Literary Elements and devices

Itb TEOTB

* In the myth "The earth on turtles back" The character's were put text and worked together smoothly right from the start.

* In the legend "In the Beginning" the characters seemed to have automatic conflict when lock-chew disturbed the

owners of the land.

*"Wind asked, "Who will make

the land" The author gives a

non living character a human

action which is speaking.

(Personification)

* The animals were referred

to as the "water animals.

Characters

BOTH

*Both myths have In the beginning have separated characters. The humans and the animals or things(The wind and sun from "In the Beginning")

*Both myths characters Animals Built their land o soon be shared by everyone

* The animals wanted their world to be perfect and each creature had something to make it perfect whether it was their wings or tail.

The little tiny muskrat had

the same qualities as the

ancient chief which goes to

show no matter how big

small old young you are the

possibilities are endless.

*The characters in this story came

of ass very selfless and kind in

there acts to help this woman.

* Wind the character

seemed to know a lot

about what a world

should look like so they

have probably seen the

upper and lower world.

Itb TEOTB

*There was three

settings in"In the beginning"

The upper,below and this

world.

*There were a few settings

in this myth.First skyland.

We meet the tree which is

their god i assuming

and this god reaches

into the other

world which is

earth.

"In the beginning"

was also pre-earth

because of its title

which suggests this

story was the

beginning.

Settings

BOTH

*Both story started off or evolved in a setting of water and grew to a big world.

*Both stories have earth below the water.

*Both stories have multiply worlds.

*Id assume that this

story takes place

thousands of years ago

by the first sentence

"Before earth was here."

It says

"water covered

everything but

the Crawfish were

bothering the owners

land .

*It says "There is waters far as one could see" so to begin there is no land.

Itb TEOTB

*Repetition was used a lot in

this myth for example when the

animals kept trying to swim to the

bottom and gather earth but kept

failing until the muskrat broke

this repetition

* Repetition is also

used a lot in this

myth when the

wind says"Who

will make land

appear/who

will make

light"

Elements and

Devices

BOTH

*Both myths have personification.

*Imagery is used in both myths.

*Allusion is also

used a lot in this myth.

When the turtles back

is described as the

foundation of

the world

Itb TEOTB

BOTH

*In this myth keeping peace

seems to be very important

towards their cultural.

*Although we don't

get a direct metaphor or

something to show some

type of god the wind

gives a lot of advice

on the new world and

they all listen so

maybe that's

important to

their culture.

Cultures

I think in both Myths diversity was a big thing in each cultural because everyone was different and deserving and purposeful.

*In this myth a higher

power was a big thing for

their people.They were

extremely passionate

about the wife's

dream and were

determined to make

it real because it

was big deal to

them.

* *The Ancient Chief

probably died using his

last breath to uproot this

tree which says a lot About

the culture of there people

and how they all feel very

strongly about "Dreams

of great power.
