The theme of creepy or eerie settings and disturbing villains. I feel that Mrs. Danvers actions and emotions in this chapter are almost feverish or obsessive and it's a very unsettling feeling the reader is given by it. It shows how the loss of Rebecca has majorly changed and effected Mrs. Danvers. The feeling of knowing the one you cared for deeply being replace is horrible but the way Mrs. Danvers is expressing it is quite disturbing.]]> 2021-04-15 13:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421059720 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421059733 Psychological suspense is very much evident in chapter 14 as Mrs. Danvers torments the narrator with stories of Rebecca. It creates a timid tone and the obvious emotional distress the narrator feels makes the scene all the more intense.]]> 2021-04-15 13:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421059733 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421059956 2021-04-15 13:51:10 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421059956 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421060181 Some evidence I noticed was when the narrator felt uneasy and was not really getting a good vibe from Mr. Favell. Especially because she did not know or ever hear about him. Then on top of that he came when Mr. De Winter was not there, and later said to keep his arrival a secret. Later we do find out though that this mysterious man is Rebecca's cousin, but why would there be any bad blood there? Later when visiting the grandmother the narrator expresses how the house does not look very attractive and doesn't seem as welcoming, but very well kept with a lot of maids all for one old lady. Although something that caught my attention was when Beatrice mentioned everyone really knows each other, and they don't really welcome outsiders. Could that be why the narrator is getting these bad feeling from everybody, because she is new and could be considered an outsider to some?]]> 2021-04-15 13:51:13 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421060181 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421060983 Mrs. De Winter has a fear for Rebecca. At first it started with romance but Mrs. De Winter is in fear of Maxim, because of how he acts and because of how releaved she feels when hes gone. All this stuff added together really gives her a lot of stress mostly emotional by how she wants to be like Rebecca and figure out what happend really.]]> 2021-04-15 13:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421060983 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421063889 In these chapters there is some gothic literature. It was Creepy when Mrs. Danvers kept talking about Rebecca. She was saying she did everything for her. It is also strange how Maxim was talking to Mrs. Danvers about Jack Favel but when The narrator says hi he doesn't mention it. It is a little creepy.]]> 2021-04-15 13:51:54 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421063889 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421064820 2021-04-15 13:52:06 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421064820 mccormickg8463 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421065157 Gothic literature in Rebecca occurs a lot lately in the past few chapters. In chapter 14, the narrator is put into emotional distress and a creepy setting as Mrs. Danvers is showing her Rebecca's old room. The creepy thing about it is how it appears that Rebecca had never left. The room had been kept up with very well and even still smelled of her scent. Mrs. Danvers was acting very weird toward the narrator and doing things such as gripping her arm tightly, and telling her stories about Rebecca and how she died. In chapter 15, the narrator and Beatrice meet Gran. When they meet her, it is a little suspicious because she keeps asking where Rebecca is and how she is doing. It seems that she had forgotten Rebecca's death or maybe wasn't told about it. ]]> 2021-04-15 13:52:09 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421065157 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421065238 2021-04-15 13:52:10 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421065238 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421066410 Chapter 14 has elements of gothic fiction such as emotional distress. When Ms. Danvers is talking to the narrator about Rebecca and the past, it causes a lot of emotional distress on her, and the reader as well. Rebeccas room is also kind of an eerie setting, because it is a thing from the past that now seems artificial and makes the narrator feel very uncomfortable. In Chapter 15, there is also more emotional distress when the grandmother is complaining about how she has no idea who the narrator is, and is begging to see Rebecca because she was so fond of her and loved her. this causes a scene and makes the narrator feel uncomfortable, and upset how the past is always going to haunt her. There is also some physcological suspense at the end of the chapter when we are waiting to see why there was a fight between Maxim and Mrs Danvers, and wether Maxim was going to say anything about it to the narrator. ]]> 2021-04-15 13:52:24 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421066410 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421067222 when mrs danvers has a moment of double sided questioning, as if shes trying to spook mrs de winter when speaking about rebecca "do you think the dead watch the living? i sometimes suppose she comes back to watch you and maxim" making Mrs De Winter very uncomfortable. She starts to despise Mrs danvers even more. she also believes she just must dislike her so much "hate" is a word used by Mrs De Winter. In chapter 15, when Maxims grandmother, starts to slip and go back into the past to believe maxim is still with rebecca, is very much affecting mrs de winter.]]> 2021-04-15 13:52:33 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421067222 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421071651 In the beginning of chapter 14 the narrator finds a room fully furnished and clean with a weird feeling to it. She finds dressings gowns which emit a stale smell and then Mrs. Danvers walks in. She realizes this is rebeccas room. It seems as Mrs. Danvers had been keeping rebeccas room clean and furnished . This scene represents gothic literature because it has mystery and fear.

It seemed like a really heated argument and when the narrator came in he seemed kind of sinister about it and brushed it off as if it were a secret,]]> 2021-04-15 13:57:18 UTC https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421094025 https://padlet.com/thoward47/xprsnuradqukww7r/wish/1421097540 The elements that are represented in these chapters would be Mystery and fear, Emotional Distress, and creepy settings.
