Denotation Connotation Bevin (British foreign minister) and Byrnes (America) try to start the lorry of a 'united Germany', but Russian foreign minister Molotov has stolen the wheels - 'Pity you fellows can't get your part going. I fixed mine OK'. To do this question, you need first to borrow two concepts from English: Denotation (what you see) Connotation (how it affects its audience) This cartoon of October 1946 was drawn by the British cartoonist David Low.

Denotation Connotation Meaning Bevin (British foreign minister) and Byrnes (America) try to start the lorry of a 'united Germany', but Russian foreign minister Molotov has stolen the wheels - 'Pity you fellows can't get your part going. I fixed mine OK'. The lorry of ‘United Germany’ has broken down. Connotation A lorry is a symbol of trade, but also of ‘going places’ – i.e. Germany’s reconstruction was ‘going nowhere’. Meaning No progress was being made to sort out Germany politically or economically. This cartoon of October 1946 was drawn by the British cartoonist David Low.

Denotation Connotation Meaning Bevin (British foreign minister) and Byrnes (America) try to start the lorry of a 'united Germany', but Russian foreign minister Molotov has stolen the wheels - 'Pity you fellows can't get your part going. I fixed mine OK'. Byrnes and Bevin are trying to get the lorry started. Connotation They are exhausted and clearly out of ideas. Meaning Britain and America were trying hard to get the German economy going, but without much success. This cartoon of October 1946 was drawn by the British cartoonist David Low.

Denotation Connotation Meaning Bevin (British foreign minister) and Byrnes (America) try to start the lorry of a 'united Germany', but Russian foreign minister Molotov has stolen the wheels - 'Pity you fellows can't get your part going. I fixed mine OK'. The reason the lorry can’t get going is because Molotov has stolen the wheels for his bike. Connotation ‘Stealing the wheels’ is a reference to Soviet seizure of reparations from eastern Germany. Meaning Soviet lack of cooperation (especially over reparations) is preventing Britain and America getting the German economy going. This cartoon of October 1946 was drawn by the British cartoonist David Low.
