Introduction
There are various humanity features that tend to lay emphasis on arts through the expression of cultural and personal values, creating an assessment of the relationship that exists between humanities and the significant values, objects and events as reflected in history, visual arts, literature, film and theatre.
Part 1: Perception Key Dylan Thomas
In the Poem “DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT” the sound that appeals most to the poem is that of high emotion. Considering the use of “rage” and “age” and “do” and “go,” the sounds of consonance of g at the beginning and o at the end it brings the user to an emotional pain.
The poem is about a son who is by his father’s death bed and is urging him not to give in to death. It is in the night and the son goes back to the better days his father had. He urges him to bless him before he dies. The father is brought out to be very successful in the time he lived and worth not forgetting as brought out by the son. The son loves his father very much and finds it hard to live without him.
The aspect of repetition is used to show the pain the son is in of the dying of his once so prosperous father. The repetition is used to propel his father to fight off the death that seems to take a tool on him. Its effect on the poem is the impact of painful emotion and sympathy. As seen in the use of “Rage, rage against the dying of the light” and “Do not go gentle into that good night.”
Yes I have, the pain the son feels is brought clearly of how much the son loved the father and how much he will miss his presence. Fathers are considered the role model of every son and in the event such a bright dies it lives the son angry and suffering from pain that results to not knowing what to do next.
Part 2
The still from Casablanca is a film that brings forth the frame of powerful photography; the manner in which the shadows fall in Rick’s place (Martin, F. D., & Jacobus, L. A., 2011). It is through his that led to it being regarded as the best films of all times. It is this still frame, with the components of the room in shadow that is keenly structured to create a regulated reaction from the viewer. In the film, the director picks on the shots and imaginations to connect the shots so as to create emotional reaction that are evoked from the audience as in the drama. Similarly, the integration of sound, dialogue and music as well as the objects in motion of the film helps to involve the participation of the audience as in drama. Pictorialist’s lighting of the frame, similar to painting displayed a sharp and well directed photo. This was seen in Alfred’s Paula Edward’s The Pond-Moonlight. The photographs made by Pictorialist were similar to paintings in the emotions that were evoked based on the sentimental.
The contrast that exists is that the film tends to be especially rigid and longer when compared to drama. In photography, the camera was not able to create the colors that made Delaroche’s painting quite powerful. Screen drama and live theatre contrast in that; the screen drama involves moving image while the live theatre, otherwise actions is preeminent, this is according to Federico Fellini’s 81/2 (1963). Also in theatre arts our participation tends to be unaided hence there is no increase in our dramatic vision while in films there is aided vision that elevates our dramatic vision in addition to hindering any irrelevance to the film.
