BIOGRAPHY TEXT

PART 2

Assalamu'alaikum🖐😊

Hello everyone ...welcome back to my blog with me lutfi and today i will explain ypu about biography text📚🐧

📚💐You certainly have never read the biography of a character? but we only know, without knowing the details of a biographical text. Therefore, this time we will deepen what a biographical text is and how the process of a biographical text is compiled or created. so that we don't just become consumptive readers and can appreciate other people's work more. So let's get started, check it out!😊

📝 Definition of Biography

●A biography is the non-fiction, written history or account of a person’s life. Biographies are intended to give an objective portrayal of a person, written in the third person. Biographers collect information from the subject (if he/she is available), acquaintances of the subject, or in researching other sources such as reference material, experts, records, diaries, interviews, etc. Most biographers intend to present the life story of a person and establish the context of their story for the reader, whether in terms of history and/or the present day. In turn, the reader can be reasonably assured that the information presented about the biographical subject is as true and authentic as possible. Biographies can be written about a person at any time, no matter if they are living or dead. 

📝 Function of Biography

➡️To know a person’s story about his/her life outside of any accomplishments this person   may be known for.

➡️To give many information easily and educate the readers.

📝 Characteristics of Biography

🌞Biography Not written by subject and always written in third person. In other words, the biographical text is not made by the person whose life is told, but is told by someone else in the third person point of view. 

🌞Based on research. The text is made based on the fact that a character's life experience contains the story or story of a character in navigating his life, whether it is in the form of advantages or disadvantages written by other people so that they should be exemplary. 

🌞Describes the person's environment (where, when and how the person lives).

🌞Use vivid language to narrate events. Clear language should really be applied in a biographical text in order to avoid mistakes in the information presented.

- ORIENTATION (INTRODUCTION) 

It is the opening paragraph, gives the readers the background information of the person. Usually contains narrated biodata such as full name, place and date of birth. 

- EVENTS

Example : He was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

🐧 Temporal sequence (sequence of time) and temporal conjunction (temporal conjunction). As a liaison between one sentence with another sentence in the order of time.

🐧 Focus on specific participants

Use of Action verbs. group of words that describe something the character is actively doing.

Example : The family then moved to his stepfather’s home country.

📝 Types of Biography

💐Short biography (focuses only on highlights of a person’s life)

💐Long biography (about life and times of someone in a lot more detail).

💐 Example

Alexander Graham Bell

Alexander Graham Bell (/ˈɡreɪ.əm/; born Alexander Bell, March 3, 1847 – August 2, 1922)[3] was a Scottish-born[N 2] inventor, scientist, and engineer who is credited with inventing and patenting the first practical telephone. He also co-founded the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) in 1885.[6]

Bell's father, grandfather, and brother had all been associated with work on elocution and speech and both his mother and wife were deaf; profoundly influencing Bell's life's work.[7] His research on hearing and speech further led him to experiment with hearing devices which eventually culminated in Bell being awarded the first U.S. patent for the telephone, on March 7, 1876.[N 3] Bell considered his invention an intrusion on his real work as a scientist and refused to have a telephone in his study.[8][N 4]

Many other inventions marked Bell's later life, including groundbreaking work in optical telecommunications, hydrofoils, and aeronautics. Although Bell was not one of the 33 founders[10] of the National Geographic Society, he had a strong influence on the magazine while serving as the second president from January 7, 1898, until 1903.[11]

Beyond his scientific work, Bell had a deep interest in the emerging science of heredity.[12]

Alexander Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on March 3, 1847.[13] The family home was at South Charlotte Street, and has a stone inscription marking it as Alexander Graham Bell's birthplace. He had two brothers: Melville James Bell (1845–1870) and Edward Charles Bell (1848–1867), both of whom would die of tuberculosis.[14] His father was Professor Alexander Melville Bell, a phonetician, and his mother was Eliza Grace Bell (née Symonds).[15] Born as just "Alexander Bell", at age 10, he made a plea to his father to have a middle name like his two brothers.[16][N 5] For his 11th birthday, his father acquiesced and allowed him to adopt the name "Graham", chosen out of respect for Alexander Graham, a Canadian being treated by his father who had become a family friend.[17] To close relatives and friends he remained "Aleck".[18]

Nicola Tesla

Nikola is considered one of the most important inventors of electricity in history and was one of the greatest engineers of the late 19th and 20th centuries. He was a pioneer of electromechanical, cordless and electric power. He is of Serbian descent and became a citizen of the United States in 1981 while working in the country.

Tesla's patents and theoretical work are the basis of modern alternating current electric power, including polyphase power distribution as well as AC motors, which he announced in the 2nd industrial revolution. After demonstrating wireless communication in 1893 and winning the current war, Nikola is considered one of America's greatest electricians.

In New York he worked for Edison and succeeded in designing as many as 24 types of dynamos. However, the two never seemed to match, so in 1887 Tesla left and founded his own laboratory. In just a short time, Nikola Tesla managed to prove that his AC current system was much more powerful than the DC edition system. Incredibly, in less than a year he has patented about 30 works. And in the next 20 years he made an astonishing number of discoveries in electrical and radio engineering. Unfortunately, however, a series of accidents have destroyed much of his writings.

fortunately there are still efforts for his invention, for example Nikola Marconi bases as the inventor of the circuit searching for radio waves. Unfortunately, this fact was determined by the United States High Court on the exact year of his death. In fact, there are other possible degrees, such as the first researchers of cathode rays and X-rays, ultraviolet radiation from high-frequency currents and their therapeutic effects on the body. He is also the one who designed the ancestor of the fluorescent tube and developed the laser device.

Because of his creativity in 1912 Nikola Tesla was nominated for the Nobel prize in physics. However, he refused, Nikola Tesla felt more entitled to get in 1909 the Nobel awarded to Marconi. welcome, in 1898 at Madison Square Garden he demonstrated radio control of a boat.

Unlike Marconi, Nikola is very concerned with transmitting energy not only in small amounts in the form of radio signals, but also large amounts of electricity for home and industrial purposes. Right in 1899 he built a giant electric power transmitter in Colorado Springs. The working principle is very simple, which is similar to a child's swing toy. A light push will start to move it, pushing at the right time will make the swing higher. Likewise, a series of electrical vibrations, the frequency it receives is right on the main coil. The vibrations of the poles with Nikola's second coil will generate high-frequency radio waves that can travel long distances to the other hemisphere back and forth.
