- 994: Midsummer Nights Dream
- As with every play we read this quarter, we started A Midsummer Night s Dream with only a text. Reading the script is the foundation of Shakespeare, and the least evolved of the ways that one can experience it. There is no one to interpret the words, no body ... school, or in a forest. My experience reading Shakepearean plays has shown me that reading is necessary and fundamental part of grasping the fullness of the works. I had wanted to read A Midsummer Night's Dream for quite some time. Besides being a play by Shakespeare, I believe my desire to do so came from seeing bits and pieces of it done in Hollywood movies like Dead Poet's Society. I didn't realize how much small exposures like! those could cause me to prejudge the actual text; after I had read the play for myself I was surprised at how much the ...
- 995: Compare And Contrast Essay Of

Courage, for example, is a mean between cowardice and thoughtless rashness. Intellectual virtues are not subject to this doctrine of the mean. Nevertheless, it seemed Aristotle argued for an elitist ethics: where what’s good or virtuous can be realized only by the mature male adult of the upper class, not by women, or children, or barbarians. It was noted in class that these may have been (non-Greeks ... the contemporary institution of slavery but tempered his acceptance by insisting that masters should not abuse their authority, since the interests of master and slave are the same.

- 997: A Doll's House & The House of Spirits: The Role of Women Has Changed Dramatically Within The Last Century
- A Doll's House & The House of Spirits: The Role of Women Has Changed Dramatically Within The Last Century The role of women has changed dramatically within the last century. The changing role has influenced the actions of many women. This change has been written about by many authors in many different settings and time periods.

First I will go elaborate on how Hamlet, at ... many literary folk believe that Hamlet suffered from a Oedipus complex.
