A Comparison between John Steinbeck's Characters - George Milton from 'Of Mice and Men' and Mordeen Saul from 'Burning Bright'
DIBĎÁKOVÁ, Aneta
The main aim of this thesis is the analysis of the characters from John Ernst Steinbeck's play-novelettes 'Of Mice and Men' (1937) and 'Burning Bright' (1950) with a focus on the characters of George Milton and Mordeen Saul. To provide a background for the analysis of the characters, the work first concentrates on the author and the works themselves. This chapter primarily centers on the motivations of John Steinbeck, provides a relation between the books and his life, and discusses the opposite nature of the two works. Subsequently, the work analyses the characters of George Milton and Mordeen Saul in two ways: their outer appearance, and their psychology and motivation. The analysis provides various facts, such as that Mordeen and George both share their version of the American dream with their companions. This is further developed to establish the similarities of the characters to prove that John Steinbeck had employed recurring character traits, themes, and motivations for his work.
