The Pearl

In Chapter 1 of "The Pearl," a polysyndeton example can be found in the description of the peaceful and harmonious setting in which Kino and his family live. Such as "the-thatched roofed brush house was lighted gently with the dawn" or "the wind cried and went again, a little breath of rest."

A more educated or mature person may have donated the object to a museum, as did happen in real life with the Hope Diamond, in the hands of Uncle Sam,. the jewel is safe and won"t hurt anybody.

First page '...a lizzard makes a great skittering if he runs among them.'

Skittering being the onamatopoeia

The death of the child, which does not occur in some edited versions, and or the sad back to nature act of Kino tossing his valuable find back in the Ocean! Imagine , say Richard Burton doing this with one of Liz" diamonds! Yecch!

Well if you look on page 23, it clearly says (when people found out about the pearl) "The news stirred up something infinitely black and evil in the town; the black distillate was like the scorpion, or like hunger in the smell of food, or like loneliness when love is withheld. The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture venom, and the town swelled and puffed with the pressure of it." Hope I answered your question! =]

In chapter 5 of "Lord of the Flies," Jack dismisses the littleuns' fear and believes they should not be worried about the beast. He asserts that there is no monster on the island and encourages them to join his tribe for protection and safety. Jack sees their fear as a tool to manipulate them into joining his group.

In "The Pearl," the city of grass huts symbolizes simplicity, tradition, and a close connection to nature, while the city of stone represents modernity, progress, and a departure from traditional ways of life. The contrast between the two cities highlights the clash between tradition and modernity that Kino and his family experience in the story.

In chapter 2, Kino dives into the water to search for pearls. He carefully scans the ocean floor, feeling for oysters with his hands. When he finds an oyster, he quickly returns to the surface to pry it open and search for any valuable pearls inside.

coyotito dies, yet the reason how is unclear. Most people think it was a tracker, who shot the gun towards the cave to silence the 'baby coyote' whining in the cave. Yet no one reads in between the lines. When one of the trackers tries to get away from kino, he starts climbing up the cave, Kino shoots at him, misses, then kills the tracker. So Kino could have just as well killed his son. Your welcome.

Kino does not have the money to pay the doctor.

The news of the pearl brought hope and greed to each of these characters. The priest saw an opportunity to further his own agenda, the shopkeepers wanted to profit from it, the doctor saw a chance to heal his daughter, the pearl buyers sought to exploit the situation, and the beggars hoped for some charity to come their way.

The irony lies in the fact that Hester's daughter is named Pearl, a symbol of purity and beauty, while Pearl herself is often portrayed as wild and uncontrollable, embodying a more complex and multifaceted nature than her name suggests.

His name is Coyotito

In John Steinbeck's novel "The Pearl," the word "edifice" appears in the novella's first chapter. It describes the colonial capital, which is a significant location in the story.

In the novel "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck, the title itself refers to the pearl of great price that Kino finds. This pearl symbolizes wealth and opportunity for Kino and his family, as well as the destructive power of greed and envy. Another reference to a pearl of great price can be seen when Kino's neighbors and even the doctor covet the pearl for their own selfish purposes.

The music of evil represents Kino's inner turmoil and conflict as he contemplates the consequences of his actions following the pearl's discovery. It symbolizes the fear and doubt that the priest's visit brings, as well as the darkness that threatens to consume Kino and his family.

What high school are you from? The Pearl is a famous short novel by John Steinbeck. Up to a point it can be examined as a sort of Male variation on the Hope Diamond legend, the curse of a valuable object. There is some violence and prejudice in the stale- the main characters are Spanish and it takes place on a Spanish-American ( either Cuba or Puerto Rico) island. In many ways it is more like Hemingway than Steinbeck and is an absorbing read. There is no dirty language, rape or seductive scenes, or anything like that. It is somewhat down-beat, but not off-color.

One opinion:

I don't like it. It is a weird amalgam of mythology with some realism and a tragic outcome. The character's names do not seem to fit.

Another opinion:

It was a good story. The Pearl tells a lot about human nature and how humans can quickly change their opinion of someone if they think it will be to their advantage. Kino makes a difficult choice in the end, but one that ends up being the best choice for his family.

The dynamic character in "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck is Kino, the main protagonist. He undergoes a significant transformation throughout the story as he discovers the true nature of greed, power, and the consequences of his pursuit of wealth through finding the valuable pearl. His character evolves from a simple fisherman to a man willing to do whatever it takes to protect his family and break free from oppression.

In "The Pearl," Kino is often compared to a predatory animal, like a hunting wolf, due to his fierce protective instincts and determination to protect his family. This comparison underscores his primal instincts and the lengths he will go to in order to safeguard his loved ones.
