 ELAALRL3  b. Relates a literary work to the characteristics of the literary time period that it represents.  j. Realism Realism Detailed Reality Class is important Complex ethical choices The Hunger Games

Today’s Standards Identify Theme Analyze

Journal Entry (reader’s notebook)  Before the Games start, Peeta tells Katniss, “…I want to die as myself…I don’t want them to change me in there. Turn me into some kind of monster that I’m not.” Who is the “them” that Peeta is referring to in this quotation? What does this statement tell you about Peeta? What does he fear more than death? Can you think of a deeper theme that is being reflected in Peeta’s thoughts, here? Answer these questions and discuss this “deeper theme” in relation to the book, as a whole.

Realism  html?pid= html?pid=1744

Realism Characteristics: (from Richard Chase, The American Novel and Its Tradition)  Renders reality closely and in comprehensive detail. Selective presentation of reality with an emphasis on verisimilitude (truth), even at the expense of a well-made plot

Realism Characteristics  Character is more important than action and plot; complex ethical choices are often the subject.  Characters appear in their real complexity of temperament and motive; they are in explicable relation to nature, to each other, to their social class, to their own past.

 Class is important; the novel has traditionally served the interests and aspirations of an insurgent middle class. (See Ian Watt, The Rise of the Novel)  Events will usually be plausible. Realistic novels avoid the sensational, dramatic elements of naturalistic novels and romances. Realism Characteristics

 Diction is natural vernacular, not heightened or poetic; tone may be comic, satiric, or matter-of-fact.  Objectivity in presentation becomes increasingly important: overt authorial comments or intrusions diminish as the century progresses.
