I believe that“A cry in the wild” does a better job of telling the story.I believe this because I liked the imagery because he was thinking that the dog was licking him but a wolf was really licking him.He wished the wolf would go away and leave him alone and the wolf had gone away.He was running through the woods and imagined that he saw his mother kissing a man in the woods.He had good foreshadowing because he heard the plane coming towards him and heard the bear coming right at him.I don’t like the way “Hatchet” told the story.It didn’t like their imagery or foreshadowing.like when he kept trying to imagine things. I think “A cry in the wild”tells the story the best.
In my opinion I think that Hatchet does a better job of telling the story better than“A Cry in the Wild”,because it tells you how he feels when he does something. For instances in “A Cry in the Wild”it doesn’t tell you how he feels when drives the airplane,but in Hatchet it says that he felt like the plane was alive in page 4 of Hatchet. Also in chapter 9 in Hatchet it said that when he built a fire he said that he felt like the fire was his friend also gave him heat and light. In the movie “A Cry in the Wild” it didn’t even say anything. It showed how he did it and boom there was fire.
In the short story "Cornet at night" by Sinclair Ross foreshadowing plays a very important role in the piece of literature. Foreshadowing is the slight hint or clue that the author gives the reader to see how they can get the reader to imagine the vast amount of possibilities of what is to come in the future. In this story, foreshadowing is seen at many different times, but there are two instances where they are noted very strongly.
In the film Unseen Tears, Native American families express the impact they still feel from their elders being forced into the Southern Ontario’s Mohawk Institute and the New York’s Thomas Indian School. Survivors of the boarding schools speak of their traumatic experiences of being removed from their families, being abused, and experiencing constant attack on their language and culture.
I believe that the novel Hatchet told the story better than Cry In The Wild because it has better details than the movie for example when Brian knew he had to do something he thought it out before he did it . The cry in the wild when he knew he had to do something he didn't really plan it out like Brian did in the book.
Used in great magnitude throughout the novel, the inevitably important element of foreshadowing is used skillfully by the author to arouse a thought-provoking uncertainty within the reader. Foreshadowing, as presented in Gathering Blue, invigorates deep interest within the reader through ominous occurrences that only provide a slight hint of intimidating future events or betrayals that have potential to bring doom and misery. For only a slight hint is provided, the reader has considerable freedom to imagine what doom lays ahead, resulting in a gradual intensification of the novel’s suspense. The author writes, “Now she was all alone. Kira felt the aloneness, the uncertainty, and a great sadness.” (p.4), “Suddenly Kira realized with horror what the sound was. But now there was only silence.” (p.121), “He lowered the robe then, and she saw nothing more. Perhaps,
The first scene of a play usually sets up the basic themes and situations that the remainder will work with. In Shakespeare’s play King Lear, the very first scene presents many of the play's basic themes and images. The recurrent imagery of human senses and of "nothing," the distortion of familial and social ties, the gradual dissolution of Lear's kingship, all make their first appearances in the first lines of Shakespeare's play.
With the use of foreshadowing, symbolism, and imagery, James Hurst exquisitely portrays Doodle as frightened, displaying to the audience his longing for togetherness with Brother. When the scarlet ibis lands in their yard and dies in front of them, it is foreshadowed that Doodle will succumb to death as well. This can be inferred from the symbolism of the scarlet ibis to Doodle as they both are different, Doodle unlike the other kids his age and the scarlet ibis dissimilar to the rest of the birds in South Carolina. Foreshadowing his blood stained neck and shown as fearful in this situation, “Doodle’s hands were clasped at his throat” (Hurst 473). By foreshadowing Doodle’s death with his ambiguous actions and symbolism to the scarlet ibis,

Symbolism and Irony in The Tell-Tale Heart. In Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Tell-Tale Heart," the author combines vivid symbolism with subtle irony. Although the story runs only four pages, within those few pages many examples of symbolism and irony abound. In short, the symbolism and irony lead to an enormously improved story as compared to a story with the same plot but with these two elements missing. "
It is clear that the author, Roald Dahl, utilizes a variety of literary devices in order to create an element of suspense in the text, “The Landlady.” An example of this would be Dahl’s use of foreshadowing in the text. The Landlady states in the text, “But my dear boy, he never left. He’s still here. Mr. Temple is also here. They’re on the fourth floor, both of them together” (Dahl 5). It is evident how this would contribute to the component of suspense for the reader. The use of foreshadowing throughout “The Landlady” is meant to hint towards Billy’s impending doom, and thus would compel readers to anticipate Billy’s fate, creating suspense. Foreshadowing contributes a great deal to the dark humor/mysterious aspect of Dahl’s style of writing.
Markus Zusak uses many literary devices to pull in the readers though one device he uses that is exceptionally outstanding is his use of foreshadowing. Zusak though reveals the final outcome he does not give away details of the plot. It is human nature to want to know more than what we already do hence as to why foreshadowing is so important it pulls in the reader to read more, to find out more detail as to what really happens.
