A foil is a character that is compared and contrasted with the protagonist to highlight or provide insight into the protagonist's traits. Some common foils have opposite characteristics from the protagonist in areas like appearance or personality. Foils are used to set off and shed light on the protagonist and their actions in a story.
A foil is a character who contrasts with another character to highlight particular qualities or traits of the other character. Foils are often opposites in some way, such as one character being good and the other evil, emphasizing their differing characteristics when placed together. Common examples of foils include Macbeth and Macduff, Harry and Draco, Sherlock and Watson, and Romeo and Mercutio.
This document discusses literary foils and mirrors. Foils are pairs of characters whose differences illuminate each other's important characteristics. Examples given are Scar and Simba from The Lion King, and Katniss and Peeta from The Hunger Games. Mirrors are characters who have similar forms or functions but oppose each other in some way. While foils are traditionally considered opposites and mirrors the same, the terms are related as they add depth to stories by allowing appreciation of characters and revealing themes. Contrast between characters, like heat providing comfort in cold weather and a cool breeze being delightful in summer, gives each more meaning.
This document discusses foil characters in literature using examples from Albert Camus' novel The Stranger. It defines foil characters as those who contrast and emphasize the qualities of another character. It analyzes several characters from the novel as potential foil characters for the protagonist Meursault, focusing on how they contrast with him in their emotions, relationships, and actions. The document concludes that analyzing foil relationships can help readers better understand the main character.
The document discusses whether computing will act as a demon or a deus ex machina in shaping the planet's future amidst concerns over global warming caused by burning fossil fuels and increased carbon dioxide levels. Computing could either exacerbate these issues or help address them through technological solutions and innovations that reduce our environmental impact.
This document defines and provides examples of literary devices including foil, malapropism, and paradox. A foil is a character that contrasts with and provides insight into the protagonist. Malapropism refers to unintentional verbal errors used for humor, such as mixing up words like "comprehended" and "auspicious." Paradoxes are contradictory statements meant to provide insight, like Oscar Wilde resisting temptation and Shakespeare on cowards dying before death.
litearary terms Chorus, Deus Ex Machina, Tragic HeroDevangibagohil
This document discusses several literary terms: chorus, deus ex machina, and tragic hero. It provides details on the chorus such as their role inhabiting the orchestra and adding spectacle through song and dance. It also explains the function of the chorus is to provide advice, establish ethical frameworks, and heighten dramatic effects. For deus ex machina, the document defines it as a deity appearing from a machine to resolve an impossible situation in Greek/Roman dramas. A tragic hero is described as a morally good and believable character with a tragic flaw like hubris that discovers their wrongdoing and tries to atone.
Deus ex machina se refiere originalmente a una deidad introducida de forma artificial en el teatro griego y romano para resolver situaciones de la trama. Actualmente, el término se usa para cualquier elemento externo que resuelve una historia sin seguir su lógica interna. En el cine y la televisión, deus ex machina a menudo implica eventos impuestos por necesidades del guión que carecen de coherencia interna y pueden hacer que la historia parezca forzada.

Illuminated manuscripts from the Middle Ages were handwritten works of art that were decorated with gold or silver leaf, which is why they were called "illuminated" as the metal leaf helped light up the pages. Artists would first outline drawings with ink, then apply a sticky substance to areas that would receive gold leaf, which was placed down and rubbed smooth to shine, along with painted colors made from minerals, plants, and chemicals. Famous illuminated manuscripts include Dante's Divine Comedy, the Book of Kells, the Bible, and the Shahnameh.
The document discusses illumination in medieval manuscripts. Illuminated manuscripts from the Middle Ages were handwritten works of art that were decorated with gold or silver leaf.

Famous illuminated manuscripts include Dante's Divine Comedy, the Book of Kells, the Bible, and the Shahnameh.
This document discusses strategies for analyzing literature. Part I lists questions about reading, fiction, rigor, intellectual communities, talk, close reading, engagement, common texts, and creating lifelong learners. Part II defines literary elements like contrasts, repeated images, flashbacks, realizations, inner struggles, and advice. It provides example clues and questions to help understand characters, plots, themes, and conflicts. Part II also describes having students trace a character's development over time in The Namesake using their notes on these elements.

This literature review examines how the use of wikis in the classroom may impact student engagement. The review begins with background on the changing educational landscape with new technologies. It then discusses how wikis can foster collaboration through their editable and communal nature. Studies found wikis address learning theories like engagement, constructivism, and help students manage information. While literature supports wikis improving collaboration, more research is needed on their impact on student engagement. The annotated review provides a concise summary of the key points and issues discussed in the literature matrix and document.
How to Read Literature Like an English TeacherTrisha Dunn
This document summarizes key techniques and symbols that authors use when writing literature. It discusses common literary devices like quest structures, acts of communion between characters, intertextuality between works, and symbolic meanings behind elements like seasons, geography, violence, and physical traits of characters. The summary explores how mythology, religion, fairy tales, and other works provide symbolic frameworks and allusions that authors draw from when writing fiction.
People determine their own outcomes through the choices they make as there is no predestination, while something special about humans cannot be discovered scientifically and thinking about the future causes anxiety, ultimately one can only rely on themselves.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
