Shakespeare's Hamlet: Investigating Hamlet's Insanity
.... is; I know not 'seems.'
'Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother,
Nor customary suits of solemn black,
Nor windy suspiration of forced breath,
No, nor the fruitful river in the eye,
Nor the dejected 'havior of the visage,
Together with all forms, moods, shapes of grief,
That can denote me truly: these indeed seem,
For they are actions that a man might play:
But I have that within which passeth show;
These but the t .....

Review Of Shaw Shank Redemption
.... night he was
outside the guy's house while Andy's wife was in with him. The next day
came and the two bodies were found dead in each other's arms with bullet
wounds. All of the evidence pointed to Andy and he went on trial. The
judge asked him what he had done with the gun that he had bought. Andy
said that he had thrown it over the bridge after he had left the house, but
he hadn't been the one that shot them. He told the judge that he just left
before he did anything stupid and just threw the gun a .....

Romeo And Juliet: A Review
.... is sarcastic to another. One of the best examples of this is
when Capulet asks Lady Capulet for a sword and she replies “A crutch, a
crutch! Why call you for a sword?” In this line the mockery of Capulet is
obvious and appealing to the audience as it is direct.
Shakespeare is known to be fond of puns and uses them quite
regularly but he doesn't use them as often as the Elizabethan audience
expected him to. Shakespeare starts of the play with a lot of humour, with
the conversation between Samp .....

Macbeth: The Use Of The Classical Tragic Mold In Character Development
.... but 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 st .....

Movie: Good Will Hunting
.... us 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

Othello The "Mad" Moor
.... battles
and the hardships of war wear a man down. The stresses of everyday things
at work get to us but the stresses of battle must be and uncountable times
worse. Othello seemed to be and was mentioned as a good leader with the
respect of the Duke. The stresses of being a black man leading an army of
white soldiers that might respect you as a leader but might not respect you
as a human would affect you also.
Othello seemed to handle the stresses of war just fine but with the
jealousy ad .....

Julius Caesar: Brutus
.... when Portia killed her self. He simply drank wine to get
ride of the pain and told Cassius to never speak of his wife again.
“Lucius a bowl of wine!
I did not think you could have been so angry,
O Cassius, I am sick of many griefs.
Of your philosophy you make no use
If you give place to accidental evils.
No man bears sorrow better. Portia is dead.
Ha! Portia!
She is dead.
How ‘scaped I killing when I crossed you so?

Death Of A Salesman: Willy Lowman's Escape
.... into a time when things were better for his family. It
is not uncommon for one to think of better times at low points in their
life in order to cheer themselves up so that they are able to deal with the
problems they encounter, but Willy Lowman takes it one step further. His
refusal to accept reality is so strong that in his mind he is transported
back in time to relive one of the happier days of his life. It was a time
when no one argued, Willy and Linda were younger, the financial situation
was les .....

Julius Caesar: Loyalty
.... Caesar would have reigned for years. If the people of Rome would
have remained loyal to Caesar perhaps a war would not have occurred, in
fact, it most certainly would not have. After the death, the angry mob
should have put the conspirators to death, not let them toy with their
minds as they would a five year old. The mob, like a great many people,
believe what is easiest to hear. In the mob of people did loyalty exist?
Doubtful, little if any. What coexisted in the crowd with that little
loyal .....

Hamlet: Hamlet's Sanity
.... he remains sharp and credible. “[Hamlet]
concocts this state of madness...his intellect remains clear, his discourse
sound and comprehensive,” (Harris, p. 129).
Hamlet reveals to his friends and his mother of his plans to
pretend act insane. He tells Horatio that he is going to "feign madness,"
and that if Horatio notices any strange behavior from Hamlet, it is because
he is putting on an act. (I, v). Hamlet also tells his mother that he is
not mad, "but mad in craft." (III, iv). In addition to his .....

He is too young to choose the right road of his next step. He is also
without enough ability to make a right decision about his future. Thus, his
facial expression is scared because he never known which ways he will go
next and he will be soon to face his future. The text below the picture
says if we blink our eyes and our kid will be grow-up soon. It implies if
we are being the parents of our kid, we have a responsibility to pla .....

MacBeth: Everyone Has At Least One Flaw
.... a battle, in which many lost their lives, for the
sake of greed, and deserved to die because of his flaw.
Duncan was the King of England, and was murdered by MacBeth. He
was murdered, because in order for MacBeth to fulfill his plan and become
king, Duncan would have to die. Duncan's fatal flaw was that he was too
trusting. For example, he thought that none of his friends could really be
enemies. If Duncan was more careful about his safety at MacBeth's castle,
he may have had a chance to survive. Bu .....

single influence on the public.” (Hallin 106) So people trusted what
reporters like Walter Cronkite were telling them. They believed it when
NBC journalists told them things like, “ the Marines are so bogged down in
Hue that nobody will predict when the battle would end…more than 500
marines have been wounded and over 100 dead since the in Hue began.” (Klein
51) Don't get the wrong idea though, these things .....

The Crucible: Miller's McCarthynistic Idea
.... home. This is an example of a common communistic society.
Through out the whole play, women are being accused of witchcraft.
A man could have never been accused of witchcraft in those days. Men were
the dominant gender. Tituba is a black servant who was spotted in the woods
supposedly practicing witchcraft. She is blamed for the crime, probably
because she is a servant of the lower class. But as the play goes on, a
more classless society comes into effect. That is when the women of the
upper cla .....
