Setting

Setting - time and place and any special details that seem to relate to the story's development.

Hey Charlie and Ethan,

It's Reagan here in Mrs. Quinn's first period. Today I'm going to talk about the setting in "The Red Badge of Courage". Right now the story is taking place during the Civil War, so it is somewhere in between 1861 - 1865. I'm not to sure of where they are at right now, but the story is told in camps, marches, and battles. The story first started in a camp, with rumors going around that they were going to be in their first battle. The rumors were wrong, but they were ordered to march one day.The march lasted a few days, so they set up camp in a different location every night. They finally got to their first battle and it did not give a location. They could have went through a couple different states for all we know.

See you guys later! Reagan

Charlie and Reagan,

This is Ethan in Mrs. Quinn's fifth period English class. I mostly agree with Reagan. The story takes place in various settings, mostly makeshift camps and forests on which they marched, where the "Tall Soldier" tells the youth that their first battle is very soon. After he is proven false, they march on to their first battle, which is at an unspecified location, so we don't know the setting yet. Based on the descriptions, the first 50 pages seem to take place in the southern states- Virginia, North Carolina, etc.

See you guys later.
