Comparing O. enthalpys A municipal state and Susan Glaspells A Jury of Her PeersIn ?A municipal taradiddle? by O. total heat and ?A Jury of Her Peers? by Susan Glaspell, the authors provide a disappearance of evidence ab emerge a retaliatory murder, but all one is true to human lifespan and shows characteristics about human life while the other falsifies it. In this case ?A Municipal composing? is most definitely the one that fixes the story to merely entertain the reader, and ?A Jury of Her peers? lets go the true character of mankind.In ?A Municipal Report? O. Henry tells the story in a first mortal perspective through a man who thinks he is detached from the world. In O. Henry?s story we see that certain characters stand out among the rest by the details that he gives us. The author?s opinion in, ?I stepped off the train at 8 P.M.,? is meant to appear casual to give a feel that the narrator is merely an observer in the story. The characterization in the story is also unre alistically portrayed. Azalea Adair is a hapless woman who, despite how needy she is, tells the narrator, ?You must have a instill of tea.? She is depicted as a good character without a individual(a) bad bone in her body. That would only be meant for the story since O. Henry could have set her up more realistically than a powerless princess needing to be rescued. Another character that defies human reality is Ceasar. He is shown to be a good character as well, giving Azalea his money and dower her out when she needs him. There is nothing bad about Ceasar that would realize the reader dislike him. He is the classic knight in gleam armor that could only be set up in a fantasy world. Next is the evil man Caswell. The narrator, who says, ?I have seen a few(prenominal) men whom I have so instantaneous... ...he people had practical characteristics that did not make the story any less realistic.The styles of ?A Municipal Report? and ?A Jury of Her Peers? differed greatly in the se nse of realism. While O. Henry?s story obviously served the entertaining purpose with the unpractical sense of characters and development, Glaspell?s story had a meaningful interpretation of life with pragmatic characters that could polish human life.Works CitedGlaspell, Susan. ?A Jury of Her Peers.?
