bravery, morality, or good looks—but still manages to earn
sympathy from the spectator.

5. 8. Guerilla theater: a form of theater popularized in the United States
during the 1960s that sought to confront spectators with brief,
unscheduled, and often provocative performances in public spaces.
Performers were interested in breaking traditional social barriers in
order to convey their political messages.
9. Subject: What a story or play is about. To be distinguished from plot
and theme. Faulkner's "A Rose for Emily" is about the decline of a
particular way of life endemic to the American south before the civil
war. Its plot concerns how Faulkner describes and organizes the
actions of the story's characters. Its theme is the overall meaning
Faulkner conveys.
