Let be so! Thy truth then be thy dower!
For, by the sacred radiance of the sun,
The mysteries of Hecate and the night;
By all the operation of the orbs
From whom we do exist and cease to be;
Here I disclaim all my paternal care,
Propinquity and property of blood,
And as a stranger to my heart and me
Hold thee from this for ever. The barbarous Scythian,
Or he that makes his generation messes
To gorge his appetite, shall to my bosom
Be as well neighboured, pitied, and relieved,
As .....

Macbeth Persona

certain measure in my opinion. He must be no more important than any other man under
God, but he must also be able to fill the duty that no other is qualified for. I have a list of
specific qualities that such a man must posses if he wishes to be my king, here in this issue

The man who is to be king must be both loved and respected by the people. He must
do what he can to please them but not give in to shameless gimmicks to appear that h .....

Pride And Prejudice
.... the reason of love is Jane and Mr. Bingley. These two characters were attracted to each other from the very beginning, and are the only characters in the novel that truly married out of a devout love for each other. Darcy and Elizabeth did marry for this reason, but their relationship sprouted from hatred. The fact that only one couple in the novel married for love proves how rare that occasion really was.
Wealth, convenience, and sometimes even love, are three reasons for marriage in nearly every nov .....

Since cigarettes are the leading cause of preventable deaths in the United States, the act of smoking should be seen as the same as homicide. Although it takes longer to kill a person by smoking, it will eventua .....

Midsummer Nights Dream

performance at the CalPoly theatre also carried !with it a very
different feel less intense, more child-like and sweet with nearly the
same words. Reading also affects our experience in that without the
text, we would most likely not be able to enjoy Shakespeare at all;
having the text makes Shakespeare widely accessible (available for free
on the web) to all that desire it. Once the script is obtained, anyone
can perform Shakespeare even everyday, non-actor citi .....

Huck Finn Review

from each character’s fraud that moves the story along. With out the suspense the
plot would be dull.
Every person who endulges in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn will
commend the story as exceptional literature. The humor and precise depiction of the
time, life, place, and people will all contribute to this conclusion. The story is “well
gotten up” and “fun.”

Panopticism
.... of mental forces (those who fear or have a certain curiosity) shapes who the individual becomes within the society. According to this passage, Focault gives support to the basic argument concerning the panopticon, that communication is key to knowledge. Within the panopticon, there is no communication among the prisoners or those who view them. This becomes another aspect of power; it underlies the main idea of separation and communication as a form of shaping forces in the panopticon.
The first phras .....

Othello
.... whereas, we employ daylight to define victory or goodness in the play. We have known blood to all of us to represent life, death and often injury. Blood is an essential part of life and without blood, we could not live. This is known to everyone, and because of this, when Shakespeare uses the imagery of blood to represent treason, guilt, murder and death. We have easily understood it and fits in perfectly with the ideas we have of blood. Therefore, this essay weighs blood to the most important imagery .....

Moreover if the subjects within the fiction of Julius Caesar are radically unstable by virtue of their representations then so is the theatre whose function is to stage this instability. This means that Julius Caesar fits within this essay’s definitions of Shakespeare’s work reflecting ar .....
