Words: 1892 / Pages: 7 .... both theoretical and empirical tests and has shown to be an accurate model of interest group formation.
Before an in-depth analysis of the by-product theory one must have a firm grasp of the assumptions underlying it, to which groups it applies, and the broad conceptual ideas the theory entails. The most important underlying assumption of the by-product theory is the rationality of man that is, people maximize benefits while minimizing costs.

Words: 584 / Pages: 3 .... not seem a bit intimidated by the spirits she is calling. Her tone of voice suggests she is almost commanding the spirits to help her carry out her plan. William Shakespeare intentionally attached this phrase in the beginning of the sentence, so that the reader sees Lady Macbeth as more of an evil character, which in her own way conjures evil spirits.
In the first part of the second line Lady Macbeth says, “That tend on mortal thought.” Literally, it means that she wants the evil spirits that wait on thoughts of murder or death to come to her. This phrase foreshadows the many deaths that await us by the end of the novel. By mentioning the .....

Branagh’s Henry V: An Example Of Pluralistic Shakespeare
Words: 845 / Pages: 4 .... prologue of the first act. “Can this cock-pit hold the vasty fields of France? Or may we cram within this wooden O the very casques that did affright the air at Agincourt?” (11-14) Branagh chooses to display his single-man chorus walking through a torn-down theater while speaking these words. I do not think he does this to imply the theater is dead, or to say that only film can portray truth in today’s image-based society.

Shakespeare's success came from the f .....
