.... tears Had left the flushing in her galled eyes, She married. O, most wicked speed, to post With such dexterity to incestuous sheets! It is not, nor it cannot come to good. (Hoy, 11) It is understandable Hamlet is upset with his mother for forgetting about his father and marrying his uncle, Claudius.

.... dialed and a person could get a reading. Then to show that the reading was accurate, they had people come on and say that their experience with the psychic was "life changing," and that "it was so real… the psychic knew everything." It is amazing what people will fall for in this day and age. Info-mercials are basically half hour commercials that attempt to sell products to watchers. The products that most info-mercials offer are things that are said to "improve someone's life" but in most cases the products are rip-offs and are an easy way for the manufacturer's to make mon .....

.... in the future. In a tragic play, the protagonist is plagued by a "fatal flaw" in his or her personality. Usually the flaw leads to the protagonist's demise or downfall. Brutus' fatal flaw is that he is too trusting. Brutus is an honorable man, who foolishly believes that those around him are just as honest and noble as himself. He just wants what is best for the Republic, and the conspirators convince him that Caesar's death is the best thing for the people. When a person becomes too trusting he is easy to manipulate and the conspirators use him as a figurehead of sor .....

.... available to anyone, and that the testimony of the key witness is suspect. Gradually they are won over by his arguments and even the most narrow minded of his fellow jurors hesitantly agrees with him. Their verdict is now a solid not guilty. Arriving at a unanimous not guilty verdict does not come easily. The jury encounters many difficulties in learning to communicate and deal with each other. What seems to be a decisive guilty verdict as deliberations begin slowly becomes a questionable not sure. Although the movie deals with issues relating to the process of effe .....


Film Review: Close Encounters Of The Third Kind
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 598

.... firmly in the outstanding performances by Dreyfuss, Barro, and co-star Terri Garr. Dreyfuss has a knack for being able to portray an erratic man who in one instant is completely normal, and at other times becomes utterly insane. Melinda Barro also puts in an extremely believable performance as Dreyfuss's side-kick in search of her abducted son. But perhaps the most hidden success of this movie is the very underrated actress Teri Garr, who put in her two cents as Dreyfuss's wife. Garr did play a small role, yet it was effective, it produced a gauge of just how crazy Dreyfus .....

Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1000

.... (Sc.I 125) Here we can see that Hamlet had told Ophelia earlier in the scene how deeply he loved her, but here he has changed completely, saying that he had never loved her. With in this quote he slips in that Ophelia should go to a nunnery. This is his just cause for his maddness. He tries to get Ophelia to forget him and go to the nunnery so that she can be safe, and away from all his troubles that would soon come. Here we see his justcause as well as his foreshadowing for things to come. Like many Princes, Hamlet has been highly educated in Whittenburg, England. H .....


King Lear: Conspiracy In Nakedness And Dress
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 616

.... Lear strips off all his clothing, showing he is now at the very bottom of the social order. To have some clothes is to be someone, to have none is to be nobody. Edgar, legitimate son to the Earl of Gloucester, is well dressed, not as much as Lear, but still above commoners. Edgar is believed to be plotting to annihilate his own father. So every one is after someone named "Edgar", who is a well dressed noble. In order to protect himself, Edgar becomes no one. He becomes nobody by shedding his noble garments, and disguises himself by, "My face I'll grime with filth,/ .....


Medea's Revenge
Number of pages: 8 | Number of words: 1985

.... choose a husband, and had to be represented by men in all legal proceedings. In some ways, these Greek women were almost like slaves. There is a definite relationship between this subordination of women and what transpires in the play. Jason decides that he wants to divorce Medea and marry the princess of Corinth, casting Medea aside as if they had never been married. This sort of activity was acceptable by Greek standards, and shows the subordinate status of the woman, who had no say in any matter like this. Even though some of Medea's actions were not typical of th .....
