Katniss Everdeen In The Hunger Games By Fara Ahmedi

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins tells the tale of Katniss, a determined, independent, and complex woman trying to keep her loved ones safe and protected. Katniss’ personality and appearance contradict traditional leading lady norms, and her relationship and eventual romance with Peeta show the defiance of traditional gender roles in romantic relationships. Katniss and Peeta redefine gender roles in The Hunger Games as she stays true to her raw looks and personality, he embraces thoughtfulness, and as they both take on different romantic roles than society normally sees in romantic relationships. Scholars, Lem and Hassel, argue that there are gender roles seen in media, but I would like to go farther to say that kindness is a more

Without the help of Ghulam Ali and a positive mind, Farah Ahmedi wouldn’t have been able to escape Pakistan. For example, as Ahmedi was being shoved farther from the border of Pakistan, “The Afghans were yelling something, and the Pakistanis were yelling back” (Ahmedi para. 1). Additionally, “The guards had clubs, and they had carbines, too, which they turned around and used as weapons” (Ahmedi para. 2). Ahmedi’s goal was necessary because if she hadn’t escaped, she would’ve continued to suffer in the conditions she was living in, and it could’ve gotten worse as the time went by. As the text states, “How did I scale that mountain so easily? How did I climb down the other side” (Ahmedi para. 12)? Also, “You and your mother are in my care now” (Ahmedi para. 9). Farah, her mom, and the family they were traveling with achieved their goal by making it past the several miles of mountains with Ghulam Ali’s help. According to

The Hunger Games Analysis : Katniss Everdeen There are many things people think of when reading Suzanne Collins’ novel, The Hunger Games, but one topic that scarcely gets mentioned is a tragic love story. Many readers do not see past the hatred and violence, and believe this is not a book for young adults and pre-teens, but what they do not see is the love and romance throughout the novel. There are many heartfelt moments and lessons that are overlooked because of the vast amount of mass murder in the novel, but there is one thing that is often too frequently missed that should not be because of the great lessons it can teach young teens and adults. This is Katniss’ stubborn denial of Peeta’s love, even though she has the same feelings for him, and the way they sacrifice, without even realizing it, for each other throughout the novel.

The novel Hunger Games written by Suzanne Collins and the motion picture In Time; both embraces the functionalist perspective, where they’re contributing to the stability of their nation of a whole by intimidating their citizens, by keeping the districts/time zones isolated from one another to prevent them from rallying together against an authoritative leadership, that consist of the Capitol being ruled by President Snow (Hunger Games) and New Greenwich (In Time). In both the novel and film, each district and time zones, the leadership’s uses characteristic of Weber’s Model of Bureaucracy where within the nations they have absolute control of every aspect of life, where they attempt to give districts solidarity through mechanical solidary unique to each district, where each serves through a division of labor. Both accentuates conformity to its demands and values, and to keep them from going against the leadership they maintain a constant police presence with peacekeepers (Hunger Games) and timekeepers (In Time).

Author, Suzanne Collins, who wrote The Hunger Games, writes about the hardships of Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Millard through The Hunger Games. Katniss is a very skilled bow hunter whereas Peeta has massive strength. Peeta was chosen to fight for his life in the hunger games. Katniss on the other hand volunteered as tribute for her sister Prim. “With one sweep of my arm, I push her behind me. I volunteer! I gasp. I volunteer as tribute” (Collins 22).

The Hunger Games is one of the most popular young adult book series of all time, and it is for good reason too. When Katniss Everdeen, the main protagonist sacrifices her own safety to protect her little sister Prim, her whole life changes for the worst. This change has forced her to do one singular thing: survive. Survival is a key theme of The Hunger Games. Katniss Everdeen survives and fights for three main things in The Hunger Games: for herself, for her family, and for others. Katniss fights for herself because she has many perils and experiences in surviving through the Hunger Games, and even before the actual Games by winning over sponsors to send her some gifts inside of the arena. She fights for family by sacrificing herself to save her sister when her sister is chosen at the Reaping, Katniss sacrifices her own safety by volunteering to participate for the Hunger Games. She also fights for others by trying to protect Rue, a nimble twelve year old girl who helps Katniss attack the Careers in the actual Hunger Games, and her district partner and love interest Peeta Mellark. Surviving is one of her first instincts in life, especially seeing that she is an amazing bow hunter who feeds her family daily, so being in the Hunger Games puts her at a slight advantage, especially when she gets her hands on the bow, but others have trained their whole lives for the Hunger Games, a group of kids who were trained at a young age for the Hunger Games called the Careers.

The Hunger Games, this movie is concentrated on a novel written by Suzanne Collins. Every year children/youth, male and female between the ages twelve to eighteen are selected at random from every twelve districts and forced to participate in the annual death match; The Hunger Games. It is an obligatory penance that each district has to offer for their iniquities, the revolution that was activated and commenced against the Capitol. These tributes are delivered to the supervision of the capitol (Government) where they are transferred to an arena, which is controlled by the capitol and the tributes fight till there is only one survivor. The lone survivor signifies the strength the capitol has over the twelve districts, and the dead tributes signify the districts, how powerless they are. I chose this movie from the rest because I feel it is less complex when it comes to fully analyzing it with the questions available. The social values and the way the economy is being run by the Capitol makes it less of a havoc comprehending the way in which children and youth are being portrayed, and their values in the overpowered society.

In “The Other Side of The Sky,” the author confirms Farah and her mother’s goal: “Their only hope was to escape to Pakistan”(para. 3).
