"Mrs. Linton sat in a loose, white dress, with a light shawl over her shoulders, in the recess of the open window, as usual." page 160
Imagery is the use of words to create a visual image in the readers mind. This allows for the reader to truly identify what a person may look like or what actions are being carried out. In this case, an image of Catherine is formed. We are able to picture a beautiful woman and identify what she looks like and what she is wearing. By the use of imagery, readers and authors are able to compose a picture and allow readers to relate to them in many ways. The use of an imagination also comes from imagery. A vivid picture appears in the minds when they read the strong word choice describing the character. The word choice makes it easier to picture what she acutally looks like. When I read this, I pictured a calm woman taking in the cool air. It is the use of imagery that I am able to come up with these ideas.
