source-serif "><p>The novel, Les Misérables by Victor Hugo, demonstrates “the inhumane treatment of convicts and ex-convicts.” (Pg. viii) The character Jean Valjean is recently released from prison and has traveled on foot for many days. Searching for food and shelter, he goes to many inns. However, he is turned away everywhere he goes. Valjean is required to show his yellow passport at each town, proclaiming that he is a dangerous convict. This gives people the right to refuse to give his service. Therefore, even though he is tired, starving, and harmless, <a href='/topics/jean-valjean' style='color:#3174a3'>Jean Valjean</a> is thrown out onto the streets into the cold night. Eventually, Valjean finds refuge in a small church within the village. The priest offers him a clean bed and supper. He is kind to Valjean,<a data-href=/writing/document/8CD325379CD88D70 class="document__middle white-space--normal source-serif text-l" rel="nofollow" style="cursor:pointer;white-space: normal;"> <i>…show more content…</i> </a></p></span><span class="document__preview text-l source-serif "><p class='text-ellipsis-after'>It is used in this novel to form a mental image to provide a picture or illustration. The story opens with a description of Jean Valjean. The reader sees “a man of middle height, stout and hardy,” (Pg. 3) The man wears “a slouched leather cap half [hiding] his face, bronzed by the sun and wind, and dripping with sweat.” (Pg. 3) The illustration provides a visual on what the main character looks like. It suggests that the man has been through a hard time, and that the story may follow his journey. Once Valjean reaches the town, he tries to ask for shelter from a poor peasant family. They live in “a pretty little one-story house” with “a light in the window.” (Pg. 9) The narrator describes that “a table was set in the center of the room; a brass lamp lighted the coarse white table-cloth; a tin mug full of wine shone like, and the brown soup-dish was smoking.” (Pg. 9) Another example of imagery is when he enters the church. Jean Valjean “had his knapsack on his back, his stick in his hand.” The imagery offers a description of Valjean from the perspective of the people in the church, as they see him for the first time. Valjean is shown as a harsh or sinister with his “rough, hard, tired, and fierce look in his eyes, as seen by the firelight.” (Pg.</p></span></div><div class="paper__gradient paper__gradient--bottom"></div><div class="center paper__cta"><a class="button text-m button--orange" id="ShowMoreButton" rel="nofollow" data-href="/writing/document/8CD325379CD88D70">Get Access</a></div></div></div></div><div class="columns large-4 hide-for-medium-only hide-for-small-only"><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_sidebar"></div><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_sidebar_1"></div></div></div><div class="row essay-preview-block essay-related-block "><div class="columns large-12 padding-1 no-padding-large"><div class="columns large-12 paper--related-separator-new"><span class="paper--related-separator-word">Related</span></div><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_related"></div><section class=""><ul id="RelatedDocumentCenter" class="unstyled"><li id="related-essay1"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/What-Are-The-Rhetorical-Devices-Used-In-68D16913F54E73AA" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">What Are The Rhetorical Devices Used In Don T Blink</h2></a><ul><li>670 Words</li><li>3 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/What-Are-The-Rhetorical-Devices-Used-In-68D16913F54E73AA" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">What Are The Rhetorical Devices Used In Don T Blink</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">One excellent example is, “Imagine that I’m a professor, you walk down, come though the doorway, sit down at a table…” (Gladwell, Primed for Action). Gladwell describes a character moving through a simple situation. Although this example may seem a bit vague, it provides an image within the reader’s mind of what that particular situation may look like. As Americans, we do this quite frequently, when we think of a certain event or social gathering we are planning on attending or even being forced to attend, we draw up and image within our minds. Sometimes said image may be a good image, with everything occurring exactly as you have thought those events would happen. Sadly, many times within our minds, not everything is pictured in a positive way. We may think of a social event where we may be shunned by everyone else attending the event because of one bad comment we spoke, or our taste in music or other entertainment. Another example of imagery within the book is the quote, “Predicting Divorce, like tracking Morse code operators, is pattern recognition.” (Gladwell, the Secrets of the Bedroom). This example, once again, gives us an image of this certain situation with the use of “Morse code operators” to provide some sort of image for our minds to</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>670 Words</li><li>3 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/What-Are-The-Rhetorical-Devices-Used-In-68D16913F54E73AA">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay2"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Rhetorical-Analysis-Why-We-Can-T-Wait-FJ4WEQSNJ8T" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Rhetorical Analysis Why We Can T Wait</h2></a><ul><li>678 Words</li><li>3 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Rhetorical-Analysis-Why-We-Can-T-Wait-FJ4WEQSNJ8T" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Rhetorical Analysis Why We Can T Wait</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">This literary device is being used when he states, "I see a young Negro boy. He is sitting on a stoop... The stench of garbage is in the halls. The drunks... jobless... junkies are shadow figures of his everyday world". The use of imagery throughout his passage is to evoke emotions like empathy, from his audience. It allows his audience to be able to establish a connection with the images he portrays, and for the audience too also be able to understand how desperately social change is needed in the United States. Another example of imagery would be where he states," black people, brought to this land in slave ships and in chain, had drained the swamps, built the homes... to lift this nation from colonial obscurity to commanding influence...".

In some instances the audience can acquire a sense, based on the description whether the characters are self absorbed, considerate, or overly concerned about their appearance. “I ought to be shot for looking like this” she’d tell the mirror in the front hall before going out the door. “I look like I’ve been drug through hell backwards,” she would say on and ordinary day. “Like death warmed over.

Imagery is when an author uses visually descriptive or figurative language, especially in a literary work. In “Mericans” Sandra Cisneros uses imagery multiple times to describe and develop the scene around the narrator. The first example of imagery is “Some with fat rags tied around their legs and others with pillows, one to kneel on, and one to flop ahead”. Additionally imagery is used again, as it states, “After all that dust and dark, the light from the plaza makes me squinch my eyes like if I just came out of the movies.” The use of imagery creates an visualization of the area around the narrator and how she is reacting to that area.</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>511 Words</li><li>3 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-satisfactory-essays"><div><span>Satisfactory Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Mericans-Literary-Analysis-PCRCVVTYZDV">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay5"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Comparing-The-Crucible-And-Les-Miserables-PCYLT8K95T" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Comparing The Crucible, And Les Miserables</h2></a><ul><li>657 Words</li><li>3 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Comparing-The-Crucible-And-Les-Miserables-PCYLT8K95T" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Comparing The Crucible, And Les Miserables</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">When Jean Valjean is released from prison, he understands the bias he is going to face in the real world.

It helps our audience picture the scene and understand the severity of the situation. In my opinion, a well-written scene can be incredibly meaningful and thought-provoking with the help of imagery, sometimes even more so than a photograph. In literature, this is no different. Authors will describe characters and events in great detail when they feel it is important to the story. They will use imagery to point out character traits, themes, symbols, and motifs. A good author paints you a picture so you can imagine the places, colors, expressions, textures, with all the fine details.</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>887 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Imagery-In-Grendel-36BC3225071CBD50">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay7"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/The-Pedestrian-by-Ray-Bradbury-PKCZWYYYTJ" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">The Pedestrian by Ray Bradbury Essay</h2></a><ul><li>493 Words</li><li>2 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/The-Pedestrian-by-Ray-Bradbury-PKCZWYYYTJ" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">The Pedestrian by Ray Bradbury Essay</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Another very well used literary device in this story is personification.
