Macbeth: His Trust In The Witches
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1103

.... thane of Cawdor, too" (I. iii, 86-88). Here we can see for ourselves that Macbeth has trusted the witches from word one and does not even think to question what they have told him. Not too much later, Macbeth discovers that the thane of Cawdor has been killed for crimes against Duncan and he is named thane of Cawdor. "Glamis, and thane of Cawdor! The greatest is behind!" (I. iii,116-117). This fulfillment of the first part of the witches prophecies seals his trust in them and drives him to his next act, Duncan's murder, which is the act that seals his fate and u .....


The Frequent Death Of A Character In Hamlet
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 901

.... of Act III, scene iv, when Hamlet stabs him while he is hiding behind the arras in Gertude’s room. This shows how Polonius, a man unaware of the true nature of the situation he is in, is killed by a member of the royalty during the execution of one of their schemes. This makes Polonius’ death a tragedy. The next member of Polonius’ family to die is his daughter Ophelia. Ophelia’s death is tragic because of her complete innocence in the situation. Some may argue that Polonius deserves his fate because of his deceitfulness in dealing with Hamlet while he is mad, but Ophelia is e .....

.... and films. Nearly all of us have been exposed to television, videotapes, and films in the classroom. Children in day- care centers often watch Sesame Street.

.... the article "Judith Leyster's Proposition - Between Virtue and Vice" by Frima Fox Hofrichter talks mainly about the sexual proposition of a man towards a woman during the seventeenth century. The painting "The Proposition" represents an indecent proposal towards a woman and her reaction to this indecent proposal. During this century, there was a resurgence of prostitution throughout European countries.

.... a male. Bassanio is a male. Bassanio likes Antonio in a romantic way and also loves Portia, a female. Also, there is another pair who I am suspicious about. They are Salanio and Salerio. The reason is that they are always together, just like siamese twins. When Salanio comes, Salerio comes. When Salerio goes, Salanio goes. Here is a famous quote by Shakespeare, ÒThe love that dares not speak its name.Ó In the play, there are many places where Antonio expresses love for Bassanio; for example, Òlove the world for BassanioÓ and also Ògreat affection for BassanioÓ.This certainl .....

Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 674

.... later Lady Macbeth convinces him, by questioning his manhood, to commit the dastardly crime. When he finally murders Duncan, the problem comes to closure. But, even long before then, the next step in the mold had begun: the descent into the abyss. The "decent into the abyss" is the second step in the Classical Tragic Mold. It is started with Macbeth's second soliloquy. This is after Macbeth hears from Duncan that Malcolm was to be named the Prince of Cumberland. "The Prince of Cumberland! That is a step on which I must fall down, or else o'erleap, for in my way it lies ... L .....


Cartoons: Land Of Imagination
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1130

.... Cartoon Universe is not a tangible substance, rather an exploration into imagination. It is this facet that makes this universe more appealing than our own. One is free to create and manipulate not only the physical actions of a character, but the mental behavior as well. If my recollection serves me correct, aside from hypnosis, there is nowhere else that this is possible. In the cartoon world, "anything goes." There are no boundaries to which one is confined. With a little ingenuity and imagination one can create a place or being that has never existed bef .....
