Authors Who Use Accents and Dialects

·  Mark Twain: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

·  Toni Morrison: The Bluest Eye

·  Trainspotting: Irvine Welsh

·  Wuthering Heights: Emily Bronte

·  Tess of the d’Urbervilles: Thomas Hardy

·   Anything by Shakespeare

Initial Response

  • What accent or dialect did this author use?
  • What does the accent or dialect convey about the character(s) in this excerpt?
  • Do you think the author uses the accent or dialect effectively? Why or why not?
