Compare And Contrast Ichabod And The Sleepy Hollow
There are lots of similarities in the book and cartoon of The Sleepy Hollow. They both include Brom and Ichabod being enemies and trying to get Katrina to love them. They also both contain Ichabod being ugly and reading ghost stories. That is some similarities in the book and cartoon of The Sleepy Hollow. Some differences of the book and cartoon of The Sleepy Hollow are quite different. In the cartoon Katrina loved Ichabod but in the book Katrina did not. Also, in the cartoon Ichabod doesn’t walk through the forest at night. Plus, in the book Ichabod was never the center of attention. I prefer the book more than the cartoon because you get to use your own imagination. I liked it better because the book was more detailed and it was more

    In my honest opinion I did not like this book and I do not recommend it. The story itself is magnificent but the fact that it is 100% based off of the movie makes it pointless to read. They could have thrown in more deadly obstacles to face and made it worth reading. Overall it had more weaknesses than strengths. Strengths I can give is that if you haven’t seen the movie, then the book could definitely give you exactly what you’ve missed out on. It is a great story and is more than your average adventure tale. Reading it really does make you feel like you were a kid again, running around and being creative.…

    During the nineteenth century, two paralleling movements, Romanticism and Gothicism, intrigued many authors, leading them to use these styles in their works. An author named, Washington Irving, reflected both of these movements in his writing with a strong focus on the Romantic style. “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and “Rip Van Winkle” were two of his most famous works, which portrayed the romantic ideas of this period.

Through the main figurative elements of Figurative Language, Point of View and Imagery, Washington Irving portrays the Romantic style in his pair of works.…
