Response Question for R 10/28 and M 11/1
After reading the short story version of Trifles, "A Jury of her Peers," please compose a paragraph comparing/contrasting the two works. Which genre/version did you prefer? Why?
When comparing Trifles and the short story they both have the same wording and its acts. On the other hand the differences are that the short story doesn't take place in one location, and in the short story they are more focused on the characters actions. They both have differences on how you go about what the setting is. In the short story you read as if you were there watching what they do and how they do it, when they are speaking. on the other hand in Trifles you have no actions so you dont know what they are doing or how they feel when they are speaking. You also dont know who the characters really are in the short story and in Trifles it states who they are.

ReplyDeleteI prefer the short story because i can easily visualize the setting and i can also see the actions of the characters.
