PowerPoint Presentation The Handmaid’s TalePowerPoint演示文稿的使女的故事

The Handmaid’s Tale By Margaret Atwood Rebecca Weingart, Anne Kroeger, and Rachel Fenton Plot Synopsis Offred, a Handmaid, lives with her Commander, a Handmaid’s Tale is her journal that holds the story of her stay in Gilead. Characters Serena Joy: “She doesn’t speak to me, unless she can’t avoid it. I am a reproach to her; and a necessity”(Atwood 13). Commander: “I ought to feel hatred for this man… but it isn’t what I do feel” (58). Nick: A Guardian that works for the commander that we can assume helps Offred to safety. Characters continued…. Ofwarren: Another Handmaid that befriends Offred on their walks to the market. Moira: A defiant and independent woman who chose her future and didn’t let the government pick it out for her. Luke: Offred’s husband that was taken from her. Protagonist vs. Antagonist Antagonist: The Government and everyone that agrees with the government. Protagonist: The people that are against the government. Setting 2100, the republic of Gilead inside the Commanders home. There are flash backs to Offred’s home and to the Gym where she stayed before she became a Handmaid. Conflicts Internal: Offred misses her family, home, and fertility rights. She yearns to touch. Not lustfully, but purely. She yearns to feel like a human again instead of a uterus. External: Her relationship with people and the nuclear war. Conflicts continued... Man vs. society: Nick is vs. the “system” of Gilead and the bad treatment of women. “M’aidez”, help me in French, is a code of help and faith against this male chauvinist pig country. Themes and Overall Tone “Nolite de bastardes carborundorum,” (Atwood 52). Don’t let the bastards get you down, a hope quote. “I get paid you get laid, I rhyme in my head,”(262). “Faith,”(57). Recommendation Positive: Well written, very interesting, keeps the reader’s attention. Negative:Can leave the reader depressed, uses very sexual/abusive/discriminating terms. Recommendation: Great book, a fast read, women would especially enjoy
