Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 713

.... and Capulet servants just happen to cross paths in a public place. This is a chance meeting. Coincidence cannot be involved now because it is too early in the story.

Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 949

.... the person looking at the work is standing in. The adjustment of the spectator to the pictured space is one of the first steps in the development of illusionistic painting.

The proportions in this painting are so numerically exact that one can actually calculate the numerical dimensions of the chapel in the background. The span of the painted vault is seven feet, and the depth is nine feet. "Thus, he achieves not only successful illusion, but a rational, metrical coherence that, by main .....


Oedipus
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1419

.... thwart fate and the will of the divine.. Within the principle of determinism, this outright contention to divine mandate is blasphemous and considered sin. This ideal itself, and the whole concept of determinism, is quite common in the workings of Greek and Classical literature. A manifest example of this was the infamous Oedipus of The Theban Plays, a man who tried to defy fate, and therefore sinned. The logic of Oedipus' transgression is actually quite obvious, and Oedipus' father, King Laius, also has an analogous methodology and transgression. They both had unfortunate .....

These people were rather hypocritical and deceitful to their friends because they would often turn them in under false pretenses of practicing witchcraft even if they themselves were actually guilty. This hypocrisy caused hysteria in Salem because of the race to turn one after another in. No one knew who to trust anymore. This hypocrisy and hysteria gave the girls who were involved an uncontrollable amount of power bec .....


Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire: Tragic And Comic Elements
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1198

.... serves to enforce a sense of both reality and drama that are present in everyday human life. The comic elements in the play serve as a form of determined self-preservation just as the tragic elements add to the notion of self-destruction. This is the true nature of a tragicomedy. By juxtaposing two irreconcilable positions, ambiguity is produced in the judgement of the main characters, most notably Stanley Kowalski and Blanche Dubois. Ambivalence in the play is largely caused by the relationship between Stanley and Blanche. They concurrently produce both appalling and appe .....


Macbeth: Lady MacBeth
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 599

.... the opportunity MacBeth does. This shows how mad and sadistic she was. She had absolutely no self- conscience, and thought nothing about the wrong they were soon to commit. Later on, after the murders, she, unlike MacBeth, still shows no signs of a conscience. She is very cool and collected, while MacBeth hallucinates and goes temporarily mad. Lady MacBeth on the other hand, takes everything calmly. She takes the daggers back to the King's room, smears blood on the drunken guards, and attempts to destroy all evidence of MacBeth ever being there. She knows what needs to b .....


Antigone
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 563

.... a much better leader if he would have just kept an open mind and listened to what others, especially his family, told him. He was too concerned with how good he looked and how powerful he seemed. Creon needs to learn how to stop being so arrogant. He also needs to learn how to be wise in many different ways. Ismene seemed to be scared to do things. She didn’t do what she knew was right because she knew she’d be killed. was by far my favorite character. I think that part of the reason for it was that I am very stubborn, just like she is and I’m not afraid to fight for what I fe .....
