A Clockwork Orange: Review Of Book And Firm Version
.... whose last name is not mentioned in the book, is a violent,
aggressive teenager of fifteen, who is the leader of a four-person gang. He
truly enjoys violence, reveling in the sight of blood or weapons. Alex's love
of hate is not simply a rebellious emotion, but as he explains, it is his very
nature, and he could not change it if he wanted to. Despite his passion for
what most see as ugly and disgusting, Alex does have a great appreciation for
classical music, especially Beethoven.
Alex's main conflict .....

A Doll's House: Theme Of Emancipation Of A Woman
.... me alone. I don't want
all this", Torvald asks "Aren't I your husband?". By saying this, he is
implying that one of Nora's duties as his wife is to physically pleasure him at
his command. Torvald also does not trust Nora with money, which exemplifies
Torvald's treating Nora as a child. On the rare occasion when Torvald gives
Nora some money, he is concerned that she will waste it on candy and pastry; in
modern times, this would be comparable to Macauly Culkin being given money, then
buying things .....

Advertising, What Is It ?
.... my
opinion, I don't think advertising is necessary because we can live with less
products. It might even be better with no advertisements because T.V shows and
basketball games would be on continuously without any commercial interruptions.
For example, my advertisement is advertising Reebok, but I don't need it, I can
live with slippers or nothing at all; nevertheless, wearing a pair of Reebok
shoe would be more comfortable.
I think advertising is the right to choose. When something is

Creative Writing Of Hamlet
.... presence was like another sun. He seemed to
glow as he spoke to me. He said, "Hammy, I will be away for a while. I want
you to watch mommy, and guard our fortress from invaders. Take this. It will
help you be strong." He gave me a small gold dagger. He left that afternoon
and I knew he wouldn't be back for a long time.
Things carried on as usual. I ran around the castle playing and
shirking any responsibility that I had. One day I was playing hide-and-go-seek
with Laertes and the other kids. I .....

Essay On Impulsiveness In Romeo & Juliet
.... endure him” and Capulet told him emphatically “he shall be
endur'd”(pg. 57, Lines 77 & 78). In this scene Capulet prevented a huge
Montegue and Capulet confrontation by thinking first and not doing the impulsive
suggested by Tybalt. Through thinking these actions through, problems were
prevented.
However, Capulet was at times, a very rash person, and that lead to much
of the misfortune in this play. Hours after Romeo killed Tybalt, Capulet acted
on haste in Act III, Scene 4 and told Paris “I will make .....

not in the best of health, Doc went to help Wyatt out.
Another type of friendship is the one that came between John Oakhurst
and young Tom Simson in the story of The Outcast of Poker Flat. In this
camaraderie the two men were in a poker game and young Simson lost all of his
money to Oakhurst. After the game Oakhurst pulled him aside and gave him his

Analysis Of Witches In Macbeth
.... as
hesitant if the idea to kill Duncan came from his head without the witches help.
I say this because when you reason things out by yourself you tend to now what
is right and what is wrong, a conscience. But with the outside influence from
the witches he thinks that that is his destiny and he must do everything to
fulfill it.
What the witches say in the beginning is what influences the entire plot.
Macbeth hears these words and then tries to make them happen because he
listened to the witches and thin .....

Analysis Of Advertisements For Two Different Things
.... the top of the
page accompanied by the words: `Size Matters". This leads the reader to ponder
the meaning of this rather unusual phrase and to further read the smaller
print. Here, the reader encounters an irregular font of different sizes to
accentuate certain words. While this may be annoying to many, its overall
purpose is to create a lively playful environment through the usage of fonts.
This, of course, is an attempt to appeal to a younger gaming audience. On the
other hand, the `Microsoft .....

Shylock Is The Villian In Shakespeare's Merchant Of Venice
.... want revenge for the loss of his daughter
through the fulfillment of the bond. In court Shylock is defeated because of
his selfishness.
Shakespeare also shows the human qualities of Shylock throughout the
play. Shakespeare brings out these human qualities by causing us to feel
sympathy for him. After the loss of his daughter Shylock ran through the
streets crying “My daughter! O my ducats! O my daughter!” as children followed
him, mocking him. This causes us to feel sympathy for Shylock, even tho .....

Tragedy In Oedipus Rex
.... and all the
other characters in the story realize that Oedipus actually did murder Laius
and that Jocasta is indeed his mother as well as his wife. This occurs rather
quickly, very close to the end of the play.
The audience sees this coming long before it actually does, however. In one
of the passages of Oedipus speaking with Jocasta, just about everything is
spelled out for us. Jocasta speaks of Laius leaving the castle with just a few
servants and his being killed where three roads meet. Oedipus .....

Anti-Semitism In The Merchant Of Venice
.... for racism to grow, the play provides a forum for anti-racism
discussion, if all proper steps are taken. When I say if all proper steps are
taken, I am referring to having this play taught by a teacher, who can explain
the plays meaning in it's fullest so that the students do not miss any important
points from it.
Another point that may have been missed when the presentation was made to
the school board to ban the material from being taught inside the school system
was that everyone is bad in the p .....

Antigone And Ismene

the wisdom of her sisters plan to break the law and bury Polyneices, Ismene
argues:
We who are women should not contend with men;
we who are weak are ruled by the stronger, so that
we must obey....(346)
Once again Ismene's words clearly state her weak, feminine character and
helplessness within her own dimensions. Antigone, not happy with her sisters
response chides her sister for not participating in her crime and for her
passivity, saying, " Set your own life .....

going to gain from the theatrical experience. The traditional attitudes towards
theatre and the conventions of realist drama are disrupted by Pinter. This
confronts the assumptions and values of the audience, an experience which would
be disconcerting and frightening to many.
Pinter divorces and exposes society's codes, institutions and human relations.
Throughout the play the audience is rarely comfortable. This disruption is
established from the outset of the play when Mick, a .....
