Lennie and Curley are in the bunk house and Curley just got back from looking for his wife, Lennie starts laughing when Curley is trying to intimidate the others after they had made fun of his wife.
ReplyDeleteLennie’s perspective is that he is just thinking about playing with the rabbits at his and George’s new place when they get it. This is shown on pg. 31 of the PDF where “Lennie was still smiling with delight at the memory of the ranch.”
Curley’s perspective is that Lennie, who is bigger and stronger than he is, was laughing at him for trying to intimidate people after they had made fun of him and his wife. This is shown on pg. 31 of the PDF when Curley turns to Lennie “Curley stepped over to Lennie like a terrier. ‘What the hell you laughin’ at?’ Lennie looked blankly at him. ‘Huh?’ Then Curley’s rage exploded. ‘Come on, ya big bastard. Get up on your feet.’ “
Owen Burdick
Deletei agree with you because all lennie thinks about is playing with mice, rats and the rabbits when george gets his place. so lennie wasn't trying to laugh when curley was trying to intimidate people they just caught him at a bad time and that's just how linnie's brains work he only thinks about what he want's.
A scene in chapter ¾ when lennie and crooks are talking about how lennie was in his room and usally people dont go in his room because he is a negro in the book it says “Nobody got any right in here but me.” Lennie gulped and his smile grew more fawning. “I ain’t doing nothing,” he said. “Just come to look at my puppy. And I seen your light,” he explained. “Well, I got a right to have a light. You go on get outa my room. (pg.34)lennie saw it as he was just looking at his puppy and doing nothing wrong and crooks was confused why lennie was in his room.

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when George and Lennie are in the cabin and George is proud and Lennie is not at all.
ReplyDeleteGeorge’s perspective is him talking to Lennie in the bunkes This is shown on pg. 20 when George says, “ Maybe he ain’t bright, but I never seen such a worker. He damn near killed his partner buckin’ barley. There ain’t nobody can keep up with him. God awmighty, I never seen such a strong guy.”
Lennie’s perspective is him talking to George . This is shown on pg. 20 when Lennie says, “ “Jus’ tell Lennie what to do an’ he’ll do it if it don’t take no figuring. He can’t think of nothing to do himself, but he sure can take orders.” .”
I agree with Cason when he talks about how Lennie isn't the smartest but can do stuff. Lennie might not be the smartest but he is the strongest. Also George is always telling people how Lennie is the strongest man they will ever meet. I think he does this so people will see that he is usefull in a way besides his brain.

DeleteA scene in the book where there are too different perspectives in in chapter ¾ when lennie goes into crooks bunk after looking at the dogs and sees his light and in this Lennie is just trying to make a friend while crook is confused why he is there because no one really ever visits him because he is a negro “Lennie smiled helplessly in an attempt to make friends. Crooks said sharply, You got no right to come in my room. This here’s my room. Nobody got any right in here but me.” shown on page 34 “Why ain’t you wanted? Lennie asked. “’Cause I’m black.” also shown on page 34.
ReplyDeleteDalaneyJulius
DeleteI agree with Crooks perspective. I also kind of thought he was a little confused, but I thought more as though crooks thought Lennie was there to maybe verbally abuse him. Like you said, Crooks quotes he doesn't want him in his bunk because he's a negro. So I just kind of thinking he thought Lennie was gonna do something.
DeleteKaeden Grawvunder I agree with crooks and Lennies perspective since yes Crooks has every right to be comfuzed since no one visits him but at the same time Crooks should be a little more open since he has never really taked to Lennie and not everyone back then was horable to african americans a believe if Crooks and Lennie talked they would get to know each other made maybe have some sort of a friend ship.
DeleteA scene with different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Carlson and the old man candy are arguing about the candy dog because he stinks. Carlson thinks he a dumb old no teeth stinky dog. This is shown on page 23 when carlson wants to kill the dog but candy doesn't because that's all he got. Candy perspective is he had the dog since he was a little puppy he didn't know the dog smell that because he us to him.

DeleteAlex i agree with you because you are saying carlson and candy have completely different perspectives on the dog which is true because carlson didnt raise that dog since birth and loved it all its life so candy cannot understand why carlson would just want to kill it and get a new one and carlson cannot understand why candy wouldn't want to do that because neither of them have been in each others shoes. This is shown when Carlson is saying I don't know why you don't want to just kill that old dog and get a brand new young pup. And candy obviously is never going to do that because he raised that dog and that dog is like family to him so he’d never do that and carlson doesn't understand that because he didn't raise that dog.

DeleteAlex I agree with you because Candy and Carlson have two drastically different opinions on the dog. Candy loves the dog with all his heart while Mr. Carlson hates the dog because it stinks and it's too old to have any purpose. Mr Carlson wants Candy to put down the dog but he could never do that because he raised him from a pup.
DeleteSteven Nadolny
DeleteI agree with you Alex because Candy and Carlson have 2 different perspectives. They have 2 different perspectives because Carlson said that the dog stinks and should kill it. But Candy doesn't really want to because that's all he got and has been with it when the dog was a little puppy. Like on page 23 when Carlson was telling him that the dog smells and tells candy to get rid of it.
DeleteA scene with different character perspectives is found in chapter 3 when candy wants to keep his dog since he has known the dog since it was a pup and Carlson keeps saying that the dog stinks and he keeps questioning Candy as to why he even has the dog anymore and why he doesn't just kill it. Then Carlson says "If you was to take him out and shoot him right in the back of the
ReplyDeletehead—” he leaned over and pointed, “—right there, why he’d never know what
hit him.” This shows their different perspectives because in Candy'd mind the dog has been around for a while and it's not just some stinky old dog that doesn't know whats going on because its so old but its a dog that he's loved since it was just a little puppy. On the other hand Carlson just thinks the dog is old and stinky and doing no good anymore.
I agree with Lakota. Carlson never had a connection with the dog so he wants to kill it because it smells really bad. While on the other hand Candy loves the dog since they grew up together and he dosent want his best friend to die. But Candy was offered to get a new puppy. Both sides have good reasoning's.

ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when George and Lennie are talking about how Lennie broke Curlys hand. George’s perspective is that it wasnt Lennies fault that he broke Curlys hand. This is shown on page 65 when George says, “It aint your fault, you dont need to be scarit no more. You done jus’ what i tol’ you to.” Lennie’s perspective is that he is in trouble. This is shown on page 65 when Lennie says, “I didn’t want no trouble.”
ReplyDeleteThese two characters are seeing things differently at this point in the story because Lennie thinks he's in trouble with Curly while George is telling him it’s ok and that he's not in trouble.
Andrew John, I agree with you that Lennie and George have differing perspectives. Lennie thinks that it is bad that he broke Curley's hand. While George thinks that it is fine and it is not Lennie’s fault. Lennie has a pretty good reason to be worried. Lennie seems to mess up everything for George and he thinks that they might be kicked off the ranch. Another example of this is shown on page 32 of the PDF when Lennie cries, “I didn’t wanta hurt him.” Right after Lennie gets done he knows what he did was wrong and sometimes his strength overtakes him. On the other hand George thinks that everything is fine and that it is not his fault. This can also be shown on page 32 of the PDF when George says to Lennie, “You don’t need to be scairt no more. You done jus’ what I tol’ you to…” George wants to comfort Lennie and assure him that he did not do anything wrong. I also think that George blames this partly on himself because of the way that he was convincing Lennie into fighting Curley. Georges emotions and hate for Curley overtook him in this situation and in the end someone got hurt.
DeleteAndrew johnathan i agree with your comment it is very insightful and well done andrew. The part where you're saying Lennie thinks it's his fault I agree with because he is blaming himself for the harm of another person and is freaking out because he didn't want to hurt him. Lennie goes on and says on page 65, “ george can i still tend the rabbits.'' He says this because he thinks he's in trouble and won't be able to do what he's always wanted to do which is tend the rabbits. This is further evidence showing that lennie thinks he's in trouble because of what he has done and george telling him it's not his fault because george says yes he can still tend the rabbits.
DeleteCarver Spilski
DeleteI agree with Andy, with Lennie and George having 2 different perspectives because Lennie is worried and George is telling him that it isn't his fault. Because Curly started hitting him because he was laughing but Lennie isn't laughing at him so that's when Curly starts hitting him and George tells him to fight back.

DeleteA scene where different character perspectives were shown was in chapter 3 on page 23 when Carlson and Candy share different perspectives on the whole situation about the dog. Carlson believes the young pup is useless or dumb. Carlson's perspective on the dog is shown when he says, "Look, Candy. This ol' dog jus' suffers hisself all the time." and when he says, "I'll shoot him for you." But Candy's perspective is way different from his. She responds to his hateful comment by saying, "I'm used to him, I had him from a pup." She feels this way because the puppy is basically her family and has been with her since day one. Therefore she has an emotional connection with the pup.
ReplyDeleteAkyah i agree with you because Carlson never had a connection with the dog so he wants to kill it because it smells really bad. While on the other hand Candy loves the dog since they grew up together and he doesn't want his best friend to die. But Candy was offered to get a new puppy. Both sides have good reasoning, but Carlson will never have the feeling and connection with the dog like candy does
DeleteI agree with you Akyah because how Candy has had this connection and relationship with his dog all these years, Carlson doesn't really know what its like to feel that way especially with someone that feels like family, and for Carlson to just go kill the dog is rude to Candy.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you Armani that Carlson wants to shoot the dog because it stinks and it can hardly move. In the text Carlson says, “That dog of Candy’s is so God damn old he can’t hardly walk. Stinks like hell, too. Ever’ time he comes into the bunkhouse I can smell him for two, three days. Why’n’t you get Candy to shoot his old dog and give him one of the pups to raise up? I can smell that dog a mile away. Got no teeth,damn near blind, can’t eat. Candy feeds him milk. He can’t chew nothing else.” this tells us how carlson feels and I understand him
DeleteI agree with you Armani that Carlson wants the dog gone because in paragraph 3 he says “God awmighty, that dog stinks. Get him outa here, Candy! I don’t know nothing that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get him out” But to Candy the dog is all he's got because the other guys there don't really treat him equally since he is missing an arm and he is also old, so the only thing that he feels he's got is the dog.

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when Candy brings his dog into the cabin but Arlson tells him to kill the dog because it just suffers it has no teeth and it cant walk without having pain but Candy gets upset because he's has the dog since it was a pup so he doesn't want to kill it.
ReplyDeleteCarlson said “if you was to take him out and shoot him right in the back of the head” this shows that Carlson doesn't care about how Candy feels he just cares about what he thinks.
I agree with Alan because when he explains his scene thing he put in a lot of detail like when candy brings the dog to the cabin but Carlson tells him to get rid of the dog so which means kill the dog because the dog has no teeth and it cant walk without it being in pain but candy dislikes that idea because the dog and him have a strong bond. Carlson says”if you were able to take him out and shoot him in the back if the head” this shows that Carlson doesn't care about candy's feelings he just cares about what candy has to say like how he thinks.
DeleteAlan I agree with you because throughout the chapter all Carlson wants is the dog gone and he just wants to kill it. Carlson also doesn't care about what candy says and I feel like this is because candy is also an old man he just feels like he can persuade him to do what he wants. Another thought is Carlson has never really had a connection with the dog so he doesn't really care about it as much as Candy does. An example I found from the book that Carlson would rather just kill the dog is in paragraph 3 where it says “ ‘He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?’ ”
Delete
DeleteI agree with Alan point of view in the story, that candy and carlson were in the bunk together and carlso had a different view about candy's dog.This is supported of when alan refers to the line of one of the characters,”If you was to take him out and shoot right in the back of the head”. This is what I agree because we both agree that they both have different thoughts about candy's dog.
ReplyDeleteLennie's perspective is still interesting to me because he seems like the same character in and throughout the chapters i've read. Yet he still has a lot of depth to explore like when he has animals or when he stole the puppy from the pen. He had the perspective of its his puppy and he's gonna care and cuddle it when in reality he actually was hurting it by taking it away from the mom and not letting it eat. Which George yelled at him and told Lennie that hes gonna kill it but Lennie said that he was sorry and didn't mean any harm he just wanted to pet it. Just like how he did with the mouse and that is just like how he is with everything and anything.
Slims perspective is calm,chill or completely out of it. he lets everything sink in with him and he is just chill just like when George was talking to him about Lennie and what he did in weed and talked to him about who Lennie is and the whole time it was like slim is really understanding and nice or he is totally out of it because he was forced to drown his pups sense he kept saying “it wasn't nothing” when they talked about the puppies and the whole time he was calm and showed no anger or happiness and even when he tried showing empathy it was like he was a robot.
I agree with you Carver that Slim’s perspective is kinda weird because he shows very little emotion because if someone was messing with my pups and taking them away from their mother I would be mad because the dog could die but Slim is just chill I wonder what's his backstory and maybe he's just trying to get rid of the puppy's
DeleteI also agree with you Carver. Slim is pretty chill and calm. He takes a lot of situations in calm way. Like for example on page 64 when he told Curley not to tell the boss other he'll tell everyone what really happened. He says it in a very calm way which is pretty cool. This is why Slim is probably my favorite character in the book, he's just very chill and calm.
DeleteI agree with carver that leanie still has to know a lot about himself,and also I agree that slim's emotions were off because he was showing a bit of emotion towards others .

ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 . When George and Lennie are inside the cabin when Lennie had the pup in the house and that George would not let him keep it because George thought that he would kill it. George's perspective on the puppy is that even though he wants Lennie to be happy, he likes to kill things that are easy to fit into his hand because Lennie likes dead things. George thinks that he will start doing the same things that he used to do to the mice to the puppy's and since they were someone else's puppy that he does not want to be the cause of that. This is shown on page ( 22 of the PDF) when George says “I told’ you you couldn’t bring that up in here.”.
On Lennie side of this pup thing since he is challenged and that he is used to killing things that are smaller because he likes dead things that (we as the reader) might assume that he might kill it and that since he does not understand that yet George is getting nervous about it. Lennie also does not understand that he is taking away the pup from its mother because he wants something to use like a fidget toy but since George took away the mice from him that he is using the pups instead. This is shown on page ( 22 of the PDF) when Lennie says “Give ‘um to me, George. I’ll take ‘em back. I didn’t mean no harm, George. Honestly I didn’t. I just’ wanted to pet ‘um a little.”

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter ¾ when Lennie and George are thinking about Curley’s wife. Lennie’s perspective is that he likes Curley’s wife. This is shown on pg. 35 when Lennie is looking Curley's wife top to bottom, “Lennie’s eyes moved down over her body, and though she did not seem to be looking at Lennie she bridled a little. She looked at her fingernails.” This tells us that Lennie shows passion toward Curley’s wife. George’s perspective is that he doesn’t like that Lennie is showing passion towards Curley’s wife because this can lead to Lennie beat up for looking if Curley catches him. This is shown on pg. 32 when George Says, “Don’t you even take a look at that *****. I don’t care what she says and what she does. I seen ‘em poison before, but I never seen no piece of jail bait worse than her. You leave her be.” This tells us that George’s perspective is that he doesn’t want Lennie near her.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Ron, When George told Lennie that he didn't want him to be around her because he wants to keep Lennie out of trouble. Because if Lennie gets in trouble before they have the money to buy their own ranch they will be forced to leave and have to walk and get another job forcing them to find another source of income.
DeleteRain Meyer
DeleteI agree with Ron, when Lennie was looking at curleys wife because he liked her but, George did not and George's perspective was that he only wanted to be there for the money and if Lennie got them in trouble they would have to leave
DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Carlson talks about how bad smelling and old the dog is and in the book it says, “He stopped and sniffed the air, and still sniffing, looked down at the old dog. ‘God awmighty, that dog stinks. Get him outa here, Candy! I don’t know nothing that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get him out.’ ” To Carlson the dog to is the worst smelling thing and he doesn't want him there he wants the dog gone, but to Candy the dog has been his best friend since he was a pup and he really loves him and therefore he doesn't want to let go of him.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Angle, when Candy and his dog have been best friends for a long time and he doesn't want Carlson to kill his dog. Because if Carlson does, what is gonna be left of Candy if the dog was like a best friend to him.
DeleteCarlson and candy have different perspectives on how they see candy’s old dog. Carlson sees the dog as an old stinky dog that takes up space. This is shown on page 23 of the PDF when Carlson says “God awmighty, that dog stinks. Get him outa here, Candy! I don’t know nothing that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get him out.” Candy’s perspective is different on the dog because it is his own dog that he has been around and had since it was a puppy. This is also shown in the same paragraph (page 23) of the PDF where the author writes “He reached over and patted the ancient dog” candy apologized saying “I been around him so much I never notice how he stinks.” This shows how candy is unsure about how his old dog stinks but doesn’t want to be rude and disrespectful to carlson that he is being rude to his for saying his dog smells.

ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 4 when Crooks and Curley’s wife are arguing about her being in his room. Crooks had issues when Lennie and Candy went in his room, but when Curley’s wife came in he knew that she was going to be no good. Crook’s perspective is that she should not be in his room. This is shown on page 39 of the PDF when Crook says, “You got no rights comin’ in a colored man’s room. You got no rights messing around in here at all. Now you jus’ get out, an’ get out quick. If you don’t, I’m gonna ast the boss not to ever let you come in the barn no more.” Crooks knows that she is always up to no good and wants to get her out before she finds out something that she should know. Curley’s wife's perspective is that Crook can't tell her what to do and she can go where she wants. This is shown on page 39 when Curley’s wife says, "You know what I can do to you if you open your trap?” Curley’s wife thinks that she has control over him and doesn't want to be told what to do. Curley’s wife likes to use her power in any way that she can. Crooks was going to be a part of Lennie and George’s dream, but when Curley’s wife shuts him down Crook doesn't believe that he should be a part of the dream and later on page 40 says, “I didn’t mean it. Jus’ foolin’...”
ReplyDeletei Agree. The two characters clash because in his time, they are both types of people who generally get told what to do (woman and black) so they clash in trying to tell each other what to do. i like the "You know what I can do to you if you open your trap?” example because it show straight up that yeah in all reality, the wife has more power in this situation.
DeleteA scene that includes different perspectives can be found on page 31 when the guys are making fun of Curly’s wife. While that is going on, Lennie is thinking about the ranch and smiling, “Lennie was still smiling with delight at the memory of the ranch.” Curly saw Lennie and thought Lennie was also making fun of his wife so he walked over to Lennie, “Curley stepped over to Lennie like a terrier. ‘What the hell you laughin’ at?” Curly thinks Lennie is laughing at his wife but really he is laughing at the thought of the ranch.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Ryan, Curley accused Lennie of making fun of his wife because he was laughing. But not at the remarks of Curley’s wife but because he was excited by the thoughts of the ranch. Because of Lennie’s disability he doesn’t really know right from wrong and that is one of the reasons why he keeps getting in trouble and is forced to flee towns with George.
DeleteI agree with Ryan. Lennie doesn't understand things like others do, so he doesn't know why Curley is mad at him.
DeleteLennie and Crooks see the ranch in different perspectives, Lennie perspective of the ranch is welcoming and he sees it as a way to earn money and edventually buy a ranch of his own and live on it with George and Candy. This is shown on page 30 when George says. “We’ll do her,” he said. “We’ll fix up that little old place an’ we’ll go live there.” He sat down again. They all sat still, all bemused by the beauty of the thing, each mind was popped into the future when this lovely thing should come about.
ReplyDeleteCrooks perspective is that he is treated unfair and wants to get out of the ranch because he is not treated the same because he is black and he is forced to sleep out with the horses. This is shown on page 36 when brooks says “I remember when I was a little kid on my old man’s chicken ranch. Had two brothers. They was always near me, always there. Used to sleep right in the same room, right in the same bed—all three. Had a strawberry patch. Had an alfalfa patch. Used to turn the chickens out in the alfalfa on a sunny morning. My brothers’d set on a fence rail an’ watch ‘em —white chickens they was.” he is remembering the good old days when he could just do stuff without being called names or be called out because of the color of his skin.

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 4 when Crooks and Lennie with Candy are arguing over the future and if the boys will actually make it with a farm. Crooks’s perspective is that Lennie, Candy, and George will never have their own place because no one has ever got that far. This is shown on page 37 when Crooks says, “You’ll talk about it a hell of a lot, but you won’t get no land. You’ll be a swamper here till they take you out in a box. Hell, I seen too many guys. Lennie here’ll quit an’ be on the road in two, three weeks. Seems like ever’ guy got land in his head.” Crooks was warning the guys about what reality is and if they'd ever get to that point. Candy's perspective is that they will make it, and they’ll be the first to do it, and the happiest. This is shown on page 37 when Candy says, “ You God damn right we’re gonna do it. George says we are. We got the money right now.” Candy was just trying to prove his point, and show that they all do have hope for this and are working towards it.

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Candy and Carlson have different perspectives on Candy's dog. Carlson’s perspective is the dog is bothersome and should be put down. His perspective is shown when he says, “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?” Candy loves his dog and has been with it forever so he has a very strong connection with the dog. Candy’s perspective is shown when he says, “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.”
ReplyDeleteI agree with Delaney because she gives details when she said about candy loving the dog and them having such a strong bond and also how he’s had it for forever. He’s had the dog since it was a pup and he herded sheep with him. So which means that they're close. ” Candy loves his dog; he has been or had it forever so they have a very very strong bond or connection. Candy’s perspective is shown when he says,”Well hell!I had him so long.Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.
DeleteI agree with Dalaney because she gives the different perspectives of both characters, and how they see that the dog needs to be put down or killed. Candy doesn't want to kill his dog so Carlson offers to do it for him.
DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 4 when Lennie and Crooks are having a disagreement on whether George, Lennie, and Candy can make money off of rabbits so they can get some land. Lennie’s perspective is that they’re going to get rabbits, and he’s going to be able to sell and take care of them. So eventually Lennie, George, and Candy can get a place of their own with the money they made from the rabbits. This is shown on pgs. 73-74 when Lennie says, “We’re gonna have rabbits an’ a berry patch.” This is later continued on pg 74 when Lennie says, “You ast George.” after Crooks has just called Lennie’s dream “nuts.” Crook’s perspective is that he doesn’t think it’s possible for them to get their own land. He says this because he has seen many people with a similar dream, of getting money through different ways, in order to leave their job and live on their own land. However he says that none of them has fulfilled that dream. This is shown on pg. 74 when Crooks says, “I seen hundreds of men come by...with the same thing in their heads...every one of ‘em got a little piece of land in his head. An’ never one of ‘em gets it.”

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter ¾ when Candy wants to keep his dog because he has known it for so long now, but Carlson just keeps going on and on about how the dog smells and how Candy should just kill it already. Carlson had said Candy about his dog “Ain't no good”. This shows characters different perspectives because Candy loves his dog and wants to keep it because the dog still has value, but for Carlson the dog is just some piece of rag that doesn't deserve to live anymore because it smells.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Emma in the part that says “Candy wants to keep his dog because he has known it for so long now” this shows that Candy has a special feeling for his dog because he's had the dog since it was a pup so that can affect his feelings.
DeleteThis is shown in the scene when Carlson wants to kill the dog but Candy feels very upset for that reason.
I agree with you Emma because in the chapter you can see how different they see this situation and how different they react to it. Carlson sees the dog as "-no good." But then Candy is obviously going to think differently due to her taking care of the pup since birth and the pup being part of her family. The difference in their emotions puts the pup in a life or death situation. When Carlson talks about wanting to kill him but Candy wants to keep the pup around.

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Slim and George were in the bunkhouse together talking about Lennie. Slim thinks that it's funny that Lennie and George travel together. This is shown on pg. 39 when slim says this, “ Funny how you an’ him string along together.” he later on adds, “it jus’ seems kinda funny a cuckoo like him and a smart little guy like you traveling together.” On the other hand George was very confused about Slim’s comment and says, “he’s dumb as hell, but he ain't crazy. An’ i ain't so bright neither, or i wouldn't be bucking’ barley for my fifty and found.”
ReplyDeleteSlim sees this situation differently then George does. For example Slim thinks that their traveling is odd and different from what others do. While George just think its normal and he defends Lennie when slims calls him a cuckoo.

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3 when Candy and Carlson are arguing about Candy's dog because Carlson wants to put him down. Candy’s perspective is to keep him alive because he can't see himself killing him. He expressed this on page 23 “Candy looked about unhappily. “No,” he said softly. “No, I couldn’t do that. I had ‘im too long.” Well Carlson's perspective is that the dog should be but down. This is shown on page 24 when Carlson says “Ain’t nothing left for him. Can’t eat, can’t see, can’t even walk without hurtin’.”.
ReplyDeleteBryce meinke
DeleteRain Meyer i agree with Carlson because its gone to the point he cannot do anything as shown on pg 24 that the dog had to slowly get up and walked slowly when they had to get the job done when the animal is living day to day in pain suffering without a vet sometimes you have to do what u fear
DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter ¾ when George found the puppy Lennie was holding. George’s perspective is that the puppy was just born and has to be with his mother to be fed and nourished. This is shown on page 22 of the PDF when George says “You get right up an’ take this pup back to the nest. He’s gotta sleep with his mother. You want to kill him? Just born last night an’ you take him out of the nest.”
ReplyDeleteLennie’s perspective was that he just wanted to cuddle with the puppy because Lennie really likes fuzzy things, this is also shown on page 33 of the PDF when Lennie says Lennie held out his hands pleadingly. “Give ‘um to me, George. I’ll take ‘um back. I didn’t mean no harm, George. Honest I didn’t. I jus’ wanted to pet ‘um a little.”
A scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when George and Slim are talking about Lennie and how he is not very bright but he is a great worker and they both say something nice about Lennie when they normally just talk about how he is not very bright on page 20 “It wasn’t nothing,” Slim repeated. “Say, you sure was right about him. Maybe he ain’t bright, but I never seen such a worker. He damn near killed his partner buckin’ barley. There ain’t nobody can keep up with him. God awmighty, I never seen such a strong guy.” George spoke proudly. “Jus’ tell Lennie what to do an’ he’ll do it if it don’t take no figuring. He can’t think of nothing to do himself, but he sure can take orders.” and this shows different perspectives because they share something other than how Lennie is not very bright.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when Carlson and Candy are in the bunk and Carlson starts complaining about Candy's dog smelling terribly. Carlson’s perspective is that the dog is old and smelly and needs to be shot. This is shown on pg.23 when Carlson says, “He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?” Carlson made multiple comments trying to convince Candy on letting him shoot the dog. While Candy’s perspective is that the dog is very special to him and that it’s not just an old dog that he had for a long time. This is shown on pg.23 when Candy responds, “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.” He said proudly, “You wouldn’t think it to look at him now, but he was the best damn sheep dog I ever seen.”
ReplyDeleteHnueda Xiong I agree with your thoughts on how Carlson and Candy’s perspectives differ because Carlson doesn't know the dog very well and wasn't there when the dog was growing and doesn't really know or have a connection with the pup but Candy does and was there for the dog throughout its life this is shown when Candy says “No,” he said softly. “No, I couldn’t do that. I had ‘im too long.”

DeleteA scene that has different perspectives of characters is found in chapter 3 when candy and Carlson have different perspectives on the dog (candy’s dog). Carlson’s perspective is the dog and how it should be put down. His perspective is shown when he says”He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain't good to you, Candy. An’ he ain't no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?” Candy loves his dog he has been or had it forever so they have a very very strong bond or connection. Candy’s perspective is shown when he says,”Well hell!I had him so long.Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Yasmeen because she gives the different perspectives on both the characters candy doesn't want to put down the dog but Carlson gives reasons why he should.
DeleteA scene that shows two different perspectives is when George and Lennie are down at a pond with a couple of guys on page 21.
ReplyDeleteGeorge's perspective is to pull a prank on Lennie and tells him to jump into a pond but when he can't swim he urgently helps Lennie out.
Lennie's perspective is George just told him too jump into a pond and when he can't swim he's nice friend saves him
I agree with Unknown because this shows the friendship and the confidence they have on each other that they are willing to pull pranks on each other just to have some fun.
DeleteThis can also be shown when they ask Lennie a question but George talks for him because he told Lennie not to say a single word and this shows that no matter what they do they still have that feeling of friends in them.

ReplyDeleteA scene that shows two different perspectives is when George and Lennie are down at a pond with a couple of guys from the farm on page 21 and 22.
ReplyDeleteGeorge's perspective is to pull a prank on Lennie and tells him to jump into a pond but when he can't swim he trys to helps Lennie out and he felt bad after.
But for Lennie he see’s it as George just told him too jump into a pond and when he can't swim he's nice friend saves him and he doesn’t see that george was just trying to be funny.
- One such scene where characters are having a different perspective can be seen in the early parts of chapter four. The scene itself is when Lennie and Candy are explaining to Crooks that what George has planned isn’t just some unachievable dream, but instead has a fair chance of manifesting. “You God damn right we’re gonna do it. George says we are. We got the money right now.” (...) “Jesus, I seen it happen too many times. I seen too many guys with land in their head. They never get none under their hand.” The problem here is that Crooks is so used to guys who just dream, and are never able to manifest what they want. But both Candy and Lennie realize that George is really chasing the dream he wants, and is trying to make it happen. That’s the difference in view which shows up in the fourth chapter.

ReplyDeleteCarlson and Candy have different perspectives of how they see Candy's dog. Carlson's perspective is that the dog smells bad and is useless because of the dog's age “And he stinks to beat hell. Tell you what. I’ll shoot him for you. Then it won’t be you that does it” . Candy disagrees with Carlson. Candy doesn't know what he wants to do with his dog “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him”. To Carlson this dog is meaningless but to Candy this dog means lots
ReplyDeleteRaul Arroyo
DeleteI agree with you on how they both have different perspectives on candy
I think that calson just wants candy's dog out of the way and says he is useless because he is old and smells.
Like in page 23 when Carlson says “God almighty, that dog stinks. Get him outta here, Candy! I don’t know anything that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get him out”

DeleteA scene that contrasts character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Candy and Carlson have different perspectives on Candy's dog. Carlson wants Candy to put his dog down On example where this is shown is when Carlson says “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy.” Carlson is implying that the dog serves no good purpose to candy and that he should put the dog down. Candy thinks otherwise because he loves the dog because he’s had him since he was pup.

DeleteA scene that includes diffrently character perspectives can be found in chapter ¾ when Lennie and crooks are in his room.

This is on page 34 when Lennie says “Lennie gulped and his smile grew more fawning. “I ain’t doing nothing,” he said. “Just come to look at my puppy. Crooks perspective is since he a “negro” he has to stay in a sepreate bunk house and hes not used to having people visit him. This is shown on page 35 when crooks says “’Cause I’m black.

ReplyDeletewanted in the bunk house, and you ain’t wanted in my room.”
Bryce Meinke, I agree with you that Lennie and Crooks have differing perspectives. Lennie is always kind of clueless and in this situation he does not think there is anything wrong with going into Crooks room. While Crooks has accepted the situation and knows how he can not go in everyone else's room so they can not go in his. Another example of Lennie's perspective on the situation can be seen on page 34 when Lennie states, “Nothing—I seen your light. I thought I could jus’ come in an’ set.” Lennie is just being friendly and just wants to talk with someone and get to see his pup. On the other hand another example of Crooks perspective can also be seen on page 34 when Crooks states, “Well, I got a right to have a light. You go on get outa my room. I ain’t wanted in the bunk house, and you ain’t wanted in my room.” The moment Crooks went out into the real world he realized that he would be treated differently because of his skin color. By now he knows how everything goes and how it should go. Crooks does realize that Lennie does not really understand this and eventually lets him sit down for a little bit.

DeleteA scene that includes different perspectives is in chapter 3 when Curley and Lennie get into a fight. Curleys perspective is that Lenni is laughing at the thing Carlson said about Curley. But Lennie is just laughing at a memory he had of the ranch. This is shown on page 31 when the author writes, “Carlson laughed. “You God damn punk,” he said. “You tried to throw a scare into Slim, an’ you couldn’t make it stick. Slim throwed a scare into you. You’re yella as a frog belly. I don’t care if you’re the best welter in the country. You come for me, an’ I’ll kick your God damn head off.” Candy joined the attack with joy. “Glove fulla vaseline,” he said disgustedly. Curley glared at him. His eyes slipped on past and lighted on Lennie; and Lennie was still smiling with delight at the memory of the ranch. Curley stepped over to Lennie like a terrier. “What the hell you laughin’ at?” Lennie looked blankly at him. “Huh?”

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when Lennie and Crook are talking in Crooks' little room. We see it when Lennie and Crook are talking. Lennie sees Crook as just another one of the boys and crook sees himself as a useless stable boy. Lennie asked, “How long you think it’ll be before them pups will be old enough to pet?” Crooks laughed again. “A guy can talk to you an’ be sure you won’t go blabbin’. Couple of weeks' anthem pups will be alright. George knows what he’s about. Jus’ talks, an’ you don’t understand nothing.” He leaned forward excitedly. “This is just a nigger talkin’, an’ a busted-back nigger. So it doesn't mean nothing, see? “ Although Lenni talks to him like normal, Crook feels like he needs to reiterate that he's not normal here, and these two opinions are a very stark contrast.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Arianna because it’s shown in the story that Crook has to isolate himself because if he’s around the others then he will be discriminated against because he is a black man. Lennie doesn’t see what’s wrong with that so he feels happy being around just anyone.

You got no rights messing around in here at all. Now you jus’ get out, an’ get out quick. If you don’t, I’m gonna ask the boss not to ever let you come in the barn no more.” Crooks knows that she is always up tobad stuff and wants to get her out before she finds out something that she should know. Curley’s wife's perspective is that Crook can't tell her what to do and she can go wherever she likes. This is shown on page 39 when Curley’s wife says, "You know what I can do to you if you open your trap?” Curley’s wife thinks that she has control over him and doesn't want to be told what to do.

ReplyDeleteLennie and Candy can't keep secrets. For Lennie this is proven when he tells Crooks about the ranch. This is shown on pg 34. “The rabbits we’re gonna get, and I get to tend ‘em, cut grass an’ give ‘em water, an’ like that.” “Jus’ nuts,” said Crooks.” For Candy this is proven when he tells Lennie how they’re going to make money off the rabbits and Crooks overhears. This is shown on pg 37. “Lennie leaned toward the old swamper. “About them rabbits,” he insisted. Candy smiled. “I got it figured out. We can make some money on them rabbits if we go about it right.” “But I get to tend ‘em,” Lennie broke in. “George says I get to tend ‘em. He promised.” Crooks interrupted brutally. “You guys is just kiddin’ yourself. You’ll talk about it a hell of a lot, but you won’t get no land. You’ll be a swamper here till they take you out in a box. Hell, I seen too many guys. Lennie here’ll quit an’ be on the road in two, three weeks. Seems like ever’ guy got land in his head.”

ReplyDeleteCurley begins to get in a fight with Lennie. Lennie’s perspective is that he doesn’t want to fight Curley because he just simply doesn’t want to. This is shown on pg 63 when he says “Make ’um let me alone.” As you can see George doesn’t want to fight because he calls for help. Curley’s perspective is that he thinks Lennie is laughing at him because he is getting insulted. So then he decides he wants to fight Lennie. This is shown on pg 62 when the author writes “his eyes slipped on past and lighted on Lennie.” Shortly after Curley says, “What the hell you laughin’ at?” This shows he thought Lennie was laughing at him so he wanted to battle him.
ReplyDeletei cant really tell what two characters your saying have different perspectives but i disagree. i this moment, George wants to fight Curley.

If you was to take him out and shoot him right in the back of the head—” he leaned over and pointed, “—right there, why he’d never know what hit him.” and he also states “That stink hangs around even after he’s gone.” Candy’s perspective is that he loves his dog and doesn't want to put him down.

ReplyDeleteOne example of differing perspective is on page 23 of chapter 3 where Candy and Carlson’s perspectives on Candy’s old dog are drastically different.

I had 'im too long.” Carlson's perspective is the dog is good for nothing and I should kill it. This is shown on page 49 when Carlson says “Got no teeth, He said, He's all stiff with rheumatism. He ain't no good to you, candy. An’ he ain't no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?”

DeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3 when Candy shows George and Lennie their bunks. When George finds the yellow can. George’s perspective is that someone filthy lived there. This is shown on pg. 10 when George says, “Then how come he got grayback?” Candy’s perspective is that someone clean stayed there. This is shown on pg. 10-11 when Candy says, “...—was the kind of guy that would put that stuff around even if there wasn’t no bugs—just to make sure, see?”. These two characters are seeing things differently because George is new to the place, and Candy was already there.

DeleteCarlson and Candy have way different perspectives on how they see the dog in the story, Candy’s old dog. Carlson sees the dog as an old stinky dog that takes up space and is a waste of food; to Carlson the dog is just a nuisance. His perspective is shown on page 23 of the PDF when he says, “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?” Candy’s perspective is different on the dog because it is his own dog that he has been around and had since it was a puppy, this time has created a bond between him and the dog. This is further shown on page 23 of the PDF where the author writes “He reached over and patted the ancient dog” Candy apologized saying “I been around him so much I never notice how he stinks.” This shows how candy is unsure about how his old dog stinks but he does know that it's getting old. He has a different perspective on the dog because he loves the dog, hes had it since a puppy and he doesn’t know that it stinks.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 / 4 when Carlson and Candy are debating on whether to shoot Candy’s dog or not. Candy’s perspective is that he has had this dog sense he was a pup this example can be found on page 23. “ “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.” He said proudly, “You wouldn’t think it to look at him now, but he was the best damn sheep dog I ever seen”. Candy is trying to prove a point to Carlson that even though Candy’s dog is old, but he had him sense he was a pup and the dog is good at what he does.
ReplyDeleteCarlon’s perspective is that the dog smells he’s old he can’t see and the dog is suffering. So he thinks that Candy is doing a bad thing by keeping this dog alive. An example of this can be found on page 23, “Look, Candy. This ol’ dog jus’ suffers hisself all the time. If you was to take him out and shoot him right in the back of the head—” he leaned over and pointed”. In this quote Carlson states his opinion and tries to pursue Candy and does.
On page 22 George and Slim are talking to each other about an incident Lennie had with a girl where he supposedly raped her but the girl was over exaggerating to people in her town and the people hunted for Lennie so they had to leave. Both Slim and George think that Lennie didn’t do anything wrong. On page 22, “ he just wanted to touch her red dress,” George said. “He aint mean,” said Slim. Well Lennie on the other doesn’t know what he did because he always just wants to touch something like the puppies and in this case the red dress on the girl.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 on page 65 when Lennie and Curley get into a fight. George is telling Lennie after the fight and after Lennie crushes Curley's hand that it wasn't lennies fault. But Lennie is freaking out because he hurt another human and he didn't want to and he's blaming himself for the fight and what he did and saying it's his fault and is very upset over it. This is shown when George said, “ It aint your fault, you don't need to be scairt no more. You did what I told you. Maybe you better go in the washroom an clean up your face.'' George is saying and explaining to Lennie right now that what just happened isn't his fault because George told him to do that and he listened and he did good and none of it was his fault. But Lennie can't believe that because he hurt someone else and is saying, “ I didn't want no trouble. George? Can I still tend the rabbits george? I didn't mean no harm george.`` Lennie is upset and believes he's in trouble and it's his fault because he is trying to tell George he didn't want no trouble and didn't mean no harm. He also thinks that he won't be able to tend the rabbits because he's in trouble and believes it's his fault, but George says yes to Lennie and reassures him that it wasn't his fault and he's not in trouble. George tells Lennie yes he can still tend the rabbits because George's perspective is that it wasn't lennies fault, and Lennie was scared that he couldn't tend the rabbits because it was his fault and he's in trouble. This is where two characters' perspectives are different in chapter 3 page 65.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when Candy and Carlson are arguing about putting Candy’s dog down. Candy’s perspective is that his dog is absolutely fine and there is no need to put it down. This is shown on page 23 of the PDF when Candy says, “No, I couldn’t do that. I had ‘im too long.” Carlson’s perspective is that the dog should be put down. As shown on page 23 of the PDF when Carlson says, “Got no teeth,” he said. “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?”
ReplyDeleteA scene with different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Carlson and the old man candy are arguing about candy's dog because he stinks. Carlson thinks he a dumb old no teeth stinky dog because Carlson thinks the dog should die. This is shown on page 23 when carlson wants to kill the dog but candy doesn't because the dog has been with him since he was a puppy. Candys perspective is he had the dog since he was a little puppy he didn't know the dog had smell because he was so used to him and didn't smell him.

ReplyDeleteWhen George and Lennie are fighting over Slim’s dogs, George makes it known that the reason he won’t let Lennie have a puppy is because the puppy won’t live if it’s separated from its mother too early. We see this on pg. 22 George handed the pup to him. “Awright. You get him back there quick, and don’t you take him out no more. You’ll kill him, the first thing you know.” Lennie fairly scuttled out of the room. Slim had not moved. His calm eyes followed Lennie out the door. “Jesus,” he said. “He’s jus’ like a kid, ain’t he?” “Sure he’s jes’ like a kid. There ain’t no more harm in him than a kid neither, except he’s so strong. I bet he won’t come in here to sleep tonight. He’d sleep right alongside that box in the barn. Well—let ‘im. He ain’t doin’ no harm out there.” This tells us that George cares about the well-being of Lennie but he also cares about Lennie’s feelings too. This quote gives us a great persective of George’s view.
A scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when lennie and George are in the bunks and lennie brings in the pup. Lennie's perspective is that it's ok to bring the pup into the bunks and it's ok for the pup not to have its mom. This can be found on page 42 of the book when Lennie said “what pup,George? I ain't got no pup.” George's perspective is that Lennie has killed rats by petting them and the pup needs its mom so he doesn't want Lennie having the pup outside of the nest. This is shown on page 43 when George says “you get right up an’ take this pup back to the nest. He's gotta sleep with his mother.”
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3/4 when innocent Lennie and Curley are in the same room. Lennie's perspective is he is happy about his future on the farm. This is shown on page 31 when the author says, Lennie was still smiling with delight at the memory of the ranch. But Curley didnt think that's what Lennie was thinking. Curley's perspective is that Lennie is laughing at him. This is shown on pg 31 when Curley says Curley stepped over to Lennie like a terrier. “What the hell you laughin’ at?”.
ReplyDeleteGeorge and Candy are in the bunk house discussing how they are going to get there own little place by all shipping in money.
ReplyDeleteGeorge perspective is planning it out and how they are getting the money together. This is shown on pg. 30 when George says George spat on the floor disgustedly. “We got ten bucks between us.” Then he said thoughtfully, “Look, if me an’ Lennie work a month an’ don’t spen’ nothing, we’ll have a hunderd bucks. That’d be four fifty. I bet we could swing her for that. Then you an’ Lennie could go get her started an’ I’d get a job an’ make up the res’, an’ you could sell eggs an’ stuff like that.”
Candy’s perspective is why he wants to leave and what he is going to help with on the little place. This is shown on pg. 30 when Candy says, An’ they give me two hunderd an’ fifty dollars ‘cause I los’ my hand. An’ I got fifty more saved up right in the bank, right now. Tha’s three hunderd, and I got fifty more comin’ the end a the month. Tell you what—” He leaned forward eagerly. “S’pose I went in with you guys. Tha’s three hunderd an’ fifty bucks I’d put in. I ain’t much good, but I could cook and tend the chickens and hoe the garden some. How’d that be?”
“I’d make a will an’ leave my share to you guys in case I kick off, ‘cause I ain’t got no relatives nor nothing.
A scene that includes different character perspectives are in chapter three with the entire dog scene. It was Candy's dog, and he had that dog since it was a puppy, so we know that candy has an attachment to the dog, and knowing what we know from chapter four, I think that that dog was one of the very few things if not the only thing that was stable in Candy’s life, and with that dog being gone not only did Candy lose an animal he loved, but something that made him feel at home like nothing ever could and this can be shown in chapter three when he says “The old man squirmed uncomfortably. “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.” He said proudly, “You wouldn’t think it to look at him now, but he was the best damn sheep dog I ever seen.” said on page 23 of the PDF. On the other hand though I don’t believe Carlson understands how Candy felt, all Carlson really saw within that dog was something that was stinking up the bunker, and in Carlsons defense I do think that that dog was in a lot of suffering, though I do think that Carlson shouldn’t have been the one to shoot the dog, as it was Candy's dog and I think that only made Candy’s situation worse. Carlson's perspective can be shown on page 23 of the PDF when he says “Well, I can’t stand him in here,” said Carlson. “That stink hangs around even after he’s gone.” He walked over with his heavy-legged stride and looked down at the dog. “Got no teeth,” he said. “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Whyn't you shoot him, Candy?”

ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 when Lennie and George when Lennie gets in a fight with curly and at first Lennie didnt do anything but then George tells him to fight back and Lennie does and breaks Curley's hand. George's perspective in this is that he thinks that Lennie didnt do anything bad. But Lennie does think he did something bad. For example on page 35 when george says “It aint your fault, you don't need to be scarit no more. You done jus’ what i tol’ you to.”
ReplyDeleteThis 2 characters have different perspective because Lennie thinks he is in trouble and George thinks he did nothing wrong.
George and Slim are both closer to each other now because of the job that he is in. George’s perspective towards Lennie is kept to himself until he “confesses” to slim of what he really feels. This is shown on page 21 when the narrator says what George sounds like “George’s voice was taking on the tone of confession. “Tell you what made me stop that.” because it sounds it would be really important to understand that George feels how he trusts Slim way more than before. Slim’s perspective is closer to what George see since he now knows who Lennie really is. This is shown on page 22 when Slim says “Slim sat in silence for a moment. “Didn’t hurt the girl none, huh?” he asked finally. “Hell, no. He just scared her. I’d be scared too if he grabbed me. But he never hurt her. He jus’ wanted to touch that red dress, like he wants to pet them pups all the time.” “He ain’t mean,” said Slim. “I can tell a mean guy a mile off.”” this helped Slim see what George has seen about Lennie this whole time.
ReplyDeleteA scene in the book, Mice and Men where there are two different character perspectives can be found on pg.39 of the PDF, when Crooks and Curley’s wife are arguing about her being in his room. His perspective is shown when Crook says, “You got no rights comin’ in a colored man’s room. You got no rights messing around in here at all. Now you jus’ get out, an’ get out quick. If you don’t, I’m gonna ast the boss not to ever let you come in the barn no more.” Crook’s perspective is that she should not be in his room. Curley’s wife's perspective is that Crook can't tell her what to do and she can go where she wants. This illustrated on page 39 when Curley’s wife says, "You know what I can do to you if you open your trap?” Curley’s wife thinks that she has all this control over him and doesn't want to be told what to do. Curley’s wife likes to use her power in any way that she can. Crooks was going to be a part of Lennie and George’s dream, but when Curley’s wife shuts him down and convinces him to change his mind Crook doesn't believe that he should be a part of the dream and later on page 40 says, “I didn’t mean it. Jus’ foolin’...”
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3 when Carlson is arguing with Candy about his dog. Carlson thinks that the dog is old and miserable. He believes that keeping the dog alive is only hurting it and that it should be shot. This is shown on pg. 23 when Carlson says, “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?” On the contrasting side, Candy’s perspective is that he cares too much about his dog and doesn't want him to be shot because he is emotionally attached to the dog. This is shown on pg. 23 when Candy says, “No, I couldn’t do that. I had ‘im too long.”
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter ¾ when Carlson and Candy argue about Candy’s old, smelly dog being in the bunkhouse.
ReplyDeleteCarlson’s perspective is that he doesn’t like how Candy keeps such a smelly dog in the bunkhouse and he wants the dog out because it stinks so bad. This is shown on pg. 23 when Carlson says, “God awmighty, that dog stinks. Get him outa here, Candy! I don’t know nothing that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get him out.”
Candy’s perspective is that he doesn’t really mind the smell of his dog because he’s been with the dog for so long and it just doesn’t bother him and he doesn’t want to get rid of the dog because they did so many things together from it being a puppy till however old it is. This is shown on pg. 23 when Carlson says, “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.” He said proudly, “You wouldn’t think it to look at him now, but he was the best damn sheep dog I ever seen.”
A scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3 during the whole dog scene. In this scene Candy and Carlson have two different perspectives and opinions about Candy’s old dog.
ReplyDeleteCandy’s perspective is that he’s had this dog since he was a puppy, and has grown very much attached to the dog. I think the dog was one of the only stable things in Candy's life Because not only will he lose his dog but a big part of his life. This can be shown in chapter 3 on page 23 “The old man squirmed uncomfortably. “Well—hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him.” He said proudly, “You wouldn’t think it to look at him now, but he was the best damn sheep dog I ever seen.” This goes into Carlson's perspective on things. Carlson saw the old dog as a nuisance, for example the dog was stinking up the bunker which led to Carlson thinking the dog was no good anymore and it should just get put out of its misery. This can be shown on page 23 when he says “Well, I can’t stand him in here,” said Carlson. “That stink hangs around even after he’s gone.” He walked over with his heavy-legged stride and looked down at the dog. “Got no teeth,” he said. “He’s all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. An’ he ain’t no good to himself. Whyn't you shoot him, Candy?”.
A scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in chapter 3, pg 23 of the text where Carlson says, “God awmighty, that dog stinks. Get him outa here, Candy! I don’t know nothing that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get him out.” To which Candy replies with, “I been around him so much I never notice how he stinks.” Candy doesn't see it how Carlson does because he’s been around the dog so much he’s adapted to the smell and doesn't even notice it at this point, whereas Carlson thinks it's the worst thing he's ever smelt. Carlson just wants the smell and the dog gone so he brings up the idea of killing the dog. He says, “Look, Candy. This ol’ dog jus’ suffers hisself all the time. If you was to take him out and shoot him right in the back of the head—” he leaned over and pointed, “—right there, why he’d never know what hit him.” To which Candy responds, “No,” he said softly. “No, I couldn’t do that. I had ‘im too long.” Carlson wants to kill the dog because he knows it's for the best and he's just suffering but Candys bond with the dog is making it hard for him to let go.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when Carlson and Candy are arguing about candy dog of whether to kill candy dog.”Candy what are you doing with that dog he stinks”.Then after Carlson said that candy and him had a argument of putting the dog down.The reason that this part of the book includes different perspectives is because both character have different views of what is going on in the scene.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3 when George and Lennie have different perspectives. This is shown when George tells Lennie to jump in the water even though he did not mean it and George was joking around, but Lennie still jumped in.
ReplyDeleteLennie's perspective is to do anything that George tells him. This is shown on page 40 when it says “I turns to Lennie and says, ‘Jump in.’ An’ he jumps. Couldn’t swim a stroke. He damn near drowned before we could get him. An’ he was so damn nice to me for pullin’ him out.” This shows that Lennie looks up to George and wants to be like him. This is shown because George was joking around, but Lennie still jumped in even though he cant swim.
George perspective is not everything he tells Lennie he means. This is shown on page 40 when it states “I turns to Lennie and says, ‘Jump in.’ An’ he jumps. Couldn’t swim a stroke. He damn near drowned before we could get him. An’ he was so damn nice to me for pullin’ him out.” This shows that George is really important to Lennie because everything George tells Lennie he trusts him and does it.
A scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3/4 when Candy and Carlson are in the bunk house and candy’s dog stinks.
ReplyDeleteCandy’s perspective is that he really doesn’t notice the smell because he’s used to it. This is shown on pg.23 when Candy says, “ Candy threw his legs off his bunk. He scratched the white stubble whiskers on his cheek nervously. “I’m so used to him,” he said softly. “I had him from a pup.”
Carlson’s perspective is that candy’s dog is really old and stinky and Carlson wants to put him out of his misery. This is shown on pg.23 when Carlson says, Carlson said, “The way I’d shoot him, he wouldn’t feel nothing. I’d put the gun right there.” He pointed with his toe. Right back of the head. He wouldn’t even quiver”.
A scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3-4 when Candy decides to keep his old dog. He has known this dog since it was just a little pup. The second character Carlson keeps one questioning Candy about him still having that dog because of how old and stinky it is. Then Carlson said something disturbing and wrong that made me see his perspective. He said “If you was to take him out and shoot him right in the back of the head”, then he leaned on over closer and pointed , “right there, why he’d never know what hit him”. This shows the two different perspectives because Carlson thinks the dog is old, stinky, and just not doing good anymore. On the other side of things the dog is basically his best friend and has been with him since the dogs life had begun basically. The dog has a meaning to Candy as it does not towards Carlson.
ReplyDeleteA scene that includes different character perspectives can be found in Chapter 3 when Candy and Carlson are arguing about keeping Candy’s dog or getting rid of it. Candy’s perspective is keeping the dog. This is shown on pg. 23 when Candy says, “ I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup.” Candy doesn't want to get rid of the dog because it means something to him. Carlson has a different perspective about the dog. He wants to get rid of it. This is shown on pg. 23 when Carlson says, “And he stinks to beat hell. Tell you what. I’ll shoot him for you.” This shows that Carlson doesn't want the dog around.

ReplyDeleteA scene that has different perspective is found in chapter 4, where Crooks has his own room in the barn and likes to keep his distance from others because when he was little he dad would tell him he's the only black kid for miles. When Lennie came into the barn Crooks told him to stay in the door way and no further but of course Lennie didn't listen and sat down in the room with Crooks, even though Crooks was irritated with Lennie he still had a conversation with him and told him why he keeps his distance from the others. After awhile Crooks and Lennie became friends because Crooks would actually laugh and smile with Lennie.
