hazaras by the Pashtuns continued into the socioeconomic system of the opression of the Hazaras of Kabul. There is an inequality of power shown by the wealth of Amir's father, one of the richest men in Kabul and who is of tne Pashtuns relion and Hassan whose family are poor servants . This shows the struggle of religious persecution that translated to economic oppresion which keeps the cycle of discrimination going on within the society.  -Karen Herrera

Hosseini uses Marxist Theory to show that the commonly poor Hazaras are often exploited in afghan society. In the text it states, "That Hassan would grow up illiterate

like Ali and most Hazaras had been decided the minute he had been born,

perhaps even the moment he had been conceived in Sanaubar's un-welcoming

womb-after all, what use did a servant have for the written word?" This shows that the Hazaras are so opressed that it results on a lack of education because they are deemed not worthy. This allows for other ethnicities and religions to obtain their education and control the economy to opress the Hazaras more. This allows for a history of opression and exploitation for economic gain, often times making Hazaras servants so that those who are not Hazaras can benefit from their lack of education.

In Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre," many theories can be applied throughout the book, one being marxist theory. While stuck in the red room, Jane remarks, "Yes, Mrs.Reed, to you I owe some fearful pangs of mental suffering. But I ought to forgive you,...you thought you were only uprooting my bad propensities." In this quote, it can be taken in two different ways, in which Jane feels that Mrs.Reed is trying her best, or in which Jane is forgiving Mrs.Reed due to her status and superiority over her. Because Mrs.Reed is rich, Jane may believe that she is trying to change her, just like the upper class "empathizing" with the middle class, even though they live two different lives.

Yaa Gyasi utilizes the marxist theory in the book Homegoing to show the discrimination in social classes among the black and white characters in the book. In the novel, Gyasi writes, "Don't matter if you was or wasn't. All they gotta do is say you was. That's all they gotta do. You think cuz you all big and muscled up, you safe? Naw, dem white folks can't stand the sight of you." This part of the book is detailing a scene where H gets thrown in jail for committing a crime he doesn't do, and get punished for no reason other than being black. This creates an impact on him because due to his skin tone, even though he did nothing wrong, he is put in jail. It creates a deeper meaning of discrimination and detailed emphasis on the lives of colored people in that time period.

In the novel Gone Girl, by Gillian Flynn, Amy tried to defy stereotypes that women couldn’t kill someone being that its, usually, males who commit murder. In this case, Amy was presented with the idea of going back to Nick, her husband, but she needed to make the story believable, so she proceeded to murder her “Captor,” even though he didnt actually kidnap her. On page 500, of Amy’s Night Of The Return, states, “The knife I used on him, and on my bonds, will be nearby on the floor, where I dropped it, dazed, and walked barefoot, carrying nothing out of the house but his keys- to the car, to the gate- and climbed, still slick with his blood, into his vintage Jaguar and returned like some long-lost faithful pet, straight back home to my husband.” In this quote Amy reveals how she set up Desi, her “kidnapper,” and will frame him and how perfect it all is. This uses the Gender/ Feminist theory because Amy is a woman who was seen as a feminine person, though she presents masculine triats of killing someone, which society can limit what a man or woman can do because of social norms. Amy, in the end,  shows how she is the dominant character by defying these norms.

In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, there is evident psychological theory when it comes to the dynamic relationship between Huck and Jim; whereas, Jim acts like a father to Huck while they are venturing through the river. In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain states "De bes' way is to let res' easy en let de ole man take his own way. Dey's two angels hoverin' roun' 'bout him. One uv 'em is white en shinny, en 'tother one is black. De white one gits him to go right, a little while, den de black one sail in en bust it all up. A body can't tell, yit, which on gwyne to fetch him at de las'."(Pg. 29, Chap. 4, Twain) In this quote, Huck is listening to Jim who is trying to predict the fate of Huck's father to Huck playfully using a hairball, and while the intentions aren't to be made serious, Jim's prediction shows he cares about the young man knowing he longs for a father who cares for him.

Agatha Christie furthers the plot of “Murder on the Orient Express” thorough the use of red herrings (which is when an author or character purposely misleads the reader or main character for you uncultured swine). At the time this book was written it was a common use in books and literature, thus making it a common story theme (A.K.A. archetypal theory;) ). One of the main use of a red herring in this book was the scarlet kimono that made its first appearace the night of the murder, “But to his right some way down the corridor a woman wrapped in a scarlet kimono was retreating from him (part 1 chapter 5)” this appearance seemed of value because of its bizzare timing (right after the murder) but it soon disappeared leaving confusion in Poirots mind. The scarlet kimono only reappears in Poirot's very own luggage days later “He got it down [his bag] and snapped back the lock. Then he sat back on his heels and stared. Neatly folded on the top of the case was a thin scarlet silk kimono embroidered with dragons (part 2 chapter 15).” This kimono seemed rather important because of the bizarre nature surrounding it but in fact it was actually just a taunt used to create confusion in Poirot's mind.

There are many theories that can be pulled from this novel, but I think Mark Twain has add so many points and events that tend to lead more towards Psychological  Criticism. Not only do we see the characters face throughout the novel, but as a reader, we are able to see how the characters feel and think. "Jim was thinking about his wife and his children, away up yonder, and he was low and homesick; because he hadn't ever been away from home in his life; and I do believe he cared as much for his people as white folks does for their'n. It don't seem natural, but I reckon it's so." I feel like this is a very important moment in the book because it shows how people dehumanize African Americans. It's sad to people back then would see and treat blacks like their animals and had no feelings or emotions. But in the moment of the novel, Huck realizes that African Americans or no different than white people.

In The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald he portrays the use of Marxist theory throughout the whole novel to show a distinction of class and the importance of money to those who had lots of it. On page 191 it states "They were careless people, Tom and Daisy they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made..." By this quote you can see that both Tom and Daisy were egotistical they cared for no one but their money. After the whole situation with the death they ran off with their money and begun a new life not caring for anyone or thing. Daisy who knew that she had killed myrtle never came out to tell the truth she let Gatsby take all the blame for her actions. Tom who only wanted revenge on Gatsby allowed him to take the fall as well. Tom and Daisy are a classic case of wealthy couples who will do anything to protect themselves only. The elite living the two had led, made them incompetent of accepting responsibility for their actions. No matter how much Daisy loved Gatsby she was willing to abandon it to run away from her responsibilities.

Psychological theory-
”Sometimes we get sad about things and we don't like to tell other people that we are sad about them. We like to keep it a secret. Or sometimes, we are sad but we really don't know why we are sad, so we say we aren't sad but we really are.“ (ch.109, Pg.75)
It is something that Siobhan says to Christopher because she is not sure of how he is really processing this new piece of information that he found out about his mother. She mistakenly thinks that he is hiding his true feelings about this news and she is trying to explain how he may be feeling about this new revelation. (She really should listen to him; he's told her countless times that he is incapable of telling a lie.) This connects with the real world because a lot of individuals struggle with depression and a lot of the times no one even knows because people get good at putting up a front for everyone to see.

Amy Tan helps to convey the Psychological Theory by writing about the women and their mothers separation from different cultures. With these different cultures comes different view points that individuals have based on the way that they were raised, as well as the way society influenced them to make decisions. Tan writes, “It’s my fault she is this way. I wanted my children to have the best combination.” The mother blames herself for the way that her daughter sees the world, but it wasn’t her who fully induced this as she grew up in a different culture.

Amy Tan conveys the feminist theory by describing the roles women play in different societies. Tan helps to distinguish these society’s from American culture and China and how different women provide for themselves. From the mixture of American and Chinese culture, the women find it difficult to agree with the way that they should provide for themselves and how the man should be the one in charge. Tan writes, “Then you must teach my daughter this same lesson. How to lose your innocence but not your hope. How to laugh forever.” The mother wants to preserve the girls unique self and to not have her wash it away just for a man.

On page 141 it states, "There was something about the way she was always mentioning the fact that we'd come from Hailsham, like that could explain almost anything to do with us. And the way she was always asking us questions about Hailsham- about little details, much like my donors do now- and although she tried to make out these were very casual, I could see there was a whole other dimension to her interest." The psychological theory can be applied here by Kath's id being present as she's intrigued why the veteran would be acting as such. Meanwhile the veteran's ego is what makes her look so cautiously at the people of Hailsham & her superego comes in to make it look like it's normal.

-The Marxist theory applies here due to Pip becoming one of the elite's. Growing up, he was always poor and frowned upon by society. Yet now that he has riches, he is no longer ostracized by the same judgemental society. He is seen as a breadwinner and is reaping the rewards. Although he has become wealthy, he still worries what people will think of him from his "past" life.

What did that poor old woman do to you, that you could treat her so mean? Why, she tried to learn you your book, she tried to learn you your manners, she tried to be good to you every way she knowed how. That's what she done." In this quote, it can go either way between Archetypal and Psychological Criticism, but I see it more as Archetypal.

Many literary theories can be pulled from this unorthodox novel, Psychological and Deconstruction being the main ones, as Humbert Humbert wants to be heard and seen but as well as hidden for his views and feelings from the world. He is an english scholar and uses that as a hierarchary throughout the novel to prove himself over others such as Americans with his language skills. In a journal it says many theorist see Lolita as a sattire or etc. when Nobokov clearly states it is not, as well as the theories present. "As explained above, Lolita effectively parodies just about every single aspect of a traditional novel, which has been one of the primary reasons for literary critics to deem it a chief example of deconstruction"..."the strongest associations given to Lolita over the years has been its status as a work of deconstruction, a strong theory of philosophical criticism that, in layman’s terms, involves “a philosophical or critical method which asserts that meanings, metaphysical constructs, and hierarchical oppositions (as between key terms in a philosophical or literary work) are always rendered unstable by their dependence on ultimately arbitrary signifiers”. As Sam Lloyd the author breaks down the just theories upon Lolita and said controversy, he states the facts of much deconstruction within the text. What you wont read over first glance at the novel is that in and of itself it creates its own structure of insanity one might say. Humbert Humberts life is not typical his actions in fact are not, but ends up coming together as "it should" with and without Lolita present, and the database just proves so. This connects as the novel is not for Humbert Humbert his personal gain but about Humbert and manipulation and togetherness.

Archetypal literary theory is applied to Lolita the novel as it begins to go deeper and deeper into Humbert Humberts feelings and past, confusing the readers. It may seem like a pattern that envokes deep emotion of Humbert and the readers, his beliefs are vile and immoral and feelings towards "nymphets" but this only draws the reader in. Going into intricate detail about his past creates sympathy for his actions. “I loved you. I was a pentapod monster, but I loved you. I was despicable and brutal, and turpid, and everything, mais je t’aimais, je t’aimais! And there were times when I knew how you felt, and it was hell to know it, my little one. Lolita girl, brave Dolly Schiller.” This showing Humbert is moving from innocence to experience, the reoccuring needs from his life, the rebirth of himself many times, as well as the emotion is pulls from readers as they sympathize with him.

Maybe Selfishness isn’t so Terrible...

The prologue of The Alchemist introduces readers to the theme of selfishness that weaves through the entire novel. This version of Narcissus includes a follow-up to the original myth:

“I weep for Narcissus, but I never noticed that Narcissus was beautiful. I weep because, each time

he knelt beside my banks, I could see, in the depths of his eyes, my own beauty reflected.”

It is possible Paulo Coelho included the adaptation of the lake crying for the loss of seeing its own

beauty rather than that of Narcissus to encourage readers to begin analyzing the notion of selfishness and to keep the concept in mind while reading the novel."

Throughout the story, my main character has many doubters who bring him down. In the later half of the Alchemist, it reveals a new literary theory ,structuralism. I did research for this theory and found this quote. "It works to uncover the structures that underlie all the things that humans do." This portrays the main character perfectly. Santiago is a farm boy that dreams of travel and his doubters are what keep him going. With gods guidance Santiago is capable of anything.

"The book Dustfinger was looking forwas right at the bottom.With its silvery green binding it looked plain, a poor thing among all the other grand and lordly volumes. It didn't surprise Dustfinger that SilverTongue had given this book such a plain dress to wear. Very likely Meggie's father Hated it as much as he loved it." In this quote the Author uses Foreshadowing the importance of this underdressed yet crucial book. He sets the story up perfect for an Archetypal Hero/Quest formula for his story. He writes about the characters intensely conflicted feelings about this mysterious book to imply the book has affected these charactors in a major way.

I came across a secondary source where it states a psychological theory from my novel , “They believe that Ralph represents the superego, or the part of the personality concerned with satisfying the needs of the id while still adhering to societal norms” says Jennifer Mallet Smith . https://www.scribd.com/doc/132794465/Lord-of-The-Flies-Psychoanalytic-Approach-doc
-This approach with the psychological theory comes in when Ralph and Jack are always fighting . From the very beginning Ralph tries to satisfy everyone in the group and he tries to form a civilized society .

After further research, I came across an academic journal written by scholar Elaheh Fadaee. In her journal, she conducts a case study on the paradigms and symbols within Animal Farm. Fadaee analyzes the characters and their interpretation in communist Russia. For example, the journal states, “‘Animal Farm’, chapter 1: (…Broad-minded characters of ‘Animal Farm’ are Major, Napoleon, Snowball and Squealer….): Before the revolution, broad-minded figures, such as journalists, educators, and clergies leave off supporting regime and want to have some basic reformations.” ( Fadaee Pg 23 “Practical Sight”). This evidence explains that the four characters listed are meant to symbolize individuals that shifted allegiance from the regime of Russia to the communist revolution. She also adds direct descriptions of characters to their historical counterparts such as Old Major to Lenin, Snowball to Stalin, Boxer to chinese revolutionists who were slaughtered, and so on forth. This proves that my secondary source supports my criticism of this novel with the Archetypal literary theory. Source- Fadaee, Elehah. “Translation Techniques of Figures of Speech: A Case Study of George Orwell's ‘1984 and Animal Farm.’” Vol. 1, no. 8, 17 Sept. 2013, pp. 174–181.

Though it was obvious that the story of Animal Farm could be applied to the Marxist theory, after further reading I realized that it also can be interpreted using the Archetypal literary theory. During my reading, using the Marxist theory I already applied, I realized that the story represents the rise of the Soviet Union and Stalin's communist Russia. To further my newly-found theory, I conducted research and found that it truly is a story that represents the retelling of the rise and fall of the Soviet Union. Orwell brilliantly uses allusions and characterization to do so.  According to the quote, "Beasts of England, beasts of Ireland, Beasts of every land and clime, Hearken to my joyful tiding Of the golden future time." (Orwell Ch. 1 Pg. 9) is a revolutionary song sung by Old Major, the previous leader of the animals, right before the rise of the animals. The evidence alludes to Shelly’s, Men of England, and the socialist anthem, The Internationale. Throughout this allegorical novel, Orwell incorporates these allusions in order to allow readers of all ages to interpret this story and connect it to the history of the Soviet Union.  In addition, Orwell creates the characters to symbolize individuals of great influence towards the Soviet revolution. For example, Snowball is one of the pigs, but he wishes to further animal with technological advances. Orwell uses the character elements of Snowball to symbolize Leon Trotsky, a refined communist leader who was chased out by the secret police. Coincidentally, Snowball was driven away by Napoleon’s secret police. Orwell’s use of these literary devices bring him to successfully execute not only his own telling of the Soviet Union, but directly relate to it. This proves that the Archetypal literary theory applies to this novel.

MARXIST THEORY:
This quote goes to show that there is complete chaos in their society at this moment. Furthermore, the terms they have come to deal with is in-humanistic and discriminate. It is truly unjust to take away one's happiness just to have whats called a "stable and normalized" society. The people must fight for what is right and realize that without force in the economy, it will eventually self-correct and become stable anyways.

In my novel The Lord of the Flies an archetypal theory could be represented when  Ralph fulfills the role of the hero archetype, he’s proceeds the role by courage, strength, and honor and who will risk his own life for the good of all. In the first chapter of the novel, Golding portrays that 'there was a stillness about Ralph when he sat that marked him out.' Like all heroes, he faces temptation and doubt. When the hunters begin a game that involves violently attacking  Roger, Ralph joins in, fighting to 'get a handful of that brown, vulnerable flesh' because 'he desire to squeeze and hurt was overmastering.' For a moment, it appears that Ralph is becoming just like Jack and the hunters, but despite the temptations he faces, he returns to the group as a strong and capable leader

In the novel Lolita, a french writer falls in love with a 12 year old girl 'Lolita', Humbert Humbert has many issues starting from when he was young loosing the love of his life Anabel. Throughout the beginning of the novel and middle, you begin to realize a psychological theory is within. We as readers try to distinguish why Humberts actions are the way they are, and what made him as some say the "monster" he is.
"When I try to analyze my own cravings, motives, actions and so forth, I surrender to a sort of retrospective imagination which feeds the analytic faculty with boundless alternatives and which causes each visualized route to fork and re-fork without end in the maddeningly complex prospect of my past". In this Humbert is admitting his tendencies and the audience is expected along with him to try to understand ad pin point this. For very few moments we sympathize with Humbert and that adds to the psycological aspect.

"The Widow Douglas, she took me for her son, and allowed she would sivilize me; but it was rough living in the house all the time, considering how dismal regular and decent the widow was in all her ways; and so when I couldn't stand it no longer, I lit out." (Chapter 1). In this quote I am able to see Huck getting frustrated with the fact of being inside all day. Its funny because now a days, most teenagers just want to stay in side and never go out.

"Jim said it made him all over trembly and feverish to be so close to freedom. Well I can tell you it made me all over trembly and feverish, too, to hear because I begun to get it through my head that he was most free-and who was to blame for it? Why, me." (Chapter 16). I love the words "trembly" and "feverish" because those are those are the exact feeling a person feels whenever they are excited or anxious.

Detail:
"I was sorry for them poor pitiful rascals, it seems like I couldn't ever fell any hardness against them any more in the world. It was a dreadful thing to see. Human beings can be awful cruel to one another." (Chapter 33). Throughout the novel and the adventure Huck has been, he's come to realize how cruel the world is. He sees the way people treat each other and is discussed by it. He's learned what it means to be respectful and treat people equally.

There can be multiple theories pull from this novel, but some of the main ones can be Marxist and Psychological Criticism. Throughout the novel, there are moments where the Huck feels like he's going against society and his battling against himself at times. "Huck experiences guilt and shame at various points throughout the novel, and these feelings force him into serious questions about morality".
https://www.sparknotes.com/lit/huckfinn/themes/
The blend between Marxist and Psychological Criticism creates a deep connection between the reader and the characters. The reader is able to see what kind of world the characters live in and pick out certain events they can relate to in their lives. Along with the conflicts between the characters own beliefs and morals. The reader is able to see the change in the characters thoughts and emotions.

In the novel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Twain uses Psychological Criticism to show the mental state, desires, and the motivations of the characters throughout certain points of the novel. "I know very well why the words wouldn't come. It was because my heart warn't right; it was because I warn't square; it was because I played double. I was letting on to give up sin, but away inside me I was holding on to the biggest one of all." Huck is struck with a moral dilemma with the religion he learned from Widow Douglas, the lady who had adopted Huck. He prays for guidance in order to solve his moral problems and wash away his sins, but he can't. He doesn't truly believe in the christian religion, therefore he plays "double" and in a way battles against himself.

In the novel, "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain conveys Marxist Criticism in certain points throughout the novel. The novel takes place right before the Civil war, so in this time period slavery and racism is still a problem. Twain exposes the inequalities between characters and caused by social and economic classes. "...it was fifteen minutes before I could work myself up to go and humble myself to a ni**er-but I done it, and I warn't ever sorry for it afterwards, neither." Huck, the main character in this novel, has been raised in a society where slavery is a normal part of life. But he sees the value of treating people equally once Jim, an African American friend of Huck, sets him straight after he had made this comment to Jim. This is just one of the many examples of Marxist Criticism used throughout the novel.

“I found it. I found a single sustaining thought. The thought was, You and Phineas are even already. You are even in enmity. You are both coldly driving ahead for yourselves alone. . . . I felt better. Yes, I sensed it like the sweat of relief when nausea passes away; I felt better. We were even after all, even in enmity. The deadly rivalry was on both sides after all.” Pg. 45

This quote shows how Gene is slowly becoming aware of his resentment and jealousy towards Finny. Finny is all around a better athlete than Gene which had become apparent during their time at the academy which further began to fuel Gene’s subconscious envy towards Finny. This applies well to the psychological theory because Gene develops his own coping method to deal with his resentment. He allows himself to believe that Finny is equally as envious of his own academic skills I order to justify his feelings. This rivalry that Gene has in his mind maintains his level of sanity for a long time which lets him not be shameful about his feelings toward his friend. Gene’s superego maintains these actions for a while and his ego enables him to hide his true emotions from his friend. However, this subconscious rivalry that Gene imagines also causes him to push himself extremely hard in spite of Finny just to prove something to himself. Once Gene realizes that Finny doesn’t share the same competitiveness or envy he becomes even more bitter towards Finny. This eventually leads to the cause of the entire fall incident that follows Gene’s realization.

In the novel, Lord of the Flies, it is evident that a psychological theory can be found in the climax of the story. When rivalries between Jack and Ralph occur over the conch and Piggy’s glasses, which are used to start a fire for rescue, the groups turn savage. As the two are fighting, a third party pushes a boulder off the mountainside towards Ralph and Piggy. On page 181, “Piggy fell forty feet and landed on his back across the square red rock in the sea...the body of Piggy was gone.”, it is shown that Piggy was murdered by the vicious tribe of Jack. This pertains to the psychological theory because the death of Piggy, a civilized boy, represents the disruption of order and the community. The boys had lost their innocence in a sense that they had created a horrific mentality that they didn’t want to be rescued anymore.

In the Lord of the Flies, William Golding portrays the Marxist theory through Ralph and Jack, which eventually ruins the boys’ society they have created. Like I have previously stated before, Jack and Ralph are complete opposites, meaning two different classes, the working and the ruling, opening conflict between the two. For example, on page 181, Jack goes berserk on Ralph, screaming “ See? See? That’s what you’ll get! I meant that! There isn’t a tribe for you any more! The conch is gone- I’m chief!” From this, we can take away Jack’s anger and hunger for power. Ralph is seen as innocent but is taken away from the leadership as the conch is now not in his possession. Now the tribe belongs to Jack, as the working class overthrows the elite, causing chaos and death.

William Golding, through dialogue, effectively creates a sense of realization in Chapter 5 when Simon says, "Maybe...there is a beast...maybe it's only us."
As the boys begin to panic on the island at the thought of a beast, Simon goes against the boys’ logic and admits that he doesn’t believe in a physical beast, but instead the "beast" is in all of them. Simon is referring to the savage mentality they’ve acquired in their time on the island and how detrimental it’s been to them. Simon realizes that they’ve been more harm to themselves psychologically than a beast could ever be to them and it’s themselves that they should really be afraid of.
This example greatly represents psychological theory.

"Many scholars believe that the characters in the novel represent Sigmund Freud's theory of personality. They believe that Jack represents the id, or the part of our personality concerned with meeting our primal needs. They believe that Ralph represents the ego, or the part of the personality concerned with satisfying the needs of the id while still adhering to societal norms. Finally, many believe that Simon and Piggy represent the superego, or that part of the personality associated with moral judgement."

This quote from a journal by Jennifer Mallett Smith relates a popular psychological theory by Psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud to the most dominant characters in the story. In Lord of The Flies, the main characters (Jack, Ralph, Simon & Piggy) often clash personalities because of how distinct their traits are. In the boys’ newly formed hierarchy on the empty island, each of them fulfill a specific role. Although dysfunctional, their personalities can be seen as puzzle pieces because of how well they work off of each other in the story. To have the Id (Jack) you must have the Ego (Ralph) etc. Each character has a unique role in the development of other characters.

This scene can be applied to archetypal theory as Mrs.Reed can be seen as the evil stepmother that despises the child that is not her own. Because Jane reminds Mrs.Reed of her late husband, Mrs.Reed has a prejudice against Jane, and here we see how she acts when Jane shows signs of frustration and fear.

Through a marxist theory lens, we could discern that Austen carries out the marxist theory throughout the entire book, showing that Elizabeth is being oppressed by the Bingley's sisters in the sense that they don't agree on the relationship of her and Darcy because of her low status compared to him. Even their mother pitches in, saying that Darcy thought Elizabeth to be "rather pretty". In order her to feel bad about herself and the situation that she had been put into. During this Elizabeth is also getting to see the other side of Darcy and seeing that there is more to him then just his status and big houses, that there is more that meets the eye. These examples display that the marxist is still very much there but at the same time Elizabeth is working towards breaking down the social economic hierarchy.

Rowling employs the Marxist theory here by demonstrating favoritism to one student over the others. While possession of a broomstick is typically forbidden to first years, the rules are bent for Harry, and only for him. Due to his status, Potter is given preferential treatment that no other student would receive.

Marxist Theory:
Throughout the entire novel, the Marxist theory is applied and is obviously shown or portrayed through this quote. It is most certainly unjust to take away one's freedom without any wrongdoing. One should indeed be born with inherited rights and be given the choice of what they would like to pursue in life. The socioeconomic system will indeed balance itself out without putting force on one's life. No one should have to go through what Linda goes through.

No, no I’m not, not a bit, but for the past year I’ve been saying I am… he just assumed it was true.” Amy put on a show for the readers and her own husband when she was talking about being afraid of Nick etc. When the real Amy was planning a scheme of destruction for her husband's sake when she found out he was cheating etc. The trickster came out in her after the second half of the book where we get to see the real Amy in action and the reason why she skipped town and faked her own murder.

Devices: In Gone Girl, one of the main characters foreshadows an event which will lead to a future occurrence “Mostly, though, she was scared. Someone was unnerving her, she told Lonnie.” When Nick found out about Amy buying a gun, he wondered why she was scared, therefore, foreshadowing the realization of what she was afraid of, which was Nick.

Diction: The phrase on page 185, “Maybe it was my conscience, scratching back to the surface from its secret oubliette,” represents the feeling of Nick's uneasiness of not figuring out the clue his wife had left him. The worried diction comes out more through the middle of the novel as Nick figures out more clues left, and what his wifes plans were.

Details: The detail in this novel is used to describe how Nick’s secrets are coming to the surface for the readers. “I have a mistress.” (page 193). We knew that something was up when he was receiving phone calls on a burner cell, and did not answer them, but with this coming to light, we as the readers don’t actually know how to feel about his character anymore.

"I went past the rosebushes to baba's mansion, Hassan to the mudshack where he had been born, where he'd lived his entire life." And "You!The Hazara! Look at me when i am talking to you." The soldier barked.
The Theory that is applied throughout the story is the Marxist theory. The main character Amir and Hassan are constantly being treated different due to their socioecomic statuses. Hassan is constantly treated badly because he is a Hazara, a race that is descriminized to be inferior to other races and that is seen through the history and chain of poverty of all the Hazras in the story. In the story Amir, a pushtun ,is a rich boy who is treated with respect and Hassan, a Hazara, is a poor boy who is constantly bullied showing the continuation of descrimination that leads to lack of education and continuation of poverty.

Agatha Christie uses many different archetypal story patterns in the plot of the book  and also the characterization. Christie uses stereotypes that are often seen in the world, from Americans being obnoxious ( "We've got to apply our Western ideals and teach the East to recognize them [said by an elderly American lady. Basically, imperialism] " page 27 ), to the British being reserved and unemotional ("...neat Englishman had the expressionless disapproving face of the well-trained servant" page 25). The racist stereotypes is brought up many times, even including the British/ American "rivalry" and distaste for each other, " I don't as a rule cotton to Britishers-- they're a stiff-necked lot-- but I liked this one." pg. 92

~The marxist theory fits with this section of my book. Miss Havisham is distraught and stands by the fire contemplating her life. Since the fibers of her dress are so frill and cheap, they immediately set ablaze. She's a poor older woman who was almost killed due to her not being able to afford lavish clothing. Or even clothing that isn't so thin. She could also have been tired of her life and decided to end it all. Shows how the marxist theory goes hand in hand with the psychological theory as well. Its never mentioned in the book if the fire was an accident or if Miss Havisham stood so close on purpose.

Devices: In the text it states, “Dear God,...”.The structure of the speaker’s work is the main device. Each chapter of the book is a letter. The letter is either to God, Celie, or Nettie. This device allows the reader to know what the character is feeling as well as their perspective on the story.

Diction: In the text it states, “He beat me today cause he say I winked at a boy in church”. The diction in the story helps convey gender/ feminist theory. The female characters’ diction portrays how inferior they are compared to the male characters. This is done because it shows the reader that the women think how they are treated by men in this story is normal.

Details: In the text it states, “First he put his thing up against my hip and sort of wiggle it around...”. Detail is used to describe how graphic Celie’s abuse was. It is symbolic of the mental, emotional, and physical trauma she goes through.

In the novel, The Color Purple, on page 47, it states, “Mr._____ be in the room with her all time of the night or day.” . This portrays gender/ feminist because the women in the story aren’t even allowed to know this man’s name. In the story, Mr.______ is an abusive husband towards Celie and is actually in love with Celie’s sister Nettie. This shows how poorly women are treated.

who One of the most apparent and applicable theories found throughout the first 3rd of the novel by Mary Shelley is that of the Marxist (social class) theory. After the narrator discloses an essential back story on how his parents met and ultimately created him, he transitions into speaking upon specifically the kind of individuals his parents, more importantly his mother, are. On page 88 he says, "Their benevolent disposition often made them enter the cottages of the poor. This, to my mother, was more than a duty; it was a necessity, a passion--remembering what she had suffered, and how she had been relieved--for her to act in her turn the guardian angel to the afflicted." In a sense, his mother, being apart of the middle class society, felt morally obligated to help those who were deprived of the basic necessities of life since she too had experienced first hand the oppressed life of poverty.

I found a secondary source that shows how the feminist/ gender theory is supported throughout the book and even how the author's background supports this. " One can argue that Shelly renders her female characters so passive and subjects them to such ill treatment in order to call attention to the obsessive and destructive behavior that Victor and the monster present." https://prezi.com/rgumhwh5mqz5/feminist-literary-theory-on-frankenstein/ The female characters throughout the book are shown to be strong, but still crumble underneath the male leads. The presentation also tries to explain why the book has such a prominent proof of this theory.

# data[].attributes.body
In Lord of the Flies, a literary theory that can be recognized is Psychological theory. Throughout the story, the boys’ mental state changes due to the horrific events that occur. One of the main ignitions to the children’s psychological developments is “the beast”. The irrational fear of the beast soon causes the boys to turn their decency into savagery. As seen on page 100, “We’ve seen the beast with our own eyes. No-we weren’t asleep-... This'll be a real hunt! Who’ll come?”, it is seen that the fear of an evil unknown rampaged an expedition to find the monster. However, it is clear to the audience that the beast is imaginary and represents the cruelty of the real world. The beast also symbolizes barbarity of humanity, including the self-awareness of the children.

The Marxist theory can be implied in the "Lord of the Flies" through symbolism of the conch. When the group of boys gather around to talk about their next move of survival, they use a conch to grab each others attention. We can first see this on page 23, Golding wrote, "I tried to get over that hill to see if there was water all round. But your shell called us. Ralph smiled and held up the conch for silence." To further explain, the Marxist theory is shown through the shell, giving Ralph dominance in the group, perhaps even making him be seen as the leader. The conch is viewed as a powerful object the elite have, exemplifying authority and control of the survivors.

Literary Theory (Padlet 5): The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain

# data[].attributes.body
In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, a literary theory that can be identified in this story is Marxist theory, because when Huck and Jim visit Arkansas, the town is very run down with infrastructure problems and full of lazy people, most notably the duke of the town. On page 207, Twain states "Then we went loafing around the town. The stores and houses was most all old shackly dried-up frame concerns that hadn't ever been painted; they was set up three or four foot above ground on stilts, so as to be out of reach of the water when the river was overflowed. The houses had little gardens around them, but they didn't seem to raise hardly anything in them but jimpson weeds, and sunflowers, and ash-piles, and old curled up boots and shoes, and pieces of bottles, and rags, and played-out tin-ware. The fences was made of different kinds of boards, nailed on at different times; and they leaned every which way, and had gates that didn't generally have but one hinge-a leather one. Some of the fences had been whitewashed, some time or another, but the duke said it was in Clumbus's time, like enough. There was generly hogs in the garden, and people driving them out."(Twain, Pg. 207-208) This quote displays Marxist theory because the town is in a poor condition and it is interpreted that the town is not well run by the people, more so due to pure laziness from the citizens of the town.

Device:
In We Are Called to Rise, Laura McBride uses devices such as Imagery. "Lacey's head was silhouetted against the black lines of the window frame and the sunny panes of glass." The image of Lacey at the coffee shop with Roberta on page 201 depicts a sense of contrast because the reader sees the chaos with the children in the "black lines" and envisions a future sense of peace with the situation in "the sunny panes of glass." This is significant because it sets the mood for what is to come next.

Diction:
This phrase is used to identify the subconscious feelings Roberta has towards Lacey in that Lacey is insignificant in solving the current problems with the children. This is significant because it alludes to outside help that Roberta will seek in the future.

Details:
The detail of Lacey's depiction conveys Roberta's inner thoughts and feelings because of Lacey's role in the Ahemeti case. The author wants the reader to foreshadow future character roles in how the case will play out and the safety of the children.

Psychological theory-
"I also put slugs in her socks. Dip her toothbrush in the toilet bowl. Every morning. Pour white vinegar into the glass of water by her bed."

During this part of the book Noah is explaining all the mean things he is doing to Jude, his sister. His actions are a result of his psychological resentment towards Jude as a result of Jude liking the same boy Noah likes. Noah is frustrated and aggravated with his sister subconsciously which is why he continues to torment her.

Psychology Theory:
“It struck me then that I was injuring him again. It occurred to me that this could be an even deeper injury than what I had done before. I would have to back out of it, I would have to disown it.”

In this quote, Gene attempts to confess his role in Finny’s fall, but Finny refuses to believe him. Finny is in an extreme state of denial and is unable to even fathom the possibility that his best friend purposefully hurt him. It is already hard enough for Finny to grieve the effects of his injury, but he is completely blinded by his own ego to realize that this was Gene’s fault. Gene, who had built up resentment towards Finny with no outlet, begins to realize the truth behind his actions. All the emotions that Gene’s ego and conscious had been suppressing for so all eventually accumulated to the point where Gene broke. This caused him to purposefully push Finny which led him to his fall. However, when trying to admit this, as soon as Finny turns down the thought Gene immediately lets himself off the hook by “Disowning” his action. This allows Gene’s conscious to be guilt free while also relinquishing any responsibility that he had put on himself. Although, this causes Finny to search for someone to place blame on to try and avoid the fact that he must take ownership of his actions and deal with the consequences. Overall, the psychological theory shows that both Finny and Gene avoid emotions and thoughts that make them uncomfortable or doubt their friendship.

Devices, Diction, and Detail in The Kite Runner by Khalid Hosseini

Devices - Hosseini uses devices such imagery.

The image of the quote, “...Hassan to the mud shack where he was born,where He'd lived his entire life. I remember it was spare, clean , dimly lit a pair of kerosene lamps." depicts a visual sense of poverty because the reader sees that Hassan lives in a small shack that has nothing of value. This is significant because it shows how different the 2 main characters live , one in poverty and one lives very wealthy, this is to show how race and religion can impact peoples lives.

Diction- Hosseini uses diction such as adjectives to enhance the text.

The phrase ,"It was that small shack that Hassan's mother , Saunubar, gave birth to him one cold winter day in 1964." used to describe the economic situation of Hassan at birth conveys that he is very poor since he is born in specifically a small shack in the cold. This is significant because it highlights the extreme poverty that Hassan was born into , not only was he born in a shack but a small one at that.

Detail- Hosseini uses detail to enhance the text.

The detail of Amir saying if he couldn't decide whether he wanted to hug his father or leap from mortal fear conveys his lack of understanding of his fathers’ emotions because he didn't know how to react to his fathers’ actions and displays of affection. The author wants the reader to see that there is a lack of affection between Amir and his father because it shapes how Amir’s personality it.

# data[].attributes.body
Device: Hyperbole -  In the novel, Gyasi uses hyperboles in Kojo's chapter to create a negative view authorities have on the colored people in the community. The author writes, "They couldn't tell one black face from another." By using this, it exaggerates how much the police don't care because they probably could tell black people from each other, they just didn't try or want to do so.

Diction: There is strong diction expressed by Gyasi when she writes, "He loved the look of those boats, loved that his hands helped build and maintain them, but Ma Aku always said it was bad juju, him and all the other freed Negroes working on ships." This diction makes the reader feel like there is a conflict with Jo and the way he was brought up. Jo just wants to have a sense of worth and like he is a part of something big. However, he is building boats in the book for the wrong thing.

Details: Details are crucial in this chapter when learning about how Kojo's life is working for the white people. In the book, it states, "But still, whenever a boat was robbed, all the black dockworkers were rounded up and questioned." These little details help the reader understand the struggles of the life he's living. It gives vivid imagery that even though they are freed, the discrimination is still heavily existing.

Devices (repetition): In the novel, Voldemort is hardly mentioned by name, but instead referenced by phrases such as “he-who-must-not-be-named” and “you-know-who”. Rowling frequently repeats these phrases to emphasize the lasting impact his actions have left on society.

Diction: “‘What sort of magic do you teach, Professor Quirrell?’ ‘D-Defense Against the D-D-Dark Arts,’ muttered Professor Quirrell, as though he’d rather not think about it. ‘N-not that you n-need it, eh, P-P-Potter?’ He laughed nervously”(page 70). The Professor is characterized as an uneasy individual who’s constantly on edge. The author’s use of stuttering in his speech further cements the reader’s idea of this character.

Detail: “‘Nobody in my family’s magic at all, it was ever such a surprise when I got my letter, but I was ever so pleased, of course, I mean, it’s the very best school of witchcraft there is, I’ve heard-I’ve learned all our course books by heart, of course, I just hope it will be enough- I’m Hermione Granger, by the way, who are you?’ She said all this very fast”(page 106). This quote serves to not only introduce a key character, but also to define that character and her personality. The mention of her speaking pace coupled with the length of her one sentence tells us all we need to know about Hermione as a person.

Devices, Diction, and Detail in Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

# data[].attributes.body
In Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, Miss Abbot reiterates to Jane that she "ought to not think of [her]self on an equality with Misses Reed and Master Reed,"as she is poor and has no money, and will always be poor and have no money. By forming the dialogue as a string of phrases and repetition, this emphasizes the theme of inequality and wealth throughout the book, and that Jane will never be up to status due to her lack of money. - Syntax

The phrase "the mood of the revolted slave" used to describe Jane's feelings after being ridiculed for her previous behavior conveys that Jane also sees herself as hotheaded and against the ways she must live her life. This is significant because it relates to the theme of sticking up for yourself and feminist ideals that Bronte puts throughout the book. - Diction

The image of "glittering eyes of fear" in Mr.Reed's dead body depicts an eerie environment as his eyes are full of life, even though he has been dead for nine years. The reader can picture the haunting eyes in their head, causing him or her to have fear, and maybe even suspicion of the true state of Mr.Reed. This picture can even be seen as foreshadowing for later events that will occur. - Imagery
