Resumen del Recurso
First Kisses in Literature
Lolita-Vladimir Nabakov
Shared between Lolita and Humbert
Humbert is aware of what he is doing-he understands that he is breaking the law
'As the psychotherapist, as well as the rapist, will tell you'
Forbidden love
'Afraid I might go too far and cause her to start back in revulsion and terror'
Set in the car after the death of Lolita's mother
Extremely uncomfortable for the reader-Lolita is twelve years old and Humbert is in his thirties
'Sweet wetness and trembling fire'
'Peppermint taste of her saliva'
'I touched her hot, opening lips with the utmost piety, tiny sips, nothing salacious'
Unreliable narrator
'Lolita positively flowed into my arms'
Exposes Lolitas innocence and child-like nature
The Magic Toyshop
Shared between Melanie and Finn
Set in the Pleasure Garden
Despite the location being spacious, Melanie feels like she can't escape
She describes the kiss as inevitable
Finn=animal/gross imagery
'He wiped his mouth on the back of his hand'
'Raised his black PVC arms and flapped them, cawing like a crow'
'Warm breath from his wild beast's mouth'
The kiss destroys Melanie's original day-dreams of first kisses
'Just get it over with'
'She imagined that they must have looked quite striking[....] She choked and struggled'
The characters are positioned either side of a fallen statue of a queen
Shows separation between them
The queen represents Melanie's dreams of romance being destroyed
Male-led scenario; Finn leads the encounter entirely
Melanie is described as being 'stiff' and trapped
Romeo and Juliet
Forbidden love
Separated by their families hatred for one another
Passionate and consensual in both people
'Let lips do what hands do-they pray'
'You kiss by the book'
Very romantic encounter
Traditional love
The encounter takes place at a party/ball
Neither of them are aware of the other persons identity
Haidee and Juan in Don Juan
Lord Byron
Vivid colours
'Spread like a rosy ocean, vast and bright'
'And beauty, all concentrating like rays'
'They gazed upon the glittering sea below'
Use of the word 'gazed'-mesmerised by both the sea and each other
Use of commas in the first stanza to build tension
'and, beholding this,'
'They heard the waves splash, and the wind so low'
Pathetic fallacy
The pace slows after the first stanza
'A long, long kiss of youth, and love'
Repetition of 'long'
