Character and characterization
This document discusses different types of characters including protagonists, antagonists, flat characters, round characters, stock characters, static characters, and dynamic characters. It also discusses characterization, explaining that there are two types: direct characterization, where the author tells the reader about the character's personality, and indirect characterization, where the author shows the reader things that reveal the character's personality through their speech, thoughts, effect on others, actions, and looks (STEAL).
Characterization direct and indirect
The document discusses two types of characterization - direct and indirect. Direct characterization involves the author directly telling the audience about a character's personality, while indirect characterization involves the author showing aspects of a character's personality through their speech, thoughts, interactions with others, actions, and appearance. Indirect characterization uses five methods - speech, thoughts, effect on others, actions, and looks - to reveal a character's personality without explicitly stating it.
Characterization powernotes for giver ms vanko

The document provides examples of both and instructs readers to identify elements of indirect characterization in a passage from the novel "The Giver".
The male gaze
The male gaze refers to how women are typically depicted from a heterosexual male point of view in visual media like films. Feminist theorist Laura Mulvey introduced the concept of the male gaze in 1975, arguing that women are often portrayed as sexual objects for the visual pleasure of male characters and audiences. She believed films present a heterosexual male perspective and that women are viewed as sexual spectacles rather than fully realized characters. The male gaze objectifies and fetishizes women for male pleasure through techniques like voyeurism and the camera's depiction of women as passive objects rather than active subjects.
What Comedy Movies Entail
This document discusses the genre of comedy movies. It notes that typical features of comedy movies include an introduction to the characters, often in a comical fashion such as a family photo album. The characters can be families going on adventures, friends, or reunited friends. Typical scenes in comedy movies take place during holidays, at schools, or at parties.
Characterization Notes
This document discusses characterization in fiction writing. It contrasts direct characterization, where the author directly states a character's traits, with indirect characterization, where a character's personality is inferred from their speech, thoughts, actions, effects on others, and appearance. Five methods of indirect characterization - speech, thoughts, effect on others, actions, and looks - are outlined. Key terms related to character analysis are also defined, such as protagonist, antagonist, flat/round/dynamic/static characters, stereotypes, and inference of traits.
Story Elements
The document discusses the key elements of fiction and non-fiction stories. It explains that fiction stories contain characters, a setting, and a problem for characters to solve. Non-fiction stories can be biographies about people's lives, books about science, social studies, animals, or places. The document encourages finding and reading books from the classroom, school, or community libraries.
Types of Characters
There are several types of characters found in stories. Round characters undergo changes throughout the story in response to conflict, while flat characters remain static. Stock characters rely on cultural stereotypes. The protagonist is the main character the audience empathizes with, while the antagonist directly opposes the protagonist. Examples are provided of each character type from stories like The Chronicles of Narnia, Tangled, and Superman.
Characterization in literature
The document discusses 8 methods for characterizing characters in literature: 1) physical description, 2) name analysis, 3) attitude/appearance, 4) dialogue, 5) thoughts, 6) reactions of others, 7) actions or incidents, and 8) physical/emotional setting. It also covers direct and indirect characterization and different types of characters such as protagonists, antagonists, round characters, flat characters, dynamic characters, and static characters. The overall focus is on analyzing characters using these various methods and techniques.
What Is Character
This document provides an overview of how to analyze characters in a story. It discusses determining whether a character is main or minor, dynamic or static, round or flat, and the protagonist or antagonist. It also provides guidance on interpreting characters by stating an opinion and backing it up with evidence from the story through paraphrasing, summarizing, or quoting. The document gives an example outline for analyzing specific characters like Mama, Dee, or Maggie and identifying what elements and evidence support that characterization.
Chapter 10 understanding characterisation classslides
This document discusses characterisation techniques used by writers. It defines characterisation as how writers create, develop and present characters through their appearance, actions, speech, thoughts and feelings. There are two main techniques: direct characterisation tells the reader about the character, while indirect characterisation shows the character through their actions, speech and impact on other characters. Understanding characters through appearance, actions, speech and their impact on others helps readers engage with the story.
Male gaze theory
Male gaze theory examines how audiences view characters, especially how the perspective of a heterosexual male shapes portrayals of women in film. Coined by Laura Mulvey in 1975, male gaze refers to women being viewed and presented as sexual objects from a male point of view, as seen in the many James Bond scenes and covers that depict women as sexual objects for the male gaze.
Final presentation
The document compares and contrasts Japanese and American animation character design. Japanese animation character design pursues aesthetic perfection with tall, handsome males and females with long hair, small noses, and exaggerated eyes. The designs are delicate and focus on realism and humans. American animation has simpler, more exaggerated proportions that are closer to reality and audience size/appearance. Materials are broad but content is less diverse. American animation is mostly 3D which allows for more artistry but also higher costs due to more frames needed per action.
The 8 Methods Of Characterization Powerpoint
The document outlines 8 methods for characterizing characters in stories: 1) physical description, 2) name analysis, 3) attitude/appearance, 4) dialogue, 5) thoughts, 6) reactions of others, 7) actions or incidents, and 8) physical/emotional setting. For each method, an example is provided from various stories to illustrate how that method can be used to analyze a character. The overall document teaches how to use these 8 lenses to provide an in-depth characterization of characters rather than a superficial description.
Character traits
Character traits help readers understand why fictional characters act the way they do, predict their future actions, and comprehend their relationships. Authors bring characters to life through direct descriptions using adjectives or indirect examples of what characters say, think, feel, look like, and how others perceive them to help readers feel a certain way about each character.
Externally set assignment 2012.13 anchorage
This document discusses anchorage and polysemy in images. It provides three key points:
1. Images can have multiple meanings (polysemy) as different people interpret them differently.
2. Adding text to an image can guide the audience's interpretation (anchorage) toward the artist's intended meaning or make the meaning more open to various interpretations.
3. The concepts of anchorage and polysemy in images were discussed by Roland Barthes.
The document then provides examples of artists who use anchoring text to either direct or expand the meanings of their images. It assigns students the task of adding text to an image to anchor or make its meaning more polysemic.
Narrative Theorist Genre
Vladimir Propp analyzed over 100 Russian fairy tales and identified character roles and narrative functions that commonly occurred. Tzvetan Todorov described narratives as typically starting with an equilibrium that is disrupted, creating a problem for the protagonist to solve and return to equilibrium. Roland Barthes identified five narrative codes - narrative, action, enigma, symbolic, and cultural - that allow readers to make sense of a narrative.
Theorists and theories
Laura Mulvey's 1975 essay "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema" argued that classic 1970s Hollywood cinema encouraged the "male gaze," or voyeuristic way of looking at women. She identified five features of the male gaze in cinema, including focusing the camera on female bodies and showing events through the male character's reaction rather than the female's perspective. The male gaze objectifies and sexualizes women for the pleasure of the male viewer. It positions women as weak objects in need of male protection rather than as fully realized characters.
Mini lesson characterization
The document discusses characterization in stories, describing direct characterization as when an author directly states a character's traits, and indirect characterization as when a character's traits are inferred based on their actions, speech, thoughts, interactions with others, and appearance. There are five methods of indirect characterization: a character's speech, actions, thoughts and feelings, interactions with other characters, and physical appearance. Indirect characterization provides clues about characters and creates more mystery than direct characterization.
Laura mulvey's theory
Laura Mulvey introduced the concept of the "male gaze" in 1975 to describe how women are typically depicted in media through the heterosexual male perspective, with features like lingering camera shots, portrayals as objects in need of rescue, and events centered around men's reactions rather than the women themselves. The document discusses how audiences view characters from this male perspective and how women look at themselves, men, and other women through the lens of the male gaze in media texts.
UMass CRC - Group Identity

Introduction to personal identity 2012
This document discusses the philosophical problem of personal identity. It explores two main approaches to personal identity - physical continuity, which argues we are the same person if we have the same body, and psychological continuity, which argues we are the same person if we have the same memories and mental continuity. However, both approaches face challenges. The document examines various philosophers' thought experiments and arguments regarding these approaches and the difficulties in securing personal identity over time.
Race and identity 2
This document discusses various artworks from different artists that explore themes of race and identity in America. It mentions pieces from 1893 to 2006 covering topics like minstrel shows, the civil rights movement, internment camps, and immigrant experiences. The artworks examine how racial and ethnic groups have been portrayed or have portrayed themselves over time.
Social identity theory pp
This document summarizes key aspects of social identity theory and stereotypes. Social identity theory proposes that people derive their self-concept from membership in social groups. Individuals favor their in-groups over out-groups, which can lead to stereotyping of out-groups. Studies discussed include Tajfel's minimal group experiments showing in-group favoritism and Cialdini's research on basking in reflected glory. The formation of stereotypes is explained by theories of social categorization, the grain of truth hypothesis, and illusionary correlations. Stereotypes can impact behavior through confirmation bias but their avoidance is difficult due to human tendencies towards categorization and bias.
Identity Development
This document discusses identity development in adolescents. It begins by outlining Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development, with a focus on the 5th stage of identity vs. role confusion. It then explains James Marcia's identity status theory, which identifies four statuses along a continuum from identity diffusion to identity achievement based on exploration and commitment. The statuses are identity achievement, foreclosure, diffusion, and moratorium. Finally, it describes the process of identity consolidation in early, middle, and late adolescence as identities are de-structured, restructured, and tested.
Personal identity
This document discusses personal identity in medicolegal cases. It defines personal identity as establishing the individuality of a person. Complete identity means knowing a person's full name and address, while incomplete or partial identity can only establish details like age and sex. Identification is important in both living and dead persons, for cases like inheritance, accidents, unknown bodies, and crime. Methods of determining identity include third party accounts, subjective analysis of a person's physical characteristics and belongings, and objective analysis of biological and non-biological traces. Key parameters include age, sex, race, identity marks, dental records, hair, blood types, diseases, and possessions. At least two important identifying marks should be documented.
Social identity theory
Social Identity Theory proposes that people define themselves by their group memberships and will act to positively distinguish their own group from others in order to enhance their self-esteem. Groups prescribe beliefs for their members and individuals will favor their own group and work to advance it over other groups. People can achieve enhancement of their social identity through social mobility, social change, believing the status quo is unstable, or employing strategies that improve their group's status without directly challenging others.
'Who am I?' Exploring Personal Identity
This document discusses personal identity and theories of identity formation. It covers Erikson's theory of identity crisis in adolescence, where teens struggle to develop a unique identity while fitting in. Having a clear sense of self after this crisis leads to a healthy identity. The document also discusses the relationship between identity and values, and developing self-esteem through focusing on intrinsic qualities rather than external factors or comparisons. It provides five tips for improving one's authentic self-identity.
Identity Formation
This presentation talks about the foundations of 'identity' and various theories associated with identity formation. Also, it shows the factors affecting identity formation.
Identity formation and social cognition
Identity refers to a sense of self and how one relates to society. Theories of identity formation include Erik Erikson's stages of identity development from childhood through adolescence and James Marcia's identity statuses of identity achievement, moratorium, foreclosure, and diffusion. Personal, social, cultural, and environmental influences shape identity formation, including gender, culture, peers, family, school, and media. Social cognition and role-taking abilities also develop with age and experience.
Social Identity Theory
This document discusses social identification theories as they relate to acculturating individuals and groups. It draws from literature on social, ethnic, and cross-cultural psychology applied to immigrant, sojourner, and refugee studies. Key aspects covered include cultural and ethnic identity formation; social identity theory and the importance of group membership for self-esteem; intergroup biases, attitudes, and relations; and the influence of characteristics like perceived discrimination on acculturation and adaptation outcomes.
The Problem Of Personal Identity
The document discusses the concept of personal identity and whether human beings remain the same over time or change. It presents several examples of how people can change, such as changing religions, names, careers or social groups. It also discusses theories of personal identity, including the illusion, body, soul and memory theories. Each theory proposes a different view of what makes someone the same person over time as their body, mind and experiences change throughout life.
4 Responses To Personal Identity
This document discusses different theories of personal identity: illusion theory, body theory, soul theory, and memory theory.

Biogenetic acting emotion
This document discusses different techniques actors use to portray emotions on stage or screen. It explains that actors should let the emotions of the scene guide them and lose themselves in their character to an extent. Actors are encouraged to incorporate humor, play the opposite emotion, stick to one overarching emotion, and keep their voice in control. Facial expressions are also important for conveying emotions to the audience. Unlike regular facial expressions, microexpressions that last 1/15 to 1/25 of a second are difficult to fake and can reveal a person's true emotions.

TV Drama - Representation
The document discusses the concept of mediation in media texts. It explains that every media text represents a version of reality rather than reality itself, as the media takes real people and events and changes them into the final media product. It provides the example of a comedy show being mediated through repeated rehearsals and editing to produce the half hour broadcast. Representation is then discussed as how groups, individuals, or social changes are portrayed in the media through subjective rather than objective constructions. Any representation is a mixture of the thing itself, the opinions of its creators, individual reactions, and the social context. Key points to consider with TV drama representations are what is represented, how, who is responsible, and how it can be interpreted. Ster

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 1. Social and group identity
- 2. Individual identity • What factors make up your individual identity?
- 3. Sherif: the robber’s cave experiment • In both novels, we have commented on the protagonists’ loss of individual identity. • How do people behave differently in groups than they might individually? • Why might we try to create a group identity?
- 4. P17-19: Group identity in the novels • What do you notice about individual and group identity in these two extracts? (note: the Handmaid’s Tale extract continues over the page) • Comment on 4-5 images in each extract: – Similes – Dynamic verbs – Animal imagery – Sensory imagery
- 5. How is group identity formed? • Watch the videos on Blackboard. • How is group identity different to individual identity? • What helps to create the identity of the group in these examples?

- 11. Writing tasks • Write a descriptive account of one of the situations you have just watched, in the style of one of our writers. • Try to use: – Animal imagery – Similes – Dynamic verbs – Sensory imagery – You can choose whether to write in 1st or 3rd person narrative
- 12. Commentary • Write a commentary on the effect of the imagery you have used and your narrative viewpoint. • Use quotes and go into detail about the connotations and meanings of your language.
- 13. Example • I have used the dynamic verbs ‘shrieking,’ ‘howling’ and ‘wailing’ to create sensory imagery describing the mourners for Kim Jong Il. • These verbs all create a sense of loud, uncontrolled sounds, and create the impression that people have become inarticulate in their grief: they can only make noises, not words. The present continuous form of the verbs shows that their grief is not a passing feeling, but an ongoing experience for the whole group.
