  • Divergent Movie Review & Film Summary
    In Memoriam 1942 – 2013 | ★ ★ ★ ★ ROGEREBERT.COM Choose a Section REVIEWS DIVERGENT ★ ★ ☇ | Christy Lemire March 21, 2014 | ☄ 13 "Divergent" is all about identity—about searching your soul and determining who you are and how you fit in as you emerge from adolescence to adulthood. So it's all too appropriate that the film version of the wildly popular young adult novel struggles a bit to Print Page assert itself as it seeks to appeal to the widest possible audience. Like 23 It's the conundrum so many of these types of books face as they become pop-culture juggernauts and film franchises: which 2 elements to keep to please the fervent fans and which to toss in the name of maintaining a lean, speedy narrative? The "Harry Tweet 19 Potter" and "Hunger Games" movies—which "Divergent" resembles in myriad ways—were mostly successful in finding that balance. In bringing the first novel of Veronica Roth's best-selling trilogy to the screen, director Neil Burger ("Limitless") and screenwriters Evan Daugherty and Vanessa Taylor have included key moments and images but tweaked others to streamline the mythology and move the story along. The results can be thrilling but the film as a whole feels simultaneously overlong and emotionally truncated. Folks who've read the book will probably be satisfied with the results, while those unfamiliar with the source material may dismiss it as derivative and inferior. (Stop me if you think you've heard this one before: "Divergent" takes place in a rigidly structured, dystopian future where one extraordinary girl will serve either as its destroyer or its savior.) But the performances—namely from stars Shailene Woodley and Theo James and Kate Winslet in a juicy supporting role—always make the movie watchable and often quite engaging.

  • Discussion Questions for Divergent by Veronica Roth
    Discussion Questions for Divergent by Veronica Roth These discussion questions were prepared by the National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV) for the Reader with a Cause book club on Goodreads. If you like our questions please feel free to use them – and don’t forget to join the conversation online at https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group_folder/221831 1. Tris: “My will is mine...I shall not make it soft for you.” -Aeschylus, Agamemnon Roth describes this quote as “integral to my discovery of Tris’s voice. I wanted to create a character who could and would deliver that line...Her voice is clipped, direct, and strong, just like these lines.” After being told she was Divergent, and ultimately choosing Dauntless, Tris struggled with her identity and sense of belonging. In the end, she finds her strength and direction by defining herself as more than just her faction. “I have no home, no path, and no certainty. I am no longer Tris the selfless, or Tris the brave. I suppose that now, I must become more than either.” (Chapter 39) What do you think of our slight, yet strong heroine? Did you like her or identify with her? Are there any passages from the book that really made you understand or empathize with Tris? How do you think she compares to heroines in other contemporary Young Adult series – like Bella Swan (Twilight), Katniss Everdeen (The Hunger Games), Hermione Granger (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone), or Clary Fray (City of Bones)? 2. Book vs. Movie: A movie adaptation premiered in theaters March 21, 2014 and pulled in a cool $56 million in its opening weekend alone (the sequel is already in the works).

Therefore, this paper anchors its analysis of Veronica Roth’s Divergent, Insurgent and Allegiant on Foucault’s concept of panopticism to demonstrate the containing nature of the trilogy. The trilogy engages with identity and potential questions that concern young readers. Seemingly, it proposes radical solutions, while in reality it retains layers of surveillance and control that obliterate any attempts for change. Reading the trilogy from Foucauldian lens demonstrates how no one can escape from the prison-with-prison world it offers. The paper illustrates how the trilogy foregrounds the destructive consequences for any form of rebellion against the totalitarian and panoptic rule of the government through the use of fear appeals and penalty.

  • (Neuro)Divergence in the Divergent Universe
    CRITICAL DISABILITY DISCOURSES/ DISCOURS CRITIQUES DANS LE CHAMP DU HANDICAP 9 Pulling the Rug Out From Under (Neuro)Divergence in the Divergent Universe Alyssa Hillary Zisk* Alyssa’s pronouns: they/them/theirs University of Rhode Island, Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program [email protected] Abstract Veronica Roth’s Divergent series explicitly portrays neurological diversity, along with questions of identity, family, class, choice, values, and power. It is often considered an empowering narrative for people who do not fit in, a common experience among the teen readers who are the intended audience of most young adult literature. However, it is not clear that this narrative truly supports neurodivergent people, despite neurogenetic differences being the explicit form of diversity the series’ events hinge upon. This article critically examines the portrayal of neurological difference in Roth’s universe through the neurodiversity paradigm, and finds that neurotypicality is significantly privileged by the narrative. Keywords Neurodiversity; young adult literature; Veronica Roth; representation; autism *Alyssa is a doctoral candidate in the Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program at the University of Rhode Island. They are interested in neurodiversity and representation, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), both in terms brain computer interfaces and as used by autistic adults, and actually putting academic and neurodivergent community knowledge together to good use. Alyssa uses AAC part time as a student, teacher, and researcher.
