Please read my order requirements before you do it.

Complete a paragraph. Choose one quotation in the short story “The Pedestrian” by Ray Bradbury and explain what the literary device is. 

• What are your ideas as to how thisliterary device? What is the purpose of it within the story? Thats yourexplanation part of the paragraph. Were talking about one literary device and how it affects thestory. Basically, just whenever youre analyzing a piece of literature, thinkabout it in different sections and how it affects: characters, setting, plot,theme..)
•  Literary Devices (Allegory, Alliteration, Foreshadowing, Hyperbole, Imagery, Irony, Metaphor, Mood, Motif, Onomatopoeia, Personification, Simile, Theme, Imagery(sight, smell, touch, …), etc)
• The first sentence of your paragraph. It should include the name of the story, the name of the author, and what you will be discussing.

• Quotations within a paragraph:

  1. Introduce your quote – cannot begin a sentence with a quotation

  2. Write out your quotation with quotation marks around it – this shows these are not your own words, but taken from somewhere else

  3. We need to cite where we got the quote – in brackets ( ) you need to put the authors last name and the page number where you found the quote. The period comes after the bracket – NOT after the quote. If the quotation contains a ! or a ? that gets included in the quotation marks (part of the quote).

  4. Explain/analyse the quotation – how does this quotation help you make your point

When you choose a quotation, please choose except for the following quotations, 

– The light held him fixed, like a museum specimen, needle thrust through chest 

– “tomblike”

Example Brainstorming for a paragraph) 

The light held himfixed, like a museum specimen, needle thrust through chest (Bradbury 2). <—DO NOT CHOOSE THIS QUOTATION

• Simile
• Comparing Leonard Mead to a museum specimen
• Sight imagery – he is held fixed in the light – the reader can picture him like a deer in headlights
• Sight imagery – needle thrust through chest – informs the reader that this could be painful for Leonard – he is stabbed in his chest (heart) – this would not feel good
• Like a museum specimen – at the will of other people (overlords) – they have no freedom, they are being examined – Leonard is being examined – they are treating him like a bug – like he is not human – like they have complete control over him – and he feels in this situation like he has no control – because he does not – the police have all the power in this scenario – Lonard is as helpless as a bug – he can be squished like it is nothing – they have full control over him
