TASK 2 LOVE !

Now I will explain you the contrasts and similarities between Ishmael Chamber`s relationship with Hatsue when he was a child, a grown-up man and at the end of the novel. The trial against Kabuo was in the winter 1952. Ishmael, the local reporter, saw Hatsue after fourteen years again and he reminded the earlier time. He knew that this fourteen years have changed a lot since they spent their time together under the cedar tree. It was a lucky time for them, although the parents were not allowed to find out their relationship, because Hatsue is a Japanese and should love a real Japanese boy. Now this is why it was a secret love. Later on, Hatsue leaved America due to the second world war. But nevertheless Ishmael felt the ditto lovely feeling for Hatsue in all his tree periodes (as a child, a grown-up and also at the end of the novel). He couldn`t forget her, neighter when she leaved America, nor she married Kabuo. So in contrast with Ishmaels true feelings was this relationship for Hatsue only a short childhood love. Because on the one hand she thought at the beginning of their relationship that she loved Ishmael, but on the other hand she ran away, when Ishmael asked her to marriage him. I also think that Ishmael never overcame his love to Hatsue, because he never had a girlfriend between this time when Hatsue leaved America. So when Ishmael saw her at the trial, she didn`t want to talk with him. First he couldn`t understand this, although that she wrote him a letter for many years and told him in this that she never want to see him again. And so the contact broken totally. Mabye she was afraid of him and his feelings, because she knew that he still loved her. Likewise when Ishmael was a child and Hatsue leaved America, he wanted also at the end of the novel to feel her body a last time. He was full of longing and he was also happy to see her at the trial again. I also think that he would have this longing forever, because Hatsue was his first big love. And you can see at the end of the novel very clearly that he really loved Hatsue, because he helped her to absolve her husband Kabuo. So that I will call true love.

TASK 2 CORRECTION OF THE FIRST ENGLISH EXAM

I think art is quite relative and for each human differently. Maybe for some people this picture is art, but for me it’s a normal snapshot, nothing else. In my opinion you must see art in conjunction with skill, because otherwise every human can say that he creates art, although it’s only a little red point on a canvas. So when I look at this photograph a second time then it conveys me the impression of working in the garden, but not of being an artwork. Everybody can create such a photograph, and I think an artwork should be something special. So all in all it’s just a pretty picture for me, nothing else.
