Structural Functionalists
Functionalism focuses on social stability and agreed public values and highlights the consensus and order that exists in society. Disorganization in the system, such as deviant behaviour, leads to change, according to this perspective, because society components must adjust to achieve stability. When one portion of the system breaks down, it affects the rest of the system, causing social difficulties and resulting in societal change.
What do you feel about the character?
Type in the answers.
Humanism
Humanism emphasises the value of growth and self-actualization while focusing on each individual's potential. People are always looking for new methods to develop, improve, gain new skills, and experience psychological growth and self-actualization.
Type in a short explanation to emphasize the importance of each particular moment you listed.
Example:
'Collin left childhood and became a real man at age 11. That is when his father left to war leaving him in charge of his mother and 4 little sisters.'
Cultural Materialism
Using rigorously scientific approaches, cultural materialism tries to investigate the effects of technical, economic, and demographic forces on shaping society structure and superstructure.
What is the name and genre of the literary work in which the character appears?
Examples:
- Novel: The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
- Poem: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe
- Drama: Macbeth by William Shakespeare
