Oedipus fulfilled the prophecy without even knowing it. Thebes now had to endure a plague, and a prophet put the blame on a polluter of the land of Thebes.

.... although Fleance manages to escape. At the banquet, Banquo's ghost haunts . The fact that plans the murder of his friend Banquo and Banquo’s son Fleance with out any help from an outside person shows that the evil in is growing and becoming dominant over the good.

.... from Romeo, but before the time he met Juliet. According to his definition, love (or, rather, not returned love) is pain. He h ides from the sun due to the "love" he feels, and does not act like "himself." I believe Romeo is both right and wrong: not returned love is pain, but Romeo doe s not truly love, as he is merely infatuated by a woman. The next definition of love comes from Juliet, who, before meeting Romeo, did no t even have a definition of love. She appears not to know what love is, and, for that matter, does not seem to care. She remains ignorant until she meets Rom .....

.... indeed to the English people. In The Mikado, the sparking lyrics and the vagaries of love set in a fanciful Japanese society. For example: KO-KO (Lord High Executioner of Titipu) is engaged to YUM-YUM (Ward of KO-KO).

It is evident that Galatea's form is no longer that of a lifeless sculpture. Her plain, ivory skin and sinuous curves are seen from a backside view. Her lower body remains stone-like and chalky, bu .....

.... This inferior role from which Nora progressed is extremely important. Ibsen in his "A Doll's House" depicts the role of women as subordinate in order to emphasize the need to reform their role in society. Definite characteristics of the women's subordinate role in a relationship are emphasized through Nora's contradicting actions. Her infatuation with luxuries such as expensive Christmas gifts contradicts her resourcefulness in scrounging and buying cheap clothing; her defiance of Torvald by eating forbidden Macaroons contradicts the submission of her opinions, including t .....

.... an inferior tragedy as for the criminals to die would, in a sense, provide an escape from what they have done. Instead they must live with the knowledge of their crime for the rest of their lives. The tragedy in Electra is not simply confined to the action of the play, and in the first speech the Peasant reveals to the audience that it is more of an ongoing affliction on the house of Agamemnon. In one sentence the Peasant reveals the sole reason for Electra's revenge, and the reason for this play itself, when he tells us how Agamemnon "died, by his wife Clytamnestra's treach .....
