        <description><![CDATA[There are a lot of things that one can say about characterization. In the most basic definition of characterization is the way a character in a story is portrayed by the author. With that said, there are many different ways in which an author can build characterization.
1. An author can just simply describe the character - physical appearance, emtional qualities, personal traits, etc.
2. An author can also indirectly build a character by the...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[An example of characterization can be seen in the novel 'The Mill on the Floss' by George Eliot. Characterization in general relates to the way characters are portrayed by an author. This can take many forms, direct characterization,indirect characterization and allusion to give but a few. In the case of Maggie, she is shown as being hot-headed, clever,quick-witted but warmly emotional. However, these character traits, as Maggie finds to her...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[In general, characterization means to discover what the character is about, their persona. Readers do this in many ways. Readers look carefully at dialogue, both from the protagonist (the main character) and from the characters around him or her. What others say about or to the main character can be revealing of a characters personality and motivation. The reader can also characterize by looking at the character's physical appearance, their...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[There are several ways to compare and contrast Maggie and Tom Tulliver.  They are the central characters of the novel, and they embody two very different outlooks on life.
Tom, the boy, is bound by tradition and is bent on achieving things that the world says are valuable.  He wants to win the mill back for his father and the rest of his family, and give honor to his family name.  Tom is much like his mother, who cares about appearances and...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Several factors contribute to the idea in the reader's mind of Mr. Tulliver as a tragic character, although Mr. Tulliver is not an example of a classic one.  Classically "tragedy" means "representations of serious actions which eventuate in a disastrous conclusion from the protagonist (the chief character) (331.)  First, it can be argued that Mr. Tulliver is not the protaganist of the novel (that is probably Maggie.)  This is not...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Mr. Tulliver owns a mill on the River Floss, and has a wife and two children.  The children, Tom and Maggie, are different in appearance and character.  Maggie is intelligent, wild, and dark; Tom is fair, inflexible, and has common sense rather than intellectual brilliance.  Tom is sent away to be educated at the Reverend Stellings' -- there he meets a deformed boy named Philip Wakem.  Lucy visits Tom and meets Philip there, too, and...]]></description>
