RAFT Personal Letter

You have now finished the play Pygmalion and seen the results of the “experiment” with Eliza’s speech. We now see the resulting actions, feelings, and thoughts of the play’s characters.  Characterization is an important aspect of any good story, looking at how characters interact with others, their personal actions, as well as their internal dialogue.   Before our time, when there was no internet, computers, or even telephones, if you didn’t express yourself clearly, you wouldn’t have another chance! Personal letters have a lot of heart, personality, and importance to them.  Consider this when writing. I want to be able to see if you truly understand the nature of these characters.
