I l some motive assessment.
00:09 - 00:13
I own Callahan on Richard Matheson's novel, I am legend.
00:16 - 00:24
Mm I am legend.
00:25 - 00:27
The central point of Richard Matheson's novel.
00:30 - 00:42
Mhm. The key idea in Richard Matheson's novel, I am
00:42 - 00:47
legend. The protagonist, robert neville gains unhealthy and negative habits
00:47 - 00:50
such as drinking and unnecessary killing, which are created.
00:51 - 00:55
There is time in isolation levels, loneliness leads to depression
00:56 - 01:01
and anxiety, revealing the difficulties of survival without companionship.
01:12 - 01:13
Why should we care about this?
01:15 - 01:18
The audience should care about this because isolation is a
01:18 - 01:23
very important topic and theme in the novel and his
01:23 - 01:25
NEville's major disadvantage in the story.
01:38 - 01:43
The first evidence of how isolation affects stumbles like end,
01:43 - 01:44
quote Virginia.
01:45 - 01:48
He took a step and cried aloud as the room
01:48 - 01:49
flowing itself off balance.
01:50 - 01:56
At the same page 58, in a drunken stupor, neville
01:56 - 02:02
reminisces about his late wife is still devastated by her
02:02 - 02:06
passing and his memories of her leave him with remorse
02:06 - 02:19
and sadness and evening the second evidence of how isolation
02:20 - 02:25
affects levels life end quote, because he wanted the dog
02:26 - 02:27
because he needed the dog.
02:28 - 02:29
Matheson, page 86.
02:31 - 02:35
In most cases, people want dogs, they don't need them.
02:37 - 02:38
By stating that robert needed the dog.
02:39 - 02:44
Matheson implies that neville's loneliness has reached a crisis and
02:45 - 02:46
he truly did need the dog.
03:04 - 03:07
The 3rd piece of evidence of how isolation affects novels.
03:07 - 03:13
Life end, quote, Something had changed, trying to analyze it.
03:14 - 03:18
He came to the conclusion that his last drunk had
03:18 - 03:22
put him on the bottom at the very idea of
03:22 - 03:24
frustration and despair.
03:25 - 03:31
Matheson, page 100 after much time in isolation never results
03:32 - 03:33
to alcohol to feel better.
03:34 - 03:37
Eventually realizes that the alcohol does not help his attitude
03:38 - 04:01
or help tying together the quotes, the three pieces of
04:01 - 04:05
evidence I have supplied, all tie into the many things
04:05 - 04:06
novel gained and lost.
04:08 - 04:10
You realize that drinking doesn't help him.
04:11 - 04:14
He had memories of his wife, which crushed his spirit,
04:15 - 04:19
and the dog who served as a companion shows he
04:20 - 04:23
was desperate for any form of life in any form
04:23 - 04:23
of companionship.
04:42 - 04:43
Thank you for watching.
