But the friction between her and her mother translated also to the society, to the 'good country people.' The good country people, represented by Manley Pointer, turned against her, victimizing her by using her own ideals and beliefs. Manley took advantage of her 'weakness,' being able to see through her tough self, knowing that within her, there is a part of her that wanted attention and love without pity. O'Connor may have portrayed Manley to be truly taken by Joy/Hulga's sulkiness and believed her to be like him, the kind of 'good country person' who knew and experienced the harshness of life. This can be verified in his remark after he 'revealed' himself to Joy/Hulga, exclaiming to her, "[w]hat's the matter with you all of a sudden? You just a while ago said you didn't believe in nothing. I thought you was some girl!" (par. 139).
Though Emily and Joy/Hulga shared the same fate (both experienced 'the fall') and were characterized as abrasive individuals towards their society, Faulkner and O'Connor used fictional elements differently to illustrate each character's downfall. The plot structure, for one, was developed differently. O'Connor, on one hand, chose to show his use of irony -- the worldly Joy/Hulga being played and fooled by the worldlier Pointer -- at the end of the story, giving it a surprising ending. Faulkner, on the other hand, explicitly stated Emily's end at the start of the story, and worked towards establishing the suspense and surprising demise of another character in the story: Homer Barron. Thus, focusing on Emily's character per se, Faulkner used an inverted structure to develop the plot of the story, but sought to balance this inverted structure by developing a regularly structured story plot for Homer's character.
The third fictional element that is used to support the theme of the downfall of the characters Emily and Joy/Hulga is the point-of-view (POV). POV is powerfully used in the stories as it helped strengthen the claim that there was...
Faulkner and Joyce William Faulkner famously said that "The human heart in conflict with itself" is the only topic worth writing about. Several short stories have proven this quote to be true. The narrators of both William Faulkner's "Barn Burning" and James Joyce's "Araby" are young men who are facing their first moments where childhood innocence and the adult world are coming into conflict. Both boys, for the text makes it
Faulkner Stories William Faulkner's short stories were told by an omniscient narrator who probably represented the author, and in plot, characters and symbolism have often been classified of Southern Gothic horror. Certainly his characters were horrors, and often satirical, humorous and bizarre caricatures of the different social classes on the South from the time of slavery to the New (Capitalist) South of the 20th Century. They are often violent, deranged, frustrated,

F-ratio is designed in such a way that there is no individual difference with reference to contribution between denominator and numerator. The numerator of F-ratio measures the means difference that exists between one treatment to the other and the F-ratio is designed in such a way that both denominator and numerator measure exactly the same variance and when the null hypothesis is true, and there will be no systematic
