The Changing Role In Viola/Cesario In The Twelveth Night
... Orsino sees Cesario, as a young squire just starting out in the world,
much like himself as a young, spry lad, so he has a tendency to be more
willing to unload onto her with his troubles and sorrows, seeking a
companion with which to share and to teach. Thus, Viola grows in her male
disguise to get a better feeling for his inner self, not the self that he
shows to the public, or would reveal and share with Viola in her true
female self, but rather his secret self, as he believes he shares with a
peer. So, she grows to love him. But, Orsino's motivation is actually not
love for Viola, but rather he seems to be in love with love itself. His
entire wor ...

Macbeth: Blood Will Have Blood
... in this great tragedy of Macbeth.
Another well known quotation that was said by Macbeth is, "I will have blood, they say; blood will have blood." (3.4.151) This was said by Macbeth, as he was having one of his many mental breakdowns. These breakdowns were caused by just this issue of a bloody play. Macbeth created the bloodlines, and now he must suffer the consequences.
"Out damned spot, out, I say!", (5.1.37) said by Lady Macbeth as she is being watched by the physic doctor and the gentlewoman. They both watch as Lady Macbeth has a mental breakdown of conscious, just like Macbeth is having. She is thinking as though she has gotten blood on her, also, when it ...

... surprise one night,
Blanche found her lover in bed with another man. She tried to pretend that
nothing had happened. However, she was unable to hold what she saw inside, and
told Allan "I saw, I know, you disgust me…"( p.96). To Allan, Blanche seemed to
be a person who accepted him for who he was in a society where homosexuals are
discriminated against. What Blanche said completely devastated Allan and he
found no reason to continue living. Although Blanche had no intentions of
hurting Allan, enough damage was done to prompt Allan to shoot himself, his mind
and body destroyed.
The harsh treatment dealt by Mitch to Blanche near the end of the play is

The Crucible: Witchcraft
... them for doing weird things. There were some girls
that would do a lot of weird things in the town. For example when Abigail
drank the blood, people thought that she was a witch so they would accuse
her of being a witch. The townspeople accused people of being a witch
mostly because of this reason.
Another big reason that someone would be a witch is that they did
not like that person or they were just scared of them. Sometimes if you saw
someone walking and they looked funny or just doing something bad you can
say that they are a witch. You could of also said that someone was a witch
if they were not praying at all. Then if you were accused of being ...

Hamlet - The "Real" Tragedy
... Lord Chamberlain, it is his duty to obey the king and queen’s wishes and it is this loyalty that eventually proves to be fatal for him. An example of hoe Polonius’ innocent involvement with the royalty results in his death can be found at the beginning of Act III, scene iv, when Hamlet stabs him while he is hiding behind the arras in Gertude’s room.

This makes Polonius’ death a tragedy.
The next member of Polonius’ family to die is his daughter Ophelia. Ophelia’s death is tragic because ...

... guts pulled out of his body. It also with the expressional shots of the people at first giving you a sort of pissed off emotion when the laugh and spit at him. Then when they see his devotion to being free they were begging him to plead mercy to the King of England to see him suffer no more.
When you see the close ups of William Wallace you can actually see the devotion he gave to his wife and to his country of Scotland. He holds his wife’s marriage cloth to him in his hands at all times to show it to her. He shows his devotion to his country by standing up taking the worst punishment and the scream of FREEDOM…

The Supernatural In King Lear
... the treacheries of the evil characters.
Gloucester is a character in the play who firmly believed that man’s fate has supernatural properties that are controlled or reflected by the heaven and stars:
These late eclipses in the sun and moon
Portend us to no good. Though the wisdom of
nature can reason it thus and thus, yet nature finds
itself scourged by the sequent events.
(Act 1, Sc. 2, 109 - 113)
This is proclaimed by Gloucester as he is told by Edmund of Edgar’s supposedly treacherous plot to remove him from power. Gloucester’s trust in Edgar faltered as a result of Lear’s irrational banishment of Cordelia and Kent, coupled with recent anomalies in t ...

... did.
Much to Jonathan's surprise , the aunts killed just as many men without the
plastic surgery , without the running , they just sat right there .
"Charge…" we hear as Teddy Brewster runs up the stairs.
This caracter brings out the most comedy in the picture. Teddy is the only
character in the movie that proves to be insane in my opinion. Any man who
thinks he is a dead president (TDR) has to have some problems.
The plot unfolds when Mortimer Brewster finds out about his
aunts secret after finding a present in the window seat . Mortimer panics
and runs all over trying to take care of his aunts and keep them safe at
the same time.
Most of the time in this m ...

Julius Caesar: The Corruption Of Power
... the have done. Flavius and Marullus removed ornaments
from Caesar’s statues as a way to prevent Caesar from becoming a tyrant and
to show their anti-Caesar sentiments. Caesar put the two men “to silence”
or to death. This showed how he did not tolerate any nonsense. He did
not like opposition or anyone questioning him, even though Flavius and
Marullus had a right to express their beliefs. Caesar also presents his
despotic attitude, when Metellus Cimber begs him to reverse his brother’s
banishment. Caesar selfishly replied that this request “might fire the
blood of ordinary men…know, Caesar doth not wrong…”. He refers to himself
in the third person, and consider ...
