The Mischievous Dog

Dramatic Cycles

  • ((bite,unknown,dog,master,acquaintances),(bite,victimHurt,visitors,acquaintances))

Biting visitors seems to be satisfying for the dog, which belong to the master. At the same time, it degrades visitors, which are friends with the master.

  • ((strut,meritShown),(strut,disgraceShown,meritShown))

When the dog struts, he believes he shows merit, but in fact, he does not.

Comments

The second dramatic cycle invoves two different view points of the same action.
