'In what ways do Leonardo and Bazarov act as catalysts inchanging family structure in the texts Blood Wedding and Fathers and Sons?\r'

'In this essay, I lead be focussing on the faces of da Vinci and Bazarov, in their respective schoolbooks, and how they act as catalysts in ever-changing family structure, so that by the shut mint of the schoolbook, the family unit is different from what it was in the beginning. I allow for also analyse their characters and examine their force on the plots of the two school textual matterual matters, and their role in plot development. In cross, I will analyse the characters words, and the tone of vowelise in which they speak; this will champion in analysing their specific character traits.\r\nThis analysis will help me in understanding their impact on character and plot development, which leads to them acting as catalysts in changing their respective family structures. It should be noned that while the text Fathers and Sons features many families that argon fundamental to the plot, I will be specifically touch sensationing at Bazarovs impact on Arcadys family; as w ell as the impact on his own family. In the text argument Wedding, I will be looking at da Vincis impact on his family and on the Bridegrooms family.\r\nIn the text Fathers and Sons, when Nicholas is waiting for Arcady, we square up him as a genuinely happy person as he thirstily anticipates the arrival of his son. However, when Arcady introduces Bazarov, we nonice a channel in Nicholass character. He appears to be withdrawn, and he does not dialogue as openly with Arcady as he would normally. there is one incident when Bazarov offers Arcady a cigar, Arcady brings it and when he lights it, Nicholas turns his encephalon a manner. This foreshadows that the introduction of Bazarov, to the Kisranov family, will ca purpose a cattle ranch between Nicholas and Arcady.\r\nSimilarly in the text origin Wedding, the text opens with a conversation between sustain and Bridegroom. The conversation leads to the bailiwick of knives that involves the Felix family of which da Vinci is a member. The topic of knives foreshadows the violence and bloodshed that is to arise. The bear on of the name da Vinci Felix leads to a small dispute between the amaze and the Bridegroom. Though the dispute is small, it hints of the trouble that da Vinci is presumable to cause.\r\nIn the text Fathers and Sons, when Bazarov has left with Arcady to go review up, Paul talks to Nicholas about Bazarov. We get the judgement that Paul does not like Bazarov genuinely much. pull down though it may not be Bazarovs respite directly, we backside see that his front end causes some stress in the family; it causes some change in Pauls mood. As we can see from the following quotation, Paul does not focus on welcoming Arcady, but he focuses on criticizing Bazarov.\r\nâ€Å"Is he staying with us?”… â€Å"That hairy shaft?” ”\r\nThe use of the words â€Å"Hairy creature” ar spoken with a tone of contempt thus creating an overall sense of tension and ill will.\r\nIn the text Blood Wedding tone is also important for example when the Neighbour and find are talking, the Mother finds out that the Bride had a relationship with da Vinci. At the mention of the name Felix, the mother flares up in anger. Its not da Vincis fault that he is a Felix but the occurrence that he is a Felix causes great anger in the Mother and a drastic change in her mood. The mother does not ‘welcome the labor union with complete ack at one timeledge and affection, but instead with hostility and animosity.\r\nIn the text Blood Wedding there is a ingredient where Leonardo, Wife and Mother-in-law are having a conversation. In this particular conversation the girl comes in and tells them what the Bridegroom is buying for the Bride. Leonardo is very rude and unpleasant.\r\nâ€Å"What do we negociate”\r\nâ€Å"Did I ask for your opinion?\r\nâ€Å"Leave me merely”\r\nâ€Å"Why cant you honest shut up?”\r\nThese are four of his lines in that particular scene. As we can see his words are very harsh, and he employs a very defensive tone, by the use of questions. He ignores his wifes pleas and just storms out of the house without a word to where he is going. It seems that Leonardo does not actually care about his family at all. This indicates that Leonardos family is breaking down; we can see abrasive feelings between Leonardo and mother-in-law.\r\nHowever, change is not always negative. In the text Fathers and Sons, Bazarov changes Arcadys family structure in a positive way. Bazarov persuades Arcady to accept an invitation meant for Nicholas. Arcady accepted and he went with Bazarov into town. While the two were having luncheon at Eudoxia Kukshins residence, she mentioned a name; Madame Odintzov. Bazarov was interested in Madame Odintzov, as she was described as very fascinating; and Sitnikov said that he would introduce Bazarov and Arcady to Madame Odintzov. It is at Madame Odintzovs abidance where Arcady met Katya, whom he ends up marrying.\r\nâ€Å"…it was noticeable that Nicholas Petrovich had already occasion devotedly attached to her.”\r\nWe can see that Katya has ‘fitted-in with the Petrovich family. So we can therefore say that Bazarov is indirectly liable for Arcadys marriage to Katya, hence changing Arcadys family.\r\nIn the text Blood Wedding; afterwards the bride and bridegroom chip in left for the wedding, only Leonardo and his wife remain. They waste a conversation that depicts distance between Leonardo his wife. Wife pauperizations to go to the church by pusher and Leonardo wants to go by horse. They have a short argument that is clearly symbolic of the unhappy, libertine marriage between the two of them.\r\nâ€Å"WIFE: And I have no intention of going to a wedding without my husband. I cant hit much much(prenominal) of this.\r\nLEORNADO: That makes two of us.\r\nWIFE: Why do you look at me like that? As though you had a dagger in each eye.â €\r\nThe wife says that she cant take much more than of this, this signifying the marriage. Why cant she take more of her marriage? It is because of Leonardo. He has not been shown to be a very attentive husband, as depicted by his choice of words. The wife cant take much more of the marriage and Leonardo replies by saying that he feels the same. We would expect the husband in a marriage to counter the wife when she feels this way, however Leonardo just agrees with his wife. The fact that he cant take much more of the marriage shows that he wants to break free of the bonds of marriage. This is an importation of things to come later on in the text.\r\nLeonardo is implying that he wants a divorce or another(prenominal) wife, and by doing so he is proceeding to change his family structure. The metaphor used by the Wife (dagger in each eye) goes only to emphasise the distance and hostility felt by Wife from Leonardo as well as foreshadowing the violent demonstration of the play. Leonardo is still in love with Bride, and the wife is all that stands between him and the Bride. Thus he looks at the Wife in such a way that she might leave him alone. At the end of the text, Leonardo does achieve what he wanted; independence to do as he pleases without worrying about the rules of society. However, this freedom came at a great price to Leonardo †his demeanor. And it is through his terminal that he changed his family structure.\r\nSimilarly in the text Fathers and Sons, Bazarovs death inadvertently changes his own family structure. subsequently his first visit home, he leaves too in brief; we see this has an impact on his parents, they are saddened and depressed. Bazarovs death finished the change; he was the centre of their life and now he is gone; it is no time-consuming a family, just a husband and wife. His parents as shown when Arcady and Bazarov first visit Bazarovs home were once very lively and full of energy, and very excited and joyful. However , after his death (towards the end of the last paragraph of the text), we see Bazarovs parents as being very quiet and withdrawn. They no longer have that motivation (their son) to live. All they want to do is linger by his grave reminiscing over the memories they have of him as is shown by the quote:\r\nâ€Å"… unable(p) to tear themselves away from this spot where they feel themselves so close to their son and their memories of him…”\r\nThe use of hyperbole goes to show the extreme love that Bazarovs parents had for him and the extent to which their lives have changed now that he is gone.\r\nSo in conclusion, we see that Leonardo and Bazarov do act as catalysts in changing family structure in their respective texts. Although they cannot strictly be called catalysts because they do not remain unchanged; their presence in the respective texts does have an impact on the characters, as well as the plot.\r\n'
