- 12801: Othello: Act 5 Analysis
- Othello: Act 5 Analysis Iago's intelligence causes the self destruction of Othello. He appears to be the most intelligent person in the play, Othello, by the way he acts and handles some situations. Iago is set to plan revenge on ... by telling lies to him, and these lies cause the destruction of Othello. Othello should have investigated on some of the outrageous things Iago has told him. Iago is simply just trying to gain Othello's trust. This is shown when Iago talks about killing Roderigo because he was saying bad things about Othello. "Nine or ten times I had thought t' have yerked him here under the ribs." (1:2, 4-6). The same thing happens again, this time about Cassio. "With her - on her - what you will." (4:1, 42). Iago tells Othello about ...
- 12802: Hamlet: Horatio - A Man of Thought, Fortinbras - A Man of Action
- ... a man of thought. The other kind of man is represented by Fortinbras, a man of action. Hamlet is the character that manages to be both, thought and action. Hamlet failed to avenge his father's death because he was both. According to Shakespeare in the play Hamlet, a man could not succeed if ge was both action and thought. The most evident man of thought in the play was Horatio ... things in a logical manner. Horatio sees the ghost and Hamlet says " There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy" (1.5.166-168). This reveals Horatio's attitude to the audience. It shows that Horatio only believes in what scholars say. Study is his only purpose I life. He is admired and used by others for his knowledge, The audience becomes aware ... consequences of his actions. The king is making use of these characteristics when he says "we have to writ to Norway, uncle of young FortinbrasWho impotent and bed-rid, scarcely hears of his nephew's purpose to suppress his further gait" (1.2.29-32). In this quote the king has stopped Fortinbras' invasion of Denmark. The king was able to do this because Fortinbras didn't consider what ...
- 12803: Animal Farm 7
- Alvin Kernan s observation that the beast fable is an effective literary tool is quite true. Storytellers have used beast fables since the story was invented. Something that has remained popular for so long must be somewhat effective. The representation of people as animals reduces their characters to the most basic stereotypes. The reader doesn t have to waste time in trying to figure out the character s personalities. In short, their inside is represented on the outside by their own physical being. One of the first and most obvious of Orwell s stereotypes is exemplified by the pigs. They represent the ...
- 12804: Macbeth: Choices
- ... when Macbeth murders Duncan. After he does it he regrets it and is afraid to think about it. This is shown in the quote: I am afraid to think what I've done; look on't again I dare not./(50- 51, Scene 2, Act 2) Another example is after Macbeth had Banquo killed and he sees Banquo's ghost at the table. He goes crazy and starts yelling at the ghost and he realizes that he cannot change what he has done so he tries to ignore it. That same scene Lady Macbeth says: Things without all remedy should be without regard: what's done is done./(11-12, Scene 2, Act 3) These examples show how Macbeth cannot escape the choices he made. Macduff's allegiance to the country of Scotland leads to consequences which he cannot ...
- 12805: How Employees Affect Consumer Behavior
- ... your employees. They are like ambassadors representing the United States when the president can not be there in person. You need them to act on your behalf when dealing with customers. If the customers aren't treated well once in your store or business, what good does it do to use marketing to get them into your store or business. You also have the problem of each customer who was treated poorly, telling other people about their bad experience with your company. This might not seem like a big deal, but it is and it's even worse when people are telling others how great your competitor treated them. I've had a few experiences where I have felt that I haven't been treated properly or fairly by store employees. Most of the time I've been able to find another person to help solve my problem and I was able to walk away a satisfied ...
- 12806: Wages For Youth Workers Are To
- I don t agree that wages for youth workers are too low. I think so because teenagers don t need plenty of money because they usually live with their parents and it learns them that it takes a lot of work to earn a little. The youth of today can already be happy that they get money for what they are doing because earlier this century children always used to help older people or their own parents with their jobs. Teenagers don t get paid as much as adults do because they simply don t need the money. Adults work to be able to live a life and not to buy CD s, books, piercings and other ...
- 12807: Around The World In Eighty Day
- ... his servant Passepartout use every means of transportation possible such as steamers, railways, carriages, yachts, trading-vessels, sledges, and even an elephant. The protagonist in Around the World in Eighty Days is Phileas Fogg. Fogg s most important character quality is his determination to succeed. After Fogg read the article in the paper about how it is possible to voyage the world in eighty days Fogg knew he could prove it ... burning funeral pyre and being constantly followed and spied on by a detective named Mr. Fix. One important decision Fogg makes is when he got to a train station they told him that he couldn t go on the train for another month. He was terrified but he did not panic. He saw an elephant in town and paid an Indian a considerable amount of money to travel to the next train station. Passepartout said of the price Good Heaven, two thousand for an elephant! (Page 41). Fogg s intelligence during the voyage got considerably better as his traveling techniques got better. He knew that in order to make the trip on time he must not waste any time at all and gain ...
- 12808: Personal Impacts Of Death
- ... Odd as it sounds, there can be little question that some deaths are better than others. People cross-culturally have always made invidious distinctions between good deaths and bad. Compare, for instance, crooner Bing Crosby's sudden death following eighteen rounds of his beloved golf with the slow motion, painful expiration of an eighty-year-old diabetic. Bedridden following the amputation of his leg, the old man eventually began slipping in ... within institutional settings, where often life is structured for the convenience of staff and where residents suffer both physical and psychological pain in their depersonalization. They also involve fears of being victims of advanced Alzheimer's Disease: being socially dead and yet biologically alive. In sum, the dreaded liminality between the worlds of the living and the dead have historically shifted from the period after death to the period preceding it ... the lessons of their existence. Instead, the dying process now too often features silence or diversion. However, not surprisingly in our service-oriented economy, there are challenges to this medicalized, depersonalizing cultural route toward life's conclusion SOCIALIZATIONS FOR DEATH Like those at the dawn of human species, young children understand neither the inevitability of their own mortality nor its finality. Death fears must be learned. Paralleling the attempts of ...
- 12809: Satires In Huckleberry Finn
- ... throughout the novel. Many words the book contains are full of vivid abhorrence towards black slaves. Every single line talks about how white people despise and refuse to accept the black race. Answering Aunt Sally's question about whether or not anyone is hurt Huck answers, "no mum, just killed a nigger."(Twain 213) This is the one and only acceptable way to talk about black people in the "white" society. In addition to this, not only is the black people treated differently from the white, they are also considered to be one's property. "He is the only property I have," (Twain 122) Huck is perforced to say in order to save Jim. This is the only way to get through without the essence of suspicions. Though Huck ... is another human weakness Twain satirizes in his novel, constantly accentuating the drunk and violent father of Huck in a very negative manner. "I was just about to go and vote myself if I warn't too drunk to get there,"(Twain 27) said Pap with a racist remark, implying the fact that he will never vote anyway just because the government let one very intelligent black professor vote. Even ...
- 12810: The Hundred Years War
- ... playing a small role for the French. Although the conflict lasted over a century the war was broken intermittently by treaties and truces. (Goubert) There were more stalemates than actual battles. (Froissart) Actual fighting didn't brake out until the mid 1300's but the conflict stemmed way back to 1066. (Encarta) England held areas of France that the English used in exchange for service and loyalty to the king of France. These areas soon dwindled until very ... agreed to take an oath of homage to Philip VI, but after conflicts in Guyenne Edward III contested the validity of his declaration of homage towards the King of France since the declaration of Edward's homage was made when he was still a minor.
