i chose this picture because it shows the ship is having trouble and the sea is not calm as well as most of the people on the ship in chapters 9-15. there is sunlight which means the storm in over as well as the conflicts on the ship will soon end.
Reaction- Charlotte is a tattletale. a little girl doing as shes told, following orders from a " gentleman". charlotte is foolish for revealing all of the crews sercrets when she, herslef didn't have the full information about the situation. for example, when she tells the capitan of ewing's pistol and the round robin. when capitan jaggery shoots and kills mr. cranick she does nothing to stop him. in the end when she decides to join the crew she shows the beginning of her transformation and logical self.
Evaluate- charlotte wants to be like an accessory on capitan jaggery, because she sees him as the powerful sun(pg 52). she feels as if she must obey him, like a fatherly figure (pg 46). since she is his informant she believes the capitan cares about her but all he wants is information. she pleads the capitan for forgiveness(pg 104), because she sees him as a source of protection and the only one on the ship she can relate to.
charlotte underwent a sudden change from capitan's informant to sailor in training. the crew doesnt believe her at first when she decides to join the men (pg 112). they say she is " a pretty girl" (pg 115). not only that but they think she is a traitor for the events she caused on the ship.
