English 10Name: Date: The Catcher in the Rye Dialectical Journal Assignment Chapter # 1 Textual Evidence Textual evidence comes directly from the book. This can be a direct quote spoken by a character or a passage of narration. Response This is where you will respond to the text in a thoughtful way. Follow the guiding questions to respond at the three different levels of analysis. Each level should be at least 4-5 complete sentences. “I remember around three o’clock that afternoon I was standing way the hell up on top of Thomsen Hill, right next to this crazy cannon that was in the Revolutionary War and all… practically the whole school except me was there” (Salinger 2). Level 1: The Context of the Quote Holden is at the biggest football game of the year at Pencey Prep. Everyone from his school is there watching the game in the bleachers down by the field. Holden is way up on the hill by himself watching as everyone cheers on the two teams. He explains later that he felt ostracized because he had left all of the fencing foils on the subway and the fencing team was angry with him for his mistake. Level 2: Author’s Tools and Literary Elements This passage shows the characterization of Holden. Salinger is trying to portray Holden as someone who is left out and by himself. The reader is left to wonder whether Holden does this to himself or whether the others have truly left him out. Throughout the next few chapters it seems that Holden is someone who plays by his own rules. If he doesn’t want to do something, he doesn’t. Salinger depicts Holden as someone who does not apply himself which could relate to his schoolwork but also to his social life. Level 3: Create a thematic claim Holden is a character who is ostracized and left out of his society. While some may say that he has Ackley as a friend, Holden does not truly like Ackley. Holden and Ackley are similar in that they are both misfits in their social realm. However, Holden seems to be someone who chooses to be alone whereas Ackley is left out because of others’ reactions to him. Holden has now been kicked out of four schools. Though he is someone who is well read, he does not seem to apply himself causing him to be ostracized, or kicked out of, wherever he is. EXAMPLE

Characterization is the process by which the writer reveals the personality of a character. Characterization is revealed through direct characterization and indirect characterization. Defining Characterization:

Tells the audience what the personality of the character is. Example: “The patient boy and quiet girl were both well mannered and did not disobey their mother.” Explanation: The author is directly telling the audience the personality of these two children. The boy is “patient” and the girl is “quiet.” Direct Characterization:

Shows things that reveal the personality of a character. There are five different methods of indirect characterization: S peech: What does the character say? How does the character speak? T houghts: What is revealed through the character’s private thoughts and feelings? E ffect: on others toward the character. What is revealed through the character’s effect on other people? How do other characters feel or behave in reaction to the character? A ctions: What does the character do? How does the character behave? L ooks What does the character look like? How does the character dress? TIP: Use the mnemonic device of STEAL to remember the five types of indirect characterization Indirect Characterization:

A Poor Example of a Body Paragraph: Holden Caulfield is not suffering from a serious mental illness but is at a social disadvantage because his brain has not fully developed its region that controls reasoning. Friedman writes, “the prefrontal cortex is one of the last regions of the brain to mature, adolescents have far less ability to modulate emotions” (Friedman 3). Holden’s adolescent mind struggles to modulate his emotions and this causes him to feel anxious in social situations. For example, “I pulled the peak of my hunting hat around to the front all of a sudden. I’m quite a nervous guy” (Salinger 34). Holden is uncomfortable with the thought of Stradlater dating Jean that he struggles to control his emotions during their conversation. *Think about paragraph structure…*
