ENGL 449 Lecture 7: September 30
Document Summary
Group discussions on various parts of the novel. James vane doesn"t want to hurt anyone else, just the person who hurt his sister. Dorian doesn"t care who he hurts, he is sort of a nuisance to everyone. James vane is probably the most moral in this situation. There isn"t much internal reflection, only the part where dorian realizes that he can use his young looks against james vane: this is happening outside a bar, in the darkness, the scenery is a lot darker. The scene matches what is taking place: dorian has changed since the beginning of the play, he no longer looks to henry and. Basil to define himself , he knows that he has youthful beauty and wields it against. Free indirect discourse: where the narration switches from narration to a character speaking without really telling you so.
