What do you think about all these books that we have studied this semester? ... For example, in these novels, I noticed that the action is presented like when you take photos, it's like a camera which follows each character...I felt that the action isn't so important, it seems to me that it has a second role here. the characters are more important. what do you think?

One characteristic of modernism is turning to the subjectivity of the individual. I also feel that characters have the main role and that the world is filtred throught their eyes. "To the Lighthouse" begins throught the eyes of Mrs. Ramsay and it ends throught those of Lily and Cam. In "Animal Farm" the world is filtred throught a common perspective of animals as a whole and sometimes throught Clover's consciousness and in "1984" it is filtred throught Winston's eyes.

During this semester, I think that we turned our attention much more on the side of individual, as a human being,like Cristina said which is very good represented in Animal Farm", "Ulysses", "1984" and so on.The central point falls on interior conflict("monologue"), on the mind and on social life- relationship between characters as humans.
