FINAL AR--- Character Development

Character Development
Chp.11-20

Chp.11
Fernanda is the one who changes the most. When she was younger she was sheltered and hid away from the real world. It seemed as though she almost was a hermit and not trying to practice a normal life. And when she gets out for the first time, she sees everything that she doesn't even think could ever really be existing. She is so shocked that after she arrives back home she locks herself up in her room for a very long time. Fernanda changes her views and ways of the world and becomes aware of much of the things going on around her. Aureliano Segundo did a well job at putting both of the things he loves into his life for the good amount of time. Petra Cotes, Aureliano’s Concubine, molded him into her dream guy and never worried about him going to his wife. Ursula became completely blind. Renata Remedios (Meme) was born and was named after her grandmother and late aunt.

Chp.12
The person that changes the most in chapter twelve is Colonel Aureliano Buendia. He suddenly begins to not care about war and all the things that happens from it. And it is a shock because not very many people can just change their mind like that. He begins to show emotions that men usually do not let out and have others see to others. And once you think that he is all out of the ignorant and evil stage he goes right back to it and starts to think against positivity. And I think that he was really never changed, but rather have a show on for others and what they really wanted to see.

Chp.13
Ursula is learning to use her other four senses without her children, learning that she is completely blind. She becomes wiser as she gets older and starts to become aware of things in a newer light because of the lost of her sight. And it causes for her to show to others the things they would probably just skip over or not even worry about.

Chp.14
Meme now acts just like her father. She begins to want to know more about the gender of men. She was once innocent, but now all she is is curious. She even goes so far as to fall into love with someone who once was a boss to her father. And once she found out that he was shot she wasn't upbeat or energetic or happy or wanting to be happy. She changed to someone who was lonely and dying on the inside without ever begin in a coffin. Ursula stays in solitude because of the death daughter Amaranta. Colonel Aureliano Buendia has died.

Chp.15
Jose Arcadio Segundo begins to show a different side of himself and changes a little bit. Jose Arcadio Segundo's changes begins after the fatal massacre and he puts himself up into a ball and doesn't begin to talk much. He reminds the town and mostly me of how the Colonel was before he had died. Aureliano is born and is kept in isolation for almost two years. Fernanda doesn't want the rest of the family to notice him or see him yet.

Chp.16
Aureliano Segundo starts to change into someone who is content in his own life and his ways of doing things. He doesn't realyl want to fight and chooses to be okay with what is happening and is no longer a rebel to always fight for something. Ursula is towards death and Buendia's house is getting old and all ragged looking on the outside.

Chp.17
Ursula fixes up the house and dies without her family ever finding out that she was blind. Aureliano also becomes someone who is only into solitude and the peacefulness of life. He was once wild and all about having fun. He is the one that starts to translate the scrolls of Melquides.

Chp.18
Sofia is sick of the house and decides to leave. Fernanda is now stuck mistreating her husband and then she dies while baby Jose Arcadio starts the family trend of being secluded from the rest of the family in life. It seems that the running theme must have been the way that people don't talk to others or want to be bothered with really living life.

Chp.19
Amaranta Ursula is now a full grown women and not worried about trying to be a little kid at heart. And she is becoming the woman that her mother had always wanted for her to be in life. Aureliano falls in love with Amaranta.

Chp.20
Auerlino just continues on his life and the many changes that have occured. It seems that the whole town has changed and everything is not as it once had been at the beginning of the book or when the author first started the story.
