Observations and Analysis: The goal of this section is to show off your analytical skills!  I will provide an excerpt from the play for you to analyze For the excerpt: Remark on your observations of literary elements (e.g., characterization, themes, irony, symbolism, plot structure, dialogue) in the passage. Essentially, what would you point out if you were annotating the passage? Write 100-200 words ANALYZING the text to show its significance in context of the scene or play. Remember! Don’t just say it “shows” XYZ, explain HOW it shows XYZ. example below   EXAMPLE (from Lady Windermere’s Fan, which we didn’t read): Observations: Darlington uses anaphora to parallel what Dumby says “we are all__” Darlington juxtaposes “stars” and “gutter”; juxtaposes “all” and “some” This is a gradiose comment, philosophical, about everyone, the nature of things, etc. Darlington stands to make this comment and then sits. Dumby and Graham call him “romantic” Analysis:Lord Darlington offers a cynical yet poetic reflection on human nature when he responds to Dumby, rephrasing Dumby’s assertion that “we are all good.” When Lord Darlington says, “We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars,” he juxtaposes the words “gutter” and “stars” to highlight the tension between human imperfection and aspirational ideals by choosing two locations of vary different heights; gutters are close to the ground, stars are unreachable, in the sky. The “gutter” symbolizes moral compromise or social disgrace, suggesting that no one is free from flaws or societal judgment. Yet, the phrase “looking at the stars” introduces a sense of hope, beauty, and idealism. Wilde uses this contrast to critique Victorian moral rigidity while celebrating the human capacity for dreaming and striving beyond one’s circumstances. The use of “some of us,”  also juxtaposed against “all,” subtly implies that not everyone chooses to aspire, reinforcing Wilde’s theme of individual perspective and moral complexity.

Write 100-200 words ANALYZING the text of the passage to show its significance in context of the scene or play as a whole. Remember: don’t just say it “shows” XYZ, explain HOW it shows XYZ!   Passage, excerpted from pages 67-69 in the class edition: JACK.     This ghastly state of things is what you call Bunburying, I suppose? ALGERNON.     Yes, and a perfectly wonderful Bunbury it is. The most wonderful Bunbury I have ever had in my life. JACK.     Well, you’ve no right whatsoever to Bunbury here. ALGERNON.     That is absurd. One has a right to Bunbury anywhere one chooses. Every serious Bunburyist knows that. JACK.     Serious Bunburyist! Good heavens! ALGERNON.     Well, one must be serious about something, if one wants to have any amusement in life. I happen to be serious about Bunburying. What on earth you are serious about I haven’t got the remotest idea. About everything, I should fancy. You have such an absolutely trivial nature. JACK.      Well, the only small satisfaction I have in the whole of this wretched business is that your friend Bunbury is quite exploded. You won’t be able to run down to the country quite so often as you used to do, dear Algy. And a very good thing too.
