Then he let out ”a sigh so piteous and profound as it did seem to shatter all his bulk and end his being.” (2.1.106) After that incident, Polonius believes, that Hamlet's madness “is the very ecstasy of love.”(2.1.115) Claudius is convinced, however, that that is not the case.

... excessive imagination, irrationality, madness, etc.) prevents him from seizing control of the world Claudius has created. His death closes the play, but only after he experiences and expresses illuminations about human life and death. Hamlet begins after Hamlet's father has died. This has casted an unwanted and heavy cloud upon Hamlet's soul. Throughout the play Hamlet learns that his father's death was no mistake, but it was Hamlet's uncle's plan to murder him. This, of course, throws a much larger burden on Hamlet's hands and the thirty year old prince becomes insane. Hamlet then seeks revenge. A revenge tragedy is a bloody, violent play dramatizing a detai ...

... be in total control of the game and her life. This makes sense since the magazine the ad appears in is geared towards teenage girls. She sits in a somewhat sensual pose, leaning forward, with a look of confidence and achievement on her face. She obviously knows that her hand is a winner, and that her companion will soon be without even his shoes. On the table are two glasses of milk. This is one of the most powerful images in the ad. I believe they are there to counteract the sexual overtones and idea of risk-taking in the ad. Milk is included as if to say, "Even though these two young people are probably going to have sex when the game is finished, they are ...

... where put there for a reason that most readers over look. There is a reason that the company chose to use all of the different races, to show cultural diversity, and that the company isn't racist or other wise they are open to everyone and every race. They also show that they make make-up for all skin tones where as other companies just have make-up for a few skin tones. There are many questions you can ask about this advertisement by just looking at it because they don't show a lot of things in it. For example, how do we know that the girls are wearing this kind of make-up? Just because it said what kind of make-up and the names of each girl in the corner, doe ...

... He can not tell anyone and it destroys his marriage. John confesses to lechery with Abigail and he also confesses to being a witch. It was not easy for John to do that.

... within which passeth show, / These but the trappings and the suits of woe,” is used by Hamlet to mock his mother for her lack of grief for his father, her dead husband. At this point in the speech, Hamlet may merely mean that his grief for his father is genuine, but “passeth show” may also mean that he has some sort of feeling that can’t be shown by “the trappings and suits of woe” --his black clothing and cloudy face. These feelings that may very well be hidden from his own conscious are - what I believe - a truth to his indecisiveness on anything he attempts.
