Blood Wedding Journal #2

"Journal #5 Examine how Lorca characterize the archetypes of the play. Does Lorca embrace or reject the archetype? What is the effect of the characterization?"
In order to do this person, I had to look up what an archetype is and it is "the original pattern or model from which all things of the same kind are copied or on which they are based" (www.dictionary.com).
UM... so does Lorca embrace this... well... If I am equating this correctly, it is the same thing as a stereotype. Lorca rejects the archetype. Lorca especially rejects the archetype of the bride and weddings. The bride is dressed in black and is completely solemn when around her bridegroonm. The archetype of a bride is excited and dressed in white. Also, Lorca rejects the archetype of weddings. Lorca rejects the archetype of the wedding being fully planned out and all decorated up when the bridegroom can just call on his bride and say let's get married on Sunday. The effect of the characterization is that it sets the tone for the mysterious, strange atmosphere that lingers throughout the play. It also could be relatable to the audience of the time in the area that he was from. However, this makes it foreign to us.
