What is 20,000 leagues under the sea
Summary
WARNING SPOILERS!!!
In part 1 of Jules Verne´s many events lead to this wondrous story of adventure and fun. At first Aronnax our main character is greeted with the chance of being aboard the Abraham Lincoln (a ship) on the hunt for the great ¨Sea Monster¨ threatening the ocean at this time, while aboard they find themselves in an engaging battle with the monster only to lose. They wake up to find themselves upon the glorious Nautilus and amazed by the ship and it´s crew, among the crew awaits Captain Nemo who has expected Aronnax and starts off their friendship. Later in Part 1 Captian and Arronax goes diving with two other men to a remote place to see the beauty of the sea. Lastly well part 2 but you´ll have to read that part with you own eyes!
A stroll on the ocean bed
This chapter is one of my favorite parts because it shows not only the beauty of the sea but also how all the men aboard including the captain love every aspect of it. Enough to go explore it for themselves.
Ned Land
In this chapter we meet one of our main characters and also one of our most abscissas characters who in the end will end up a main factor of survival, for better of for worse.
The DEVILFISH
In this chapter the nautilus is under attack by a squid! Yes a squid!! Its a great chapter and shows that the sea is beautiful and still dangerous!
Notice and Note Bookmarks
- In chapter 6 Ned Land tries to pierce the "whale" with his harpoon but fails
- This is caused by the fact that this is no whale at all
#2 Aha moment
- This happens when Aronnax finally realizes this is no whale at all
- This will open a whole new side to 20,000's story
#3 Tough Questions
- In chapter 11 Captain Nemo asks "Where could one find more solitude, more tranquility
-This question makes me think why doesn't Nemo like land and Whats happened to him in the past?
#4 Words of the Wiser
- In chapter 19 Captain Nemo tells Aronnax about a peaceful death for a sailor
- This show Aronnax that if you live by the sea you die by the sea
#5 Again & Again
- In the story you see that all the time the men are talking about and/or looking at the sea
- This happens because they are well... SURROUNDED BY THE SEA!!!
