Questions – A rose for Emily

1.  This diary will function as I see it, as the diary of a little girl, and that the man, Jack does 

not view her even as a woman.  Either he gave her this gift on a whim, without the thought, or 

expects to be remembered in this diary, which no one will even see.  As for the symbology of 

the diary, to me a diary symbolizes devotion to the langauge I was writing in.  Perhaps this 

diary is a symbol of the devotion which the young woman endeared to him.

2.  The marriage between Jack and his wife seems troublesome on his side, but tranquil on her 

side.  Perhaps a  marriage of convenience, or perhaps his wife is sexually frigid.  

3.  The text indicates, through the descriptions of the woman’s cleanly habits, her peculiarity, 

and purported naiveté.

4.  He knows for his age, that the young lady will mature.  His age and experience is what will prevail.

The youthfulness of the world concentrates on the now, so no, I so not believe the girl cares.
