  43. Experience is an inspiration for living one
  44. our life and dealing with these problems.
  45. Um, in this novel, they see as a symbol for the whole of nature.
  46. But let's focus on the most important characters in the novel.
  47. First of all, we find to Santiago,
  48. he's a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of Ballack.
  49. He's humble yet exhibits whose divide
  50. pride in his abilities,
  51. his knowledge of the sea and its creatures and of his craft is an unparalleled
  52. and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of surf.
  53. Constance, in the same way we find the marlin
  54. Um Santiago Hooks.
  55. The Marlin which will learn at the end of the novel measures 18 ft
  56. until first afternoon of his fishing expedition because of the Marlin Great Size.
  57. Santiago is unable to pull the fishing and the two become engaged in
  58. a kind of took of word that often seems more like an alien
  59. uh, than a struggle.
  60. Also, there is a mandolin.
  61. A boy presently in his adolescence,
  62. mandolin is Santiago as apprentice and devoted attendant.
  63. The old men first to him took him out on a boat when he was nearly five years old.
  64. Due to Santiago as resembled luck mandolins,
  65. parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat.
  66. Next we have the following joe DiMaggio.
  67. Although DiMaggio never appears in the novel, he plays a significant role.
  68. Nonetheless,
  69. santiago worships him as a model of strength and commitment and his thoughts turned
  70. towards DiMaggio whenever he needs to re share himself of his own strength.
  71. Um,
  72. is also part of this here the reader assumes on the bodega in santiago village.
  73. He never appears in the novel,
  74. but he serves an important role in the fisherman's life
  75. by providing him with newspapers that report the baseball scores
  76. and finally, martin like Perico martin,
  77. a cafe owner in Santiago village does not appear in mr to the reader, um,
  78. learns of him through mandolin, who often goes to martin for santiago super.
  79. Um, I consider that all the characters are important in story,
  80. but I think the best character is santa because he is tolerant,
  81. confident and um so strong in his mind with the emotions and artist I really admired.
  82. Um for the other hand, the novelist fiction in literature fiction or
  83. also psychological realism is a narrative generate that emphasize
  84. interior characterization and motivation to exploit the spiritual,
  85. emotional and mental lives of the characters.
  86. Uh the mode um of narration examines the reasons for the behaviors
  87. of the character which properly the plot and explained the story.
  88. This one was his last major work of vision
  89. and I think it fits really well with the text of the book because of the
  90. old story turned around fisherman and his life and in the context of the sea.
  91. Moreover, the whole book,
  92. I was very emotive by the following sentence school quotation,
  93. Everything about him was all except his eyes and they were
  94. the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.
  95. I was emotive for me because I could identify the real contest in our life.
  96. Sometimes different people think that the age is important,
  97. but also the experience is real relative according to the age.
  98. And I think it's a great contrast to have their relation between
  99. um the experiences and the age.
  100. So the characteristic of the cycle aspects in Santiago
  101. fight with his younger eyes and is wonderful.
  102. In addition,
  103. a couple of the features of modernism's realism found in the old men and
  104. the sea by Ernest Hemingway are the
  105. stream of consciousness style and realistic dialogue.
  106. Modernist writers use a stream of consciousness style.
  107. Finally, um,
  108. it is interesting to know how the
  109. authors show us the conflict between real situations
  110. with feelings and emotions and the curious control
  111. in the mind as an internal struggle.
  112. But it's real and resent nowadays with the different generations to
  113. although it is my first book by this author and that I consider that I
  114. need to read another couple of this kind to have a much brother comment,
  115. but I like it and I will recommend it because it is the best book by the Outer.
  116. And it is interesting to read.
  117. Um, I consider that it could be read by younger people,
  118. but any kind of people could read it without any problem.
  119. So, thank you for your attention. Goodbye.
