emily's essay
For our group project we choose " a rose for emily". A rose for emily does not have morally good protagonist or antagonist. The protagonist of the story emily's character is shaped by circumstances of her life. All of our lives are shaped by how we brought up and the circumstances we are surrounded by. some might see her as a bad person for what she did. but is it entirely her fault? did people who brought her up had anything to do with it? These are questions we can ask ourselves too. Do we see anything in us that we should change in our life, no one is perfect. Emily did not change anything in her life for the life to be good. Her legacy might be seen as someone who failed in a relationship, with townspeople and in life. what is our legacy? as a people we are able to think, change and stir our life to the direction we want.

Hello Merv,
ReplyDeleteI think Emily was an immensely sentimental woman who deeply loved her husband and couldn't part with him or perhaps didn't know how to detach herself from him in a physical sense. Townspeople are nothing more then spectators who are nosy neighbors wanting to get the latest news in order to fulfill their boring thankless lives. There are so many avenues to can write this paper on especially how rich the characters are. Good Luck on your paper.

Thanks Helene.
ReplyDeleteI think Miss Emily had a psychological problem. She was a very odd woman. But we did choice a good essay I agree with you! It's a crazy story that no one really understands so we can break it down for them.
