Much Ado About Nothing
Words: 617 / Pages: 3 .... thought that marriage led to the trapping of men. When he heard about Claudio getting married, Benedick thought that Claudio was crazy, because Benedick felt that marriage was going to change the way Claudio lived. Benedick was also very stubborn. He never wanted to give into other people's ideas, and that was why he didn't want to give into the idea that marriage could be a good thing in a person's life.

A Letter To Shakespeare
Words: 611 / Pages: 3 .... the language here could use some revision. For example, when Juliet
says, "Romeo, Romeo, where for art thou Romeo?", I think it would be much better
if she simply said something to the affect of "Romeo, where are you?" since that
is practically all she is saying. And at the end of the balcony scene, instead
of Juliet saying "Parting is such sweet sorrow," although that is very dramatic,
she could just say something like, "I wish you didn't have to go so soon."
Another part that I noticed was in the scene where Mercutio was
insulting Tybalt, right before they fought in the streets of Verona. Mercutio
had called Tybalt "prince of cats" since Tybalt .....

Words: 1640 / Pages: 6 .... as women. They have been put under too much
pressure from society and especially men. Both Thelma and Louise feel a need to
change their position in society and they do it by changing the way they
communicate. This change in communication between men and women causes the
women to take on a stronger and more direct language which also included robbery
and murder. They change from the traditional female forms of communication to a
more masculine form of communication. Once they change, the men who they come
into contact with change the way they communicate as well, or they face serious
consequences. This demonstrates the fact that men and women .....

Comparison Of Book And Movie "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest"
Words: 682 / Pages: 3 .... to be deaf and
dumb. Much of the understanding and respect is lost in the transition between
book and movie. In the book, Bromden has flashbacks to his childhood, lighting
on significant points in his childhood. His background is never even brushed
upon in the movie. Of course it would have been nearly impossible to tell of
Bromdens life in a movie, much less show the world from his point of view as in
the book. Bromden is still a very interesting character but the real puzzle to
his problems is lost.
McMurphy is a very sly, cunning man. He knows how to play his game and
does it well. In the book as McMurphy progresses, he goes through ma .....

Motifs Of Birds In Macbeth
Words: 469 / Pages: 2 .... raven is an appropriate bird for Lady Macbeth to mention. It is not a bird of spring, nor does it have a beautiful song. It is an omen of death and evil. Ravens are frequent fixtures in gothic literature.
The owl is discussed by the old man who talks to Ross the day after Duncan was killed. The death of Duncan is a perverted act, just as the death of the falcon is considered unnatural. "'Tis unatural/Even like the deed that's done. On Tuesday last a falcon, towering in her pride of place,/was by amousing owl hawked at and killed." The owl is a bird that typically symbolizes wisdom but in this case the mousing owl has killed a larger predato .....

American public saw this war going nowhere. An explanation given as to why
we were unable to withdraw our .....
