(lines 21-23). The author most likely included this to show how heartbroken she was over the thought of her husband dying.]]> 2019-12-18 20:36:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425678978 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425682838 "... a little whispered word escaped her slightly parted lips." (line 34). The author may have included this to show how weak she felt after not being able to fight against the thing that was coming for her. By "escaping" her lips, it means the word was said very lightly and almost without her control.]]> 2019-12-18 20:46:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425682838 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425686358 "... she carried herself unwittingly like goddess of victory." (line 62). This sentence was most likely included by the author to show how she recovered and how strong she wanted to and was being. This happens after she realizes that she can survive without hr husband to lean on and she wishes fr a long life.]]> 2019-12-18 20:55:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425686358 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425688941 This text displays irony because it says that Mr. Mallard's friend Richards double checked the paper to see if it was actually true that MR. Mallard died before telling his wife. It was revealed later in the story that he had not died, making the fact that he "ensured the truth" very ironic.]]> 2019-12-18 21:02:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425688941 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425690241 This sentence shows irony because it says that she will live for herself in the coming years, but she ended up dying not even a day after she had that thought.]]> 2019-12-18 21:06:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425690241 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425691776 This is irony because, even though originally she wished to die soon she ended u coming around and wanted to live fr many years. Yet, the minute she decides this, she has a heart failure and dies, fulfilling her original request, not the one she wanted in the end.]]> 2019-12-18 21:10:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425691776 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425693897 The main character of this story (protagonist). She is a dynamic character, because in the beginning of the story, she was weak and helpless and had no will to keep living for much longer, "Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the news of her husband's death."(line 1-2). Closer to the end however,  she starts to feel strong and wants to have a long life, even without her husband there. "There was a feverish triumph in her eyes, and she carried herself unwittingly like a goddess of Victory."(lines 61-62). Both of these are examples of indirect characterization.]]> 2019-12-18 21:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425693897 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425694038 A supporting character who was there to help Louise through the heartbreak of losing her husband. She is a flat character in this story, because she only showed one emotion, which was concern for her sister. " Josephine was kneeling before the closed door with her lips to the keyhole, imploring for admission. 'Louise, open the door! I beg; open the door-you will make yourself ill. What are you doing, Louise? For heaven's sake open the door.' "(lines 53-55). This is indirect characterization.]]> 2019-12-18 21:16:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425694038 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425694109 A supporting character in the story, Richards is the one who finds out Mr. mallard had died. He is more of a static character because his attitude doesn't change. He was a good friend, and was curious as to if his death was the truth. "It was he who had been in the newspaper office when intelligence of the railroad disaster was received, with Brently Mallard's name leading the list of the 'killed'. He had only taken the time to assure himself of its truth by a second telegram, and had hastened to forestall any less careful, less tender friend in bearing the sad news."(lines 4-8). This is an example of indirect characterization.]]> 2019-12-18 21:17:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425694109 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425694178 The "dead" husband of Mrs. Mallard, Brently only shows up near the end of the story. He is a static character, because he only displays one emotion during the story. He was surprised by how his wife reacted to him coming home. "He stood amazed at Josephine's piercing cry; at Richard's quick motion to screen him from the view of his wife."(line 67-68). This is an example of direct characterization.]]> 2019-12-18 21:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425694178 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425733335 Louise vs Louise.

She took this news especially hard because her heart was already weak due to a heart problem. For a while she didn't think that she could keep on living without her husband. After lots of time thinking, Louise had decided that she would appreciate what she had. Finally, he rejoined her friends, when there was a knock at the door. It opened to reveal Mr. Mallard, the "deceased" husband. Overwhelmed with emotion, Louise's heart gave out and she passed away.]]> 2019-12-19 00:16:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/425733699 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/426346487 This piece of imagery shows how overwhelmed by grief Mrs. Mallard is by the loss of her husband.]]> 2019-12-20 20:42:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/426346487 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/426347083 This imagery helps the reader picture how Mrs. Mallard usually looked, and how she was respected and had dignity.]]> 2019-12-20 20:46:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/426347083 mia_wallace3 https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/426348100 This example of imagery shows how welcoming of the idea of death Louise is in this moment.

This shows that nothing is for sure and if you wish for something bad to happen, it might when you least want it to.]]> 2019-12-20 20:54:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mia_wallace3/kb56ndij0l2z/wish/426348997
