My Antonia Questins

 Willa Cather in her novel My Antonia (yes, a signal phrase) offers her view of life during the pioneer time.

 How would My Antonia be different if it were told from Antonia's perspective?
   I believe it would be better in Antonia's perspective because Cather is a girl and wouldn't have to pretend to be a man. I believe it would be more realistic but that is my opinion.

How effective is Cather, a woman, at narrating a story from the point of view of a man? Does Jim sound like a man writing, or does the narrative sound like a woman pretending to be a man?
   Cather is pretty effective pretending to be Jim but at times you can tell its a girl narrating but very rarely.

 Why do you think Jim changed the title from Antonia to My Antonia?
    Jim changed the title because this isn't about every Antonia. It's about the Antonia that he new in his head and he said my because people may not have thought what he thought about Antonia.

the effects of a setting

Author Willa Cather embedded literary devices, such as metaphors, similes, and personification, within her writing.

"As I looked about me I felt that the grass was the country, as the water is the sea. The red of the grass made all the great prairie the colour of wine-stains, or of certain seaweeds when they are first washed up. And there was so much motion in it; the whole country seemed, somehow, to be running."

"The grave, with its tall red grass that was never mowed, was like a little island."

"Winter comes down savagely over a little town on the prairie. The wind that sweeps in from the open country strips away all the leafy screens that hide one yard from another in summer, and the houses seem to draw closer together. The roofs, that looked so far away across the green treetops, now stare you in the face, and they are so much uglier than when their angles were softened by vines and shrubs.



 The setting has a huge effect on the characters in the novel in many forms such as the weather. The towns people are cold in chapter 8 book 2 because it is winter and the book said that they run to the heat and the stoves are like magnets. Tony tells story's were the heat was so bad he thought it was going to cook the earth and the min at the mill would hide under the wagon just to get some shade.

  I picture the story as a old town you see in the old western movies were when it hasn't rained in weeks and as the wind blows it is like a solid sheet of dirt the dust is so thick. I think the houses were old log house that you could lithely fill the wind blowing threw. As I'm Reading this book i see cactus that you have to watch out fore and a lot of snakes as the one that Jim calmed down to keep from striking and horses either sweating or have ice hanging off of them depending on the seasons. I picture the spring rains that come make the whole country green. I see the farmers trying to put up hay for the winter. i smell the warm apple pies that the women bake and the fresh lemonade.
