Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,5, University of Osnabrück (Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaft), course: Penelope Lively's Juvenile and Adult Fiction, 1 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This paper is a drawing up of the group work I did with some students on Penelope Lively's novel Moon Tigerin our seminar Penelope Lively's Juvenile and Adult Fiction.In the novel Moon Tiger,the female main character, Claudia Hampton, tells the story of her life when she is lying on her deathbed in a nursing home. In the following paper I am going to take a closer look at the relationships Claudia has to three men during the story. First, there is Gordon, Claudia's brother, with whom she has a very close relationship. He is followed by Jasper, the father of her child Lisa, and the last but maybe most important man in Claudia's life is Tom, her only true but short lasting love. My aim is to show how Claudia feels for each of them and it gets clear that she has three definitions of love - one for each man.
