how does atonement encompass the genre of postmodernism, particularly metafiction? is there any specific passage that shows such? addressing the concept of metafiction, discuss the ways in which the novel atonement can be considered postmodern. you are asked to specifically locate aspects of postmodern writing at work in the novel, and to illustrate their significance: once identified, how do these formal devices express a postmodern worldview?
atonement speaks to the postmodernist belief that reality tends to be subjective. it’s briony’s interpretation of reality and what happened to lola that sets the plot in motion. the metafiction of atonement links to briony’s own writing endeavors. her writing helps ian mcewan address the pros and cons of fiction and its relationship to reality.
boredom would itself represent an imprefection so your question is essentially inapplicable. i do not adhere to the idea of an afterlife but i was brought up a catholic and understand the doctrine and associated beliefs. the concept of perfection in this context excludes any potential for unhappiness or dissatisfaction. **it establishes the authors' in-depth understanding and knowledge of their field subject**. it gives the background of the research. portrays the scientific manuscript plan of examining the research result. illuminates on how the knowledge has changed within the field. dear student,

anaphora : the use of a word referring back to a
word used earlier in the chapter is known as anaphora meaning the
use of synonyms to refer to one single thing
repetition is the simple repeating of a word, within a
sentence or a poetical line, with no particular placement of the
words
metaphor is an implied simile it is different from
simile because like similes they do not state that one thing is
like another or acts as another but takes that for granted and
proceeds as if the two things were one

â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹regards first, let me teach you about filtering. it's the point of view character telling the reader what sense she used to experience what's happening, or that she used her brain to figure something out or remember something. not only does it add needless words, but it adds "psychic distance" between the reader and the character's experiences. you can look for the words that commonly filter: knew, thought, considered, regarded, wondered, noticed, was aware, sensed, felt, saw, hoped, realized, smelled, heard and it seemed, looked like, appeared, was obvious/apparent. decide on a case-by-case basis whether it's there to filter the point-of-view character's experience, and if it is, rewrite it.

so we'll start with getting rid of what the pov character used to determine what her master was doing. that leaves something like: my master loomed over my shoulder, holding a chain that connected to my collar. (or whatever there is to connect it to.)

is this sexual material? a master must be male, or present as male, and in a submissive character's point of view, the title is capitalized. a "female master" is generally a mistress, madam, domme, or similar title, also capitalized.

the reader needs to know more that what the pov character sees. if she feels the need to look up at her mistress, it's for a reason. did she feel new weight on a collar? hear chain clink? feel eyes on her? 

and last, get some feeling in there. how does the narrator react to being chained at the neck, both physically and emotionally? the handmaid's tale - the handmaid's tale is a dystopian novel by margaret atwood. set in a totalitarian theocracy that has overthrown the united states government, the novel explores themes of women in such as individualism and independence. 1. to connect ideas

5. consequently there arethree dimensions of culture cognitive, normative and
material thatcomprise a whole
(i)cognitive: it refers to how we learn to process what we see
and hearso as to give it a meaning for example, looking at a flag
andassociating it with the country to which it belongs symbolising
thewaving of hand as a means of saying goodbye thus, every culture
hasgiven a different meaning to different actions
(ii)normative: it refers to the rules of conduct every society
has somerules according to which its members have to behave as a
result,this behaviour and action of the individuals become the
culture ofthat society
(iii)material: it includes any activity which is made possible
by themeans of materials it also includes tools and machines, which
issaid to be a part of the culture
inthe present industrial societies, advanced technology and
machinesare used some societies use them in abundance such as, usa

ofvarious materials in different ways for various purposes shows

therefore,culture can be identified as material and non-material
for theproper and integrated functioning of the culture, both
material andnon-material dimensions work together as a whole the

One is a Western view which has an emphasis on shame or "What comes around goes around." In other words if one has done something to hurt or damage another then at some point in the future one will experience a similar injury or embarrassment that somehow "evens the score."  
  
Another perspective comes from the Eastern Hindu and Buddhist faiths which view karma as life presenting constant experiences for "soul growth". Whether "good" or "bad" experiences their purpose is for the eventual acquisition of "enlightenment" and freedom from the wheel of reincarnation. What is this enlightenment? It is living in the consciousness of love and compassion. It's not a philosophy of shame or "comeuppance" for doing wrong to another.   
  
It's really tough to forgive someone if they have hurt or wronged you. And yet, it is by following this difficult path, we eventually earn both a psychological and spiritual freedom that allows us to live a peaceful life.
