A Comparison Of Tragedy In English Works
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 838

.... if it means killing the one he loves, Caesar. Brutus possesses one of the most tragic flaws. He is too nice of a person and therefore he gets taken advantage of. He lets Cassius persuade him into killing Caesar for the good of Rome. Because he does for others more than himself he makes a fatal mistake, he lets Antony live. Brutus says to the conspirators, "For Antony is but a limb of Caesar"(Act II scene I line 165) meaning that if Caesar is killed Antony will die off too. Brutus clearly does not regard Antony as being a threat, but little does Brutus know that Antony wil .....


Good Will Hunting: Review
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 676

.... and opens our minds in ways we never thought possible. Will undoubtedly challenges others day after day, and that is why so many people were drawn to him out of sheer amazement. But, they weren't afraid to get to know him, and they all chose to let him into their lives in hopes that he would do the same. The problem is that he never knew how to do this. In turn, he couldn't fully enjoy life because he had no one to share it with. Like many others, Will needs someone to believe in him and appreciate who he is, and what he stands for. He needs someone to teach him an .....


News And Newspapers

.... gathered. And it is made on the basis of what the journalist thinks is important or what the journalist thinks the audience thinks is important" (Postman, 14). The Toronto Sun focuses on the audience that yearns for entertainment and adjuts its word selection and choice of articles to accommodate this need for entertainment. The glitz and glamour of today's celebrities provide a fantasy world in which the reader can escape. The Toronto Sun leaves no stone uncovered as it stays on top of celebrity issues to accommodate their audience ‘ the average Joe' with entertainme .....


King Lear: Suffering
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 473

.... to suicide, and it would have, except Gloucester was blind and couldn't see that there was no cliff to throw himself off of. His enemies didn't want to kill him, but they already did, internally. The internal death is the final stage of mental suffering, but there are many stages before the one must go through to get to that last stage. Many of these stages are shown in King Lear, as he breaks down from a powerful man to a crazy derelict, all because of someone close to him, that he trusted, stabbed him in the back. The family is part of your environment and so is the weath .....


Death Of A Salesman: The Tragedy Of One Man
Number of pages: 13 | Number of words: 3541

.... him." Willy Loman is bewildered by a capitalist system which drives it's men into frantic, all consuming dreams of success, doomed not only by their grandiosity but also their inherent contradictoriness. Willy's dreams of success are rooted in the concept of the "American Dream", which is the idea that this is a land of unlimited opportunity in which any ragamuffin can attain riches and any mother's son can become president (Hadomi 159). This concept of success is personified by two characters in the play: David Singleman and Ben Loman. The first an old sales man, David S .....


Oedipus Rex - Bliss In Ignorance
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 851

.... that life must be examined and reflected upon, known and discovered by each individual philosopher to better enrich life for all. Yet in terms of Sophoclean drama, specifically Oedipus Rex, this was meant in a vastly different way. The unexamined life was one that was in the dark, unknown as to what fate lied beyond every turn and irony of living. Oedipus, up to the point in which he heard the comment in the tavern in Corinth, lived an unexamined life. To Socrates, he was an unfulfilled man, one who deserved to know more, one who not complete. However, in a much less metaph .....


Hamlet's Odd Behavior
Number of pages: 10 | Number of words: 2512

.... hesitate? One must call into question what Hamlet holds to be true. If Hamlet’s given motivation for killing the king is legitimate, then Claudius should die at about Act 3. Because Hamlet’s actions do not correspond with his given reasoning, one is forced to look for an alternate explanation for Hamlet’s behavior. In doing so, one will come to the conclusion that Hamlet is driven by forces other than what is obvious to the reader, as well as Hamlet himself. Given this example, one must denounce the assumption that Hamlet is aware of the forces that motivate him, and unders .....


An Analysis Of A Doll's House
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 897

.... what her marriage actually is toward the end of the play, when she tells Torvald, "…our home has been nothing but a play- room. I've been your doll-wife here, just as at home I was Papa's doll- child. And the children have been my dolls in their turn. I liked it when you came and played with me, just as they liked it when I came and played with them. That's what our marriage has been Torvald." I think that it is at this point that Nora's world transforms from a "doll's house" into reality. After having finished this play, I think that Ibsen had chosen the perfect tit .....
