Example of Character.
For those who do not have understood Manzoni is my role model, not the writing but way.
I will not dwell, but I make an example with the character of Agnes of PS
Agnes The role can be identified as the person who acts as assistant of the protagonists in the story.
The author presents this character indirectly is not providing a complete description, but a series of clues that make up the figure. However, his appearance there is in ch. II "... Meanwhile, the Buna Agnes (that was the mother of Lucy), put into suspicion and curiosity from the little word in your ear, and by the shot of his daughter, was down to see what was new ..." .
Agnese is a typical woman who is in the districts Brianza. His character, determined and quick, combined with an experience of life within herself that she probably overestimates, the extreme leads to the safety of trial; his concern and his love for his only daughter, veiled by a restraint that is right for people accustomed to a 'life reduced to its essential values, ease of speech and his boldness of expression, constitute a distinctive brand. Agnes is a feature of the speed with which you have to help her daughter in the attainment of his happiness. It works with self-confidence, the people of their limited culture, which is taken to see one face of reality, one that directly affects. His opinions and his advice is always decisive, because Agnes focuses on his experience which is accompanied by a fundamental optimism. Let's see, during the each other, that if his advice had a positive result, this happens by chance. For example, with its bold design of the wedding a surprise, he manages to foil the attempt to raid his house and kidnapped his daughter, and if she was able to accomplish what his father Christopher would not have had time to do it by Article of a superior will, everything from small independent thoughts and tricks of the clever peasant. The episode is a surprise marriage to determine the apparent difference between Agnes and Lucy. The woman does not recommend its young people a step against the moral, but it is clear on what other plan they are mother and daughter. The first one is advocating a strictly utilitarian morality, the second a psychological condition profoundly Christian.
's why Agnes is a static character, in the sense that, despite the events that upset with his daughter and her intended, does not change or attitude or outlook on life: Agnes always points with his usual practical sense, the need to judge things on the circumstances and not in the abstract.
