{Article Evaluation exercise } Melodic Motion


 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? In my opinion everything is quite relevant and nothing really distracted me except for the beginning when it was swapping between the different types of melodies.
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? Nothing is missing. And it is all good to DATE.
 * What else could be improved? I believe that there could be some examples in there.
 * The tone is very neutral and a few things are under-presented . The kind of gloss over some of it.
 * All the links work and valid. The sources come from creditable and neutral articles. They are more factual if anything.

Jolie's peer review
Is each section's length equal to its importance to the article's subject? Are there sections in the article that seem unnecessary? Is anything off-topic?The article itself isn't bad but there are things that can definitely be added. There are things that are unnecessary, but at the same time there can definitely be some things that can be added. Does the article reflect all the perspectives represented in the published literature? Are any significant viewpoints left out or missing? There are a couple view left out but that is okay because we can add some. Does the article draw conclusions or try to convince the reader to accept one particular point of view? no it does not. Are the sections organized well, in a sensible order? Would they make more sense presented some other way (chronologically, for example)? yes the sections are organized well. Do you think you could guess the perspective of the author by reading the article? Ye sir I believe i can. Are there any words or phrases that don't feel neutral? For example, "the best idea," "most people," or negative associations, such as "While it's obvious that x, some insist that y." There are a few but it isn't to bad. Does the article make claims on behalf of unnamed groups or people? For example, "some people say..." Ye maa'am they do. Does the article focus too much on negative or positive information? Remember, neutral doesn't mean "the best positive light" or "the worst, most critical light." It means a clear reflection of various aspects of a topic. nope.

Jolie's week 6 short story summary

This article is A Rose for Emily. It defines and goes further into the characters, and discussing their characteristics and qualities. It tells you about the structure of the short story. The theme is ""A Rose for Emily" discusses many dark themes that characterized the Old South and Southern Gothic fiction." It however doesn't discuss the symbolism. i plan to discuss the various symbols with three different article. Two which I already have. This article is pretty much a give from the short story and really doesn't go that much farther into debt.

RE-EDIT of A Rose For Emily Article

The article A Rose for Emily, is about a woman named Emily, who recently loses her father. In the midst of his death, she discovers her necrophiliac intentions and goes farther then before. She keeps a dead man in her bed and does unspeakable things with him. No one knows about her secret obsession because she never ever leaves the house. The only person they see is her grocery man who barely speaks and when asked tells them she is in mourning. In the end, it all unfolds for the whole town to see. This surprise leaves the whole town in shock.

AS of right now I do not have any edits from other classmates or Wikipedia. I am also still very confused on to what we are supposed to be doing in this exercise.

( 300 words for my short story.)

In my short story A Rose for Emily, Emily is awakened by some filthy obsessions that she had no idea about. These obsessions only awakened when her father died. She, herself is portrayed as a drowned body. "She looked bloated, like a body long submerged in motionless water, and of that pallid hue. Her eyes, lost in the fatty ridges of her face, looked like two small pieces of coal pressed into a lump of dough as they moved from one face to another". This imagery makes her seem like she has been drowned with sadness since her fathers passing and that she is soaking in the mourning. Her character overall is almost like a zombie. She is withering away. Her soul is withering away. Her emotions are almost this numbness. "As they recrossed the lawn, a window that had been dark was lighted and Miss Emily sat in it, the light behind her, and her upright torso motionless as that of an idol." This symbolizes a still figure. Also it could represent a corpse in a casket because a corpse lies there motionless just like Mrs. Emily sitting there motionless. She is dead inside pretty much and is just dying from the inside out. She is rarely seen outside of her house and when she is seen she seems to grow darker and grey. "When we next saw Miss Emily, she had grown fat and her hair was turning gray. During the next few years it grew grayer and grayer until it attained an even pepper-and-salt iron-gray, when it ceased turning. Up to the day of her death at seventy-four it was still that vigorous iron-gray". This grey symbolizes the lack of emotion and any happiness. It represents the depressing life she had. It is the type of grey that you see in movies when everything is falling apart and there is no hope left in life. The type of grey that you see business men walking around with. The nothing new and boring life. She is living a boring and sad life with a dark black secret of necrophilia.

Symbolism
Jen: A Rose for Emily has many great examples of symbolism.Symbolism allows a story to have deeper meaning, there for making it more interesting. The first, most obvious one, the rose. In this case the rose is a symbol of love. A rose is red and beautiful, but also has thorns. Faulkner uses this specific flower because it is a good way of showing Homer who is Emily's love, but also how distorted hurtful their love affair is in a way. Death is also a reoccurring symbol in the story. From Homer's death to necrophilia, death seems to be a prominent element in they story. The story takes place in the South during the Civil War era.Death is also seem here. The "death" of the South is seen through the hardships and the terrible aftermath of the war.

Jolie: Symbols play a major role in A Rose for Emily. There are as many as seven different symbols.There is a gold chain, her body, the rose, the house, The neighborhood, the bed and her eyes. The gold chain "connects the upper with the nether region of her body, mind with sexuality". This symbol shows that she is rich in how she thinks, along with the way she puts out. Her body symbolizes the misery and mourning she has been through, it shows the toll it took on her. The word rose is seen several times throughout the narration. In the narration rose is used as a verb and a noun. " As she entered they rose" is one way it is used. Like a flower rising to the sky. The other roses are used to describe the beauty she once contained but slowly withered away. The house is her cage and her safe place. It symbolizes her own asylum, where she goes and stays because she is having a hard time. The neighborhood represents a community and almost a family, yet at the same time it shows the gossip. It can also be seen as a cliche. The bed is a sexual symbol. It is worn down and faded due to all the use it has been doing. Her eyes symbolize the windows of her soul.
