Water symbolizes movement, rebirth, redemption and reflection. The father is able to realize his own mortality by revisiting "haunts" of his past with his own son.

Storm symbolizes the feeling of terror as one ages and comes closer to death. His diction ("drama","electrical disturbance", "first feeling of oppression and heat") has destructive connotations. ]]> 2018-09-24 19:24:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tylene_devine/9pu5tytpsc1s/wish/285231614 brooke_brody https://padlet.com/tylene_devine/9pu5tytpsc1s/wish/285233673 Imagery/Setting: "restlessness of the tides and the fearful cold of the sea water and the incessant wind which blows across the afternoon into evening" 
The imagery at the beginning of the short story sets up the setting of the story and appeals to the 5 senses so readers feel connected with the literature. 

Connotation: Negative connotations such as damp moss, soggy, icy garment, and kittens with ringworms show how the father feels toward his son dealing with the struggles of nature and the cold lake. 

Syntax-Parallelism: "The small waves were the same, chucking the rowboat under the chin as we finished at anchor, and the boat was the same boat, the same color green and the ribs broken in the same places, and under the floor-boards the same freshwater leavings and debris"

The parallelism shows that nothing has changed throughout time - nothing has changed. Mortality, time!]]> 2018-09-24 19:30:03 UTC https://padlet.com/tylene_devine/9pu5tytpsc1s/wish/285233673 https://padlet.com/tylene_devine/9pu5tytpsc1s/wish/285233705 Summertime motif: shows cyclical nature of time, and how time preserves some things and destroys others

Son motif: his kid highlights both what is similar between them and what time has changed since he last visited the lake

Setting: preservation of his childhood, but also shows generational evolution of son progressing as the "new him"

Dragonfly symbol: dragonflies symbolize change/self realization and its ironic when the father sees the dragonflies and comments about how nothing has changed since he was last there

Doppelgänger: the son is the doppelgänger bc he mirrors his father (like water is a literal mirror!!)]]> 2018-09-24 19:30:10 UTC https://padlet.com/tylene_devine/9pu5tytpsc1s/wish/285233705 claire_chan https://padlet.com/tylene_devine/9pu5tytpsc1s/wish/285233715 ALLUSIONS TO RELIGION:
