Essay / The characters Jane from Jane Eyre, John and Mustapha...
Joy, fear and impatience are what a good character makes you feel. A thoughtful and interesting character always leaves you wanting more, like a good movie, once it's over you always want more. The characters that gave me a roller coaster ride were Jane from Jane Eyre, John and Mustapha from Brave New World and Edgar from King Lear. These characters take me up and down a roller coaster of joy. “You will have joy, or you will have power, says God; you will not have both” (Ralph Emerson) Power is what Mustapha Mond chose; he gave up his joy and his dreams for ultimate power. Mustapha believed that a perfect world did not need humanity; all he needed was stability and happiness. To obtain this social stability, it was necessary to make some sacrifices; like art, science, religion and life. It is precisely for this reason that Mustapha stood out: his ideas and his philosophy were false. He essentially helped create a more advanced version of Cuba. Mustapha Mond was portrayed as Fidel Castro. A very powerful person, who controlled everything and everyone, built a world in which human beings had only one way to behave, like action figures, everything they say or do is programmed into them. Mustapha stood out because he is depicted as a teacher. The teacher has all the power; everyone listens and follows instructions. The teacher makes the rules and if someone breaks a rule they are punished or in this case exiled or isolated. The controller is what is and the power is what he has, Mustapha Mond. “I like being an outsider all the time. It allows me to be creative. I don't like anything in the mainstream and they don't like me. » (Bill Hicks) John stood out because he is the ultimate outsider in Brave New World. He wasn't in the middle of a paper... to stretch out, to exult, with the strangest feeling of freedom, of triumph that I have ever felt. It seemed to me that an invisible bond had been broken and that I had struggled to achieve an unexpected freedom. Never knowing what was going to happen next, like St. John wasn't first portrayed as a cousin, but in the end he was portrayed as a husband rather than even a cousin, all because of Jane. She puts a twist in the story, which causes the reader to be pushed or perceived to like Jane. Pleasure, sorrow, and curiosity are what these characters made you feel in the end. Each character had their own taste and style, it was like I was in a restaurant and each character was a choice from the menu, completed in their own way. All these characters added their own twists and turns and turned on the ride and in the end, Jane, John, Mustapha and Edgar left me wanting more..
