1. The reasons why he left his family is because he wants to find a job and provide income for his family. Other possible reasons why he left is to escape from war and poverty, other reason might be meeting his family from another distant land
ReplyDelete2. Shuan Tan might wanted to be different from other texts and illustrations, and therefore from this different type of text, the reader and the images interact with each other. The pictures represent dark and emotional; example the hands seperating from each other, when the father is off to sail
3. Every Culture has different expectations of whats required, and every culture is different way of life. Page 24 represents a man leaving his family to search for work. Another culture, might be different and needed the father to say because his the man of the house.
4. The pictures are bascially in chapters and steps of whats going to happen next. This represents journey because its based on a goal that has to be achieved. Journey are various steps that takes you to one act of another. These picture show that, because frist his with his family, and next thing his on the boat.

3. The reason that Shaun tan used bizarre illustrations as his text is because he wanted to persuade the reader (viewer) to continue viewing the story. Another reason is also that he found illustrations like these would portray the story better.
4. The ARRIVAL explores the role of culture because Shaun tan visits a foreign land with unfamiliar customs of that specific culture, and he learns from these customs and has accepted this culture.
5. The ARRIVAL explores the roles of relationships with Shaun tan leaving his family at the strat of the story to pursue a better life for them; his relationship with his family must be so strong that he would even leave them to help improve their lives.
1. I believe the author left his family to find a better job so that he could become a better man towards his family by supporting them better . He may have also left his family to journey out and to discover things that would be strange and unusall towards his current knowledge of the world
ReplyDelete3. I actually thought that the author was right to make such a bizarre illustration of his Graphic novel. I believe that he had done this so that we, as the reader, could create our own story line and to, sort of, travel deeper into the pictures. Basically he is giving the readers a chance to let their imagination run wild......so to speak :P
4. I believe that the role of culture is represented as Shaun Tan is thrusted upon a place where he is not able to communicate properly however, even though this is true, he has been accepted in a new society as one of them and is learning there ways and understandings
5. Shaun tan, in his graphic novel, has had some strong relationships during his journey of self discovery. His relationship with his family must have been strong as Shaun;s purpose in his journey would have been to support his family in future terms
SHU THE BOYZZ!!!!

In the graphic novel, The Arrival, The man loved his family to much to see them suffer and in a desperate attempt to make their lives happier, set out and looked for a better life for him and his family. Proving that love and determination, combined can and will achieve anything.

The role of relationships in journey texts can be really strong like in this example Shaun Tan well in my perspective misses his family and always looks at his picture of the family and it looks like his on a journey to look for a better place for there family to go to.

The Arrival: Shaun Tan PART TWO
ReplyDeleteQuestion 1
1. To earn money
2. To provide for his family
3. To get a job
4. For his families sake
5. Because he wants to be able to generate an income
Question 3
He has chosen to illustrate the world of the text in this way because the text has a dull mood, which the illustrations represent. If the illustrations were colourful the readers would think its a happy story, which it isn't.
Question 4
The arrival explores the role culture plays in journey because when people go to different places that they are not familiar with they will feel lost and feel they don't belong.
Question 5
The arrival explores the role relationships play in journey because sometimes we have to sacrifice the things and people we love to help them, like in this story were the man leaves his family for work so he can provide for them.
