Hamlet: Fate
.... killer. Characters of the play become
unsure of their intentions due to the odd twists of fortune that they are
dealt.
Characters in the play that were so sure of their decisions became
uncertain. This uncertainty arises when the plans of characters are somehow
altered. The alterations change the fate of many characters. Polonius was
killed in the wake of Hamlet's plan to find his father's killer. Hamlet had
no intention to kill anyone that did not deserve it. It was by chance that
Polonius was in the chamber of the queen when Hamlet arrived. Polonius hid
behind the curtain and was killed with a thrust of a dagger. "Time is ou .....

done, and, unable to believe that he did this of his own will, cries out
that he is fortune's fool (III, I, 135).
While many people may say that Romeo's grief caused him to kill
Tybalt, this still places no responsibility on fate. Romeo, being a
peaceful individual, should hav .....

it was the ugliest thing the doctor had laid his eyes upon. Unlike the
movies, the monster was very nimble and could do anything an actual living
human could. The monster chased after Victor in the wastelands to exact
his revenge for his being. Nobody would love or care for him so he decided
to kill Victor as an act of revenge.

all the T.V. shows and movies. He was able to read books and talk like any
other human. The monster composed poetry which was very beautiful. .....

Television Regulation: Government Vs. Parents
.... likely that
he/she will view a program that is unsuitable for their age.
While television can be a negative force, it can also be very
positive if used correctly. There are many programs on television today
that are both educational and entertaining. There is quality programming
on television already but many people choose not to explore it.
Since we live in such a diverse country, I do not feel the
government should control what we do or do not watch. Government approval
does not necessarily mean quality programming. In the long run, I feel
parents know what is best for their children.

Grunge Literature
.... Almost Terminal New York Adventure which has just been released.
The River Ophelia was a 'heavy duty' novel. Confronting, repetitive and
relentless in its portrayal of an obsessive, self-abusive woman called
'Justine' and her quest for love. It has been hounded as anti-feminist
because it portrays women as weak, pathetic victims of themselves as much
as of the patriarchy yet it writes under the guise of sexual reclamation,
Justine masturbates at least once a chapter and the novel drips with an
amazing variety of bodily fluids.
This could be classified as a political novel because of the way it
involves the readers in .....

Hamlet: A Review
.... many excuses for not acting.
The explanations are valid, and the only peculiar fact is that
Hamlet has got so many reasons for waiting - a different one each time.
Furthermore, it is characteristic in Hamlet that he only receives problems
when he at last seizes the sword. He is convinced that he has nailed his
villainous uncle Claudius, when he kills a person who is spying on him
while he is talking seriously to his mother. However, the "rat" behind the
tapestry is not the king himself, only his loyal henchman Polonius, who, in
addition, is the father of two people who are close to Hamlet: his friend
Laertes, and his belo .....

Hamlet: Many Interpretations
.... renound interpretations of Hamlet, two major conclusions can
be made. First, Shakespeare's tragedy is a work of surpassing interest and
genius, and the tragic hero is universally attractive and fascinating.
Second, only the naive will start with the assumption that there is one
obvious interpretation of the play and that the critics, not Shakespeare,
have introduced complexities into it. It would be nice to present a simple,
direct interpretation based upon a major generalization and to ignore
passages in the play which do not fit into the argument. But such a
presentation would not do justice to a great play or help the reade .....

For instance when the prince started calling Falstaf, “This bed-presser,
this horse-back-breaker, this huge hill of flesh”. Then Falstaf came back
