  1. Hello, my students.
  2. Today's video is about realism on dhe situation Library.
  3. This is part two.
  4. We're going deeper into the necklace.
  5. I would like to draw your attention that the criticism
  6. on the analysis and the interpretations that are found on,
  7. you know, on the Internet are very, very much, you
  8. know, you will find them in abundance.
  9. Uh, I would appreciate if you further your understanding by
  10. choosing and selecting, you know, two or three articles and
  11. read about these concepts.
  12. Actually, papers were written about these concepts.
  13. Now, uh, let's analyze these two terms realism and situation
  14. ivory in relation to this story.
  15. Uh, a lot of people like the necklace because it
  16. is a slice off life.
  17. Very similar toot.
  18. It reflects life, as is it is a faithful representation
  19. off life.
  20. How money people, How maney ladies and this life are
  21. like, you know, the main character a lot.
  22. How maney ladies are dissatisfied with their medical lives.
  23. Ah, lot.
  24. How many ladies love appearances and to them they are.
  25. You know, appearances are the most important aspect in their
  26. lives. A lot.
  27. This is realism.
  28. Literature inflicts life.
  29. It's not like you know, so far from it.
  30. No, it's not like romanticism that magnified reality.
  31. Glorified reality, idealized reality now.
  32. So let's see what realism is okay here.
  33. I liked what I read here on its really important.
  34. I'm going to read only the first one.
  35. Ah, nde, the first paragraph, and he would continue it
  36. with it because it's a comparison between and Cinderella on
  37. the main character in the necklace.
  38. Now, with his writing Giddy moccasins, Goal is toe look
  39. at the word reflect duplicate actually represent reality by combining
  40. his observations and reflections.
  41. However, he duplicates with such sort il ity that the
  42. outcome is the surprise.
  43. The reader.
  44. It's like it's a surprise to the reader.
  45. The writer wants his readers to understand how people change
  46. depending on circumstances, while helping us as leaders to see
  47. his perspective of life.
  48. I believe the faithfully that's the key word in realism
  49. duplicates reality because Cinderella is a fairy tale.
  50. But the necklace is the story of what happens to
  51. a beautiful woman in the real world.
  52. Real is very important.
  53. Fairy tales have happy endings, but life is brutal, inconsequential
  54. on disconnected, full on inexplicable, illogical catastrophes.
  55. There are many examples off how the reality off Central
  56. a compares on contrast toe, you know, ultimate reality.
  57. So basically a reality is a faithful, truthful, duplication and
  58. representation off, you know, off life.
  59. So it's not glorification of reality.
  60. It's not magnification off reality.
  61. It's presenting, you know, reality as is.
  62. This is what the people needed at that time.
  63. This is really important.
  64. Now look at this quote.
  65. This actually is closely connected to the situational irony.
  66. When you have expectations, you are setting yourself up for
  67. disappointment. Why disappointment?
  68. Because there is a discrepancy, a difference between what you
  69. expect on what happens in reality on.
  70. This is dramatic irony.
  71. Let's see how now here we have the situational irony
  72. explained in a laneway.
  73. Very simple.
  74. Let's see what a situation library.
  75. It's when actions or events have an effect that is
  76. opposite from what was intended or what the outcome is
  77. or where a where the outcome is contrary to expectations.
  78. So here, you know, when first year madam first year
  79. actually lent the fake, you know, Nicolas to Matile on,
  80. she didn't know that it was big.
  81. And then the example is, you know, here the plot
  82. of the necklace has situational irony because after replacing your
  83. friends, you know, expensive looking and necklace on working for
  84. 10 years, it turned out to be fake on.
  85. This is really the example.
  86. Honestly, life off life is full off situation.
  87. And, you know, I agree because we expect you know
  88. too much.
  89. Now, your job, Your task is to really think Okay
  90. here, Another another slide, actually.
  91. Which tells you what dramatic irony is.
  92. Basically the result here when, madam, you know, the main
  93. character, boroughs and Nicolas to fit in with the rich
  94. people she envies.
  95. But the loss off the necklace results in her being
  96. poorer than she Waas.
  97. She worked hard for 10 years for a peek diamond
  98. necklace. That is the irony.
  99. Your task is basically to compare Cinderella, which is differently,
  100. not realism.
  101. Okay, to, you know, to the main character in the
  102. necklace. I hope this was really helpful.
  103. Thank you.
  104. Very, very, very much.
  105. Yes,
