Comments on Tj's work
In my opinion I believe that Tj did a good job in his work on the
section of his book. The space for improvement that I can see is that Tj needs
to get more in depth in detail with his work
Response to Tj's questions
What do the characters in The Hunchback of
Notre Dame symbolize?
I think the characters in the Hunchback of
Notre dame symbolize people in our everyday society. I see this because many of
the related themes and issues that occurred in the time period of the hunhback
of notre dame still occur now such as acts of obsession where some people get
so obsessed over others they may even lose control and kill someone just to
prove their point and I also believe that the characters symbolize an
individual perspective on life according to each person because it seems to
show that each character has a specific role to either help or step on someone
else just to achieve their goals.
What is the theme of The Hunchback of Notre Dame?
The main theme portrayed in the Hunchback of Notre dame is
obsession because of the proofs shown of how obsession can drive someone into
killing another person and maybe go even as far as to kill multiple people. Obsession
brought Frollo to kill the Captain in which Esmeralda was in love with.
Comments on Frank's Work
I think that Frank did a good job in his part of the book with the
in depth questions and the information given in his individual blog topics. The
only thing I have to say about Frank’s work is that the work was not detailed enough.
Response to Frank's questions
5. Throughout the
novel how is the theme of obsession portrayed.
Throughout the
novel the theme of obsession is portrayed strongly because of the fact of the
strong obsession between Frollo and Esmeralda. In which Frollo is madly
obsessed with Esmeralda to a point in which Frollo ends up murdering the
captain just so that Esmeralda’s lover will not be in the way between Frollo
and Esmeralda.
4. What is the
main literary device in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
I think the main
literary device in the Hunchback of Notre dame is imagery because I feel that
throughout the book the author of this story has been teaching and telling us
about the city of Paris

Questions
1.
Explain how you would feel if what happened to
Frollo happened to you.
I would
feel betrayed and why my actions have wronged another person being Quasimodo. Quasimodo
trusted in Frollo to do what is right and I would feel the same and he evilly
laughing at someone being killed would hurt me.
2.
Throughout the novel how is the theme of
obsession portrayed.
The book
shows obsession through Frollo and La Esmeralda as he won’t let anyone have her
but himself. This shows that he is obsessed with her and can’t give her some
room.

Daniel’s blog was really insightful as it made me think
about another perspective of the book. With a little bit more detail and more
emphasis on certain parts and I feel that this will be a job well done.

Questions
1.
Why did La Esmeralda
bring water to Quasimodo when he is being tortured?
La
Esmeralda brought water to Quasimodo as she felt bad for him and she was also
on the other end of that as well. She was also tortured before so she knows how
it feels and doesn’t want others to feel the same pain she did.
2.
What is the theme of The Hunchback of Notre Dame?
The theme
of the Hunchback of Notre Dame is obsession and how people get obsessed over
things and can’t control themselves. Frollo was obsessed with La Esmeralda and
never gave her space when she was clearly married.
