As You Like It: Grow Up, Oliver!
Words: 744 / Pages: 3

.... time to get back at his younger brother for being who he is. When he tries to have Charles kill him, this shows that Oliver is too much of a coward to do it himself. Another thought that comes to mind is that it is possible that Oliver knows that having his brother killled is unethical and wrong. Deep down I think that Oliver has a decent heart and is aware that he should not let his envy get the best of him. The reader may wonder why Oliver would be jealous of Orlando. Orlando is popular and strong, and smart. Oliver is unhappy and therefore cruel. In a monologue that Oliver addresses to the audience he says, "Yet he's gentle, never / scho .....


As You Like It: Rosalind As Ganymede
Words: 2367 / Pages: 9

.... singles her out as the only person in the play that has a level head on her shoulders, and he leaves it up to her to straighten everyone else out. This essay will explore what Shakespeare included in Rosalind’s character that makes her the only balanced person in the play, and it will also show how she balances the other characters out. The first action taken by Rosalind that indicates her balanced state is when Duke Frederick has banished her from his court, and she decides to leave disguised as a man. This action shows that even though she is female, she doesn’t feel the need to act feminine all of the time in order to be self-assu .....


Hamlet: Rosencrantz And Guildenstern
Words: 729 / Pages: 3

.... to something. Having obtained the throne through deceit and murder, he believes Hamlet capable of the same. While King Claudius is evil, he is not a fool and he would never have sent for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern if they were such close friends of Hamlet. First of all, The very fact that they undertake this task for the king is proof enough of their lack of love and loyalty toward Hamlet. Despite their actions, Prince Hamlet gives them the opportunity to show their loyalty by admitting what they were sent for and why. By showing so much reluctance, they show themselves to be allied with the king. Hamlet asks them to "be even and direct with me, .....


The Caretaker By Pinter: A Play Can Be Confrontational, Challenging And Disturbing To The Values And Assumptions Of An Audience. Discuss With Close
Words: 1946 / Pages: 8

.... to humanity. His theatre interrogates the truth of nature and realities of language and demonstrates that much of what the audience regards as fact is fiction as he explores the uncertainty of human existence. When an audience of the 1960's went to the theatre, it can generally be assumed that they had preconceived ideas about what they expected and what they are 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 .....


Review Of Musical Singin In The Rain
Words: 582 / Pages: 3

.... despises while they show a united, romantic front to their adoring public. After the successful showing, Don is forced to escape from his voracious fans by leaping into a passing car driven by Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds). She is amazed but plays it cool, pretending not to recognise Don and putting down the talents of movie actors. Although Kathy pretends to be a real stage actress, her abilities become obvious to Don when she leaps out of a cake at the after-show party. An even bigger upset occurs when studio owner R.F. Simpson (Millard Mitchell) shows a new talking picture, which is dismissed as a passing fad (commenting that Warner Brothe .....


Hamlet: Human Nature
Words: 709 / Pages: 3

.... his undying love. However, once Hamlet discovered the truth about his father’s planned murder he discovered that Ophelia’s father, Polonius was involved. In his outrage he ended the romance by saying: I have heard of your paintings, well enough. God hath given you one face, and you make yourselves another. You jig and amble and you [lisp,] you nickname God’s creatures and make your wantonness [your] ignorance. I say we will have no more marriage. (3.1.142-149) Knowing that Polonius was an accomplice in such a vicious act Hamlet did not want to betray his father by marrying into a sinful family. In agreement to this idea Hamlet also s .....


Hamlet: Second Grave Digger
Words: 756 / Pages: 3

.... is what I will have to live with. It all started with my parents, they were never really there for me as a child. I was born into a family of distaste and disfavor. I’ve only seen my father a couple times. He was always out at the taverns with the wenches. That’s how he met my mother, the beautiful harlot. She had to sell her body just to make ends meet. As soon as I was old enough to understand how life was for me, I went to work. At the age of 6 I was out on the streets offering my services to any whom would need them. I can still remember my first job cleaning up after horses. I would stay in the stables all day long digging up the fo .....


Antigone: Afterlife
Words: 1329 / Pages: 5

.... for their Gods, made statues to symbolize their Gods, and had a different God to explain things that we now say are an act of mother nature. It may seem rather foolish to us when we study their beliefs and compare them to modern day beliefs.I am sure the Greeks would have considered us to be heathens and put us to death for our ways and beliefs.I think Antigone thought her act was courageous and valid. I myself would not have risked my life to ensure a proper burial for anyone, whether it was in modern times or back then.To go against authority and break the laws given by the monarch was a plain senseless act. When someone is dead we now know the .....


A Midsummer Nights Dream: Demetrius' Pursuit Of Hermia
Words: 780 / Pages: 3

.... Hermia, Helena falls in love with Demetrius, and does what she can to make him fall him love with her. But he holds no interest. Oberon, King of the Fairies, sees Helena’s pain and orders Robin Goodfellow, a hobgoblin, to anoint Demetrius’ eyes with a love potion so that he will fall in love with Helena. The plan goes accordingly. Demetrius is pursuing Hermia and asking for her hand in marriage. But she declines for she is in love with another. Eugeus, Hermias father, demands that Theseus, the Duke of Athens, force the marriage upon his daughter. Eugeus explains that he will rid of her and “dispose of her, which shall be either to .....


Oedipus Rex: The Punishment Of The King
Words: 1163 / Pages: 5

.... murdered Laius, then banishment seems to be the only option. Death, in my mind, is not valid simply because of what it might do to the kingdom's people. Even though it seems that Oedipus has not been a particularly good monarch, in fact his only major accomplishment seems to be killing the Sphinx all those years ago, having a king put to death could have serious repercussions on the rest of the kingdom. So in the end, the only way to cure the plague and keep the kingdom stable seems to be the banishment of Oedipus. In this case, the question of whether or not he deserved to be punished seems irrelevant; Oedipus' only goal was to stop the plague an .....
