  1. Character & Thought By: HongKi Kim & William Nugent

  2. I. Character

  3. A.Character must not be the show of a good man brought from well-being to unfortunate. Example: The movie “Yes Man” shows that the character is a bad man from the start. Later on in the movie, he turns into a good man.

  4. B.Character should be not too extreme about good and just • Misfortune is brought by error or weakness, not by bad habit or corruption • Example: Achilles from the Trojan war has a weakness on his heel. Paris, king of Troy, shot him an arrow with a bow and wounded Achilles’ heel during the war.

  5. C.Characters must have speech or action that shows moral purpose 1The character must have a purpose 2 This rule applies to class, depending on the class, the characters will have more importance. Example: Martin Luther King Jr. gives out a speech called “I have a dream”.

  6. D.Characters must be true to life, if a character is portrayed in a certain way, then that character should do and say things that is most likely. 1 Must be consistent throughout the play. 2 To go with the plot, characters must say things that are relevant to the situation. Example: Brad Pitt acts as Achilles in the movie “Troy”.

  7. II Thought -Ability of saying what is possible and related in given conditions.- “Example”

  8. How does it work • 1 Oratory's function is political art and the art of rehotric (Public sepaking and writing) • Therefore older poets make their characters speak language of civilians. • Example: when someone is talking to someone, they might pretend to agree when really they disagree.

  9. Character reveals purpose→ showing what kind of things a man choose or avoids. • Makes the speeches unclear • Speaker are not expressive of character. • Thought tells the audience what the characters are going to do next.

  10. When is thought used • Thought is found when something is proved to be or not to be or when a general expression is announced. • People might say what they think, if they agree with the situation.

  11. The thought of a character is rhetorical (talking to themselves) • Shows their emotion • Characters talk to themselves without verbal exposition. • Example: in the last king of Scotland, Garagan nodded his head as he listened to Amin but inside he was really terrified.

  12. What could it be • Thought could be a prayer, a threat, a statemant, a question or an answer.
