Character Analysis: Meg Murry
Meg Murry is a very complex person. Mrs. Murry acts wildly at school, but is very protective of her brother, Charles Wallace. I can say this for many reasons. While at school she rough-housed at lunch to feel a little better. I realized how protective after beat someone up because he was making fun of Charles Wallace. Meg also has a strong acquaintance with family. The main character's strongest connection is with her younger brother Charles. Their bond is strong because he can read her mind. That ability allows Charles to tell how Meg feels and he can make Meg feel better. She also had a strong bond with her father before he disappeared. When he vanished, she was devastated.

    Character Analysis: Chris Mccandless

    Krakauer wrote that Chris McCandless was, "green, and he overestimated his resilience, but was sufficiently skilled to last for sixteen weeks on a little more than his wits and ten pounds of rice"(Krakauer 182). In this quote it seems that Krakauer thought that McCandless was well equipped with his skills, so that made moderately prepared to survive in any situation. I feel that McCandless was rather prepared, yet again he never could have been fully prepared for the unexpected. My opinion is that McCandless was vaguely aware of the struggles that he would encounter in the Alaskan wilderness such as his epiphany that "happiness is only real when shared" was realized when his body was dying of starvation. I believed that he found what he was…

    Randle Mcmurphy Character Analysis

    As analysis is conducted into the characters of both Chief Bromden and Randle McMurphy, it is easy to conclude that both have characteristics and preform actions that can be considered heroic. Physically both Bromden and McMurphy are huge. But, unlike McMurphy, Bromden does not have the self-confidence to match his gigantic exterior. This contrast in personality is due to the idea that Bromden has constantly been maltreated for the entirety of his life. McMurphy, on the other hand, refuses to be brought down because of his indomitable spirit.…

    Lena Lingard Character Analysis

    Lena Lingard intrigues me. She’s gentle even though she’s lived on the farm her entire life and she manages to make the littlest things exciting with her charisma. In ways, her adventurousness and excitement make her similar to Tony. However, they differ in that Ántonia possesses a quiet beauty and inner strength that contrasts with Lena’s liveliness. It’s strange-- I dream the same dream “a great many times, and it [is] always the same. I [am] in a harvest-field full of shocks, and I [am] lying against one of them. Lena Lingard [comes] across the stubble barefoot, in a short skirt, with a curved reaping-hook in her hand, and she [is] flushed like the dawn, with a kind of luminous rosiness all about her. She [sits] down beside me, [turns] to me with a soft sigh and said, ‘Now they are all gone, and I can kiss you as much as I like.’ I...wish I could have this flattering dream about Ántonia, but I never [do].” (109) I love Ántonia and her steady independence but I cannot see her in my dreams in…

    A Wrinkle In Time Analysis

    In A Wrinkle in Time, Meg’s level of self-control changes significantly. Before the change, Meg’s self-control was very low as she would punch people at the smallest taunt. For example, Meg attacked a boy at her school for insulting her brother. In fact, she would let all her common sense escape her mind, and she would just use her instincts. After the change, she would keep her anger to herself, though she would still feel it. For instance, when she felt anger towards her dad for not allowing her to save her brother, she did not act on her feelings. Instead, she gathered support from Aunt Beast, Mrs.Who, Mrs.Which, Mrs.Whatsit.…
