Your task Goal: I will determine the meanings of words and phrases as they are used in the text, and I will analyze how specific word choices impact mood.

MOOD The atmosphere or emotional condition created by the piece, within the setting. Mood refers to the general sense or feeling which the reader is supposed to get from the text; it does not, as a literary element, refer to the author’s or characters’ state of mind. Example: The mood of “MacBeth” is dark, murky and mysterious, creating a sense of fear and uncertainty.

MOOD MOOD is the overall feeling the reader gets from the writing, which is created by the words (diction) chosen. For instance, in the book Shiloh, when Marty first meets Shiloh, the dog seems very cautious and scared like he had been beaten by his owner, but in the second scene from later in the novel, Marty and Shiloh roll around having fun, playing in the grassy meadow. The contrast here would be that the first scene has a sad, sorrowful mood, and the second scene has a happy, uplifting mood.
