SHORT STORY PAPER Compare/contrast Faulkners Dry September with A rose for Emily in terms of writing personal manner and character presentation.What is going to be analyzed in this paper are the two short stories by W. Faulkner A Rose for Emily and Dry September. Basically, what is to be performed is a comparison/contrast analysis in terms of the writing style and character presentation. More specifically, I will provide first the information from the story A Rose for Emily, concerning writing style and character presentation, and following is going to be the corresponding analysis for the other story Dry September. After the necessary data are provided, at that place is going to be a comparison/contrast of these data, by also citing passages from the two stories, for making them more understandable. The similarities and differences that exist in the two stories are substantial. Before, the analysis on the stories takes place there are some oecumenic points that have to be menti unmatchedd that concern other elements of fiction that are as well important. To begin with, the town name that is used in both stories is the like and that is Jefferson. Also both stories are taking place in the old South. And finally, in both of them the main character is a woman, Miss Emily Grierson and Miss Minnie make respectively.The first story that is going to be analyzed is A Rose for Emily, and more specifically the analysis is divided in two parts, first I am concerned with the writing style and second with the character presentation. To begin with I have to say that this story is cardinal that keeps the referees interest undiminished. It has a complex patch and many questions arise when reading through it. Basically what is creating this is the lack of chronological order in the evolution of the facts that are presented. Things become more clear when one places them in the right order. Since the story is taking place in the old South, the choice and use of words in dicts us to that region. Furthermore, what is also noticed here is that there are many descriptions(descriptive language) used in the story It was a big, squarish frame house that &8230 an eyesore among eyesores(431-2). These help to understand more about the surrounding environs and about the appearance, They rose when she entered-a small fat woman in black &8230 while the visitors stated their errand... ... story the descriptions about characters are referring to Emily a lot, and to other heap that were close to her like the servant and H. Barron. In A Rose for Emily, I saw that the reader is more like adduced to Emilys actions and emotions, while on the other story the reader has to deal with other peoples actions and tones. Added to this, I have also to say that two big differences concerning the main characters in that Emilys complex personality-in relation with her father and loved one is projected more, while on the other story we have more on Minnies environment and rela tionships with other people.Summing up, throughout the analysis of the two stories by W. Faulkner, I spotted many similarities and differences, concerning the two elements of fiction, the writing style and the characters presentation. Overall, the two stories are really interesting with a strange plot. Faulkner maintains in both stories, the strange feeling of an almost horror stories. He shows the profound wickedness that penetrates the various characters in both of the stories. Bizarre characters, outlandish settings, but more or less the same feelings to the reader, created by William Faulkner.
