Answer: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is intended to be read rather than analyzed.

This ironic notice is meant to remind the reader of the real purpose of the novel. Twain's intention is to highlight the importance of reading the book for pleasure, simply taking in the words without overanalyzing it. It is mainly directed to those who do scholarly work in the area of literary studies, but can apply to anyone who wants to find a deep motive or moral in the book.

Write three to four sentences in which you analyze Dickinson’s style in this poem. Be sure to discuss one or two specific elemen
NeTakaya
<span>Dickinson's style is largely influenced by thematic elements. A major theme treated by Dickinson is scopophilia, or the "pleasure of seeing". Through use of the first person, rich description, and a sense of immediacy, Dickinson allows the reader to really put himself in the shoes of the narrator and "see for himself". The end result is a fast paced and relatable poem.</span>

Use parallel structure to describe three qualities of one of the protagonists in a short story you’ve read.
Novay_Z [31]
Can I have Branliest for the Correct Answer?
Very often things like flashbacks, flash forwards, non-linear narratives, multiple plots and ensemble casts are regarded as optional gimmicks stuck into the conventional three act structure. They're not. Each of the six types I've isolated and their subcategories provides a different take on the same story material.  Suddenly, one idea for a film can give you a multitude of story choices. What do I mean?

More than six ways to turn your idea into a film. Let's imagine that you've read a newspaper article about soldiers contracting a respiratory disease from handling a certain kind of weaponry. You want to write a film about it. Conventional wisdom says create one storyline with one protagonist (a soldier who gets the disease) and follow that protagonist through a three act linear journey.  There's no question that you could make a fine film out of that. But there are several other ways to make a story out of the idea,  and several different messages that you could transmit - by using one of the parallel narrative forms.

<span>Would you like to create a script about a  group of soldiers from the same unit who contract the disease together during one incident, with their relationships disintegrating or improving as they get sicker, dealing with the group dynamic and unfinished emotional business?  That would be a shared team 'adventure', which is a kind of group story, so you would be using what I call </span>Multiple Protagonist<span> form (the form seen in films like Saving Private Ryan or The Full Monty or Little Miss Sunshine, where a group goes on a quest together and we follow the group's adventure, the adventure of each soldier, and the emotional interaction of each soldier with the others). </span>

Alternatively, would you prefer your soldiers not to know each other, instead, to be in different units, or even different parts of the world,  with the action following each soldier into a separate story that shows a different version of the same theme, with  all of the stories running in parallel in the same time frame and making a socio-political comment about war and cannon fodder?  If so, you need what I call tandem narrative,<span> the form of films like Nashville or Traffic. </span>

Alternatively, if you want to tell a series of stories (each about a different soldier) consecutively, one after the other, linking the stories by plot or theme (or both)  at the end, you'll  need what, in my book Screenwriting Updated I called 'Sequential Narrative', but now, to avoid confusion with an approach to conventional three act structure script of the same name, I term Consecutive Stories<span> form, either in its fractured state  (as in Pulp Fiction or Atonement), or in linear form (as in The Circle). </span>
