Hamlet: Emotions Of Despair, Sadness, Anger, And Inner Peace
.... the play. Initially, the only cause of Hamlet's sorrow is his
father's death. However, after reading Act 1, scene 2, we see in Hamlet's
asides that another source of his melancholy is his mother's hasty marriage
to Claudius, the new king of Denmark. Further, when Queen Gertrude asks her
son why his father's death "seems" so important, he replies, "Seems, madam?
Nay it is. I know not 'seems'." In addition, Shakespeare reveals another
source of sadness; now Hamlet is alone, with the most loved character in
his life, Ophelia, rejecting him. This cause is well brought out in
Hamlet's soliloquy in which he states; "Now I am alone. O, .....

Advertising Strategy
.... week as
opposed to later in the week. The target audience I plan to promote to
will be identified later.
On Wednesday, again two people will run off 300 ads and will be
prepared to distribute 200 of them on the following day. Thursday will be
the day that the store will be closed from 3-5 because I think in the
essence of time that everyone present on this day will play a part in
distribution the ads. I highly recommend that we approach the
Downtown/metro area on this day. I site two reasons for the day and time.
One, because everyone will be at work during 3-5, thus, their cars will be
parked in the parking garages. Out of .....

Dramatic Irony And Characters In Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet
.... about the girl he was so sad about and Juliet replaces his memory
of her with happy ones. "O, I am Fortune's fool!" (Act 3 Sc. 1 Ln. 142) He
felt that fate liked to play around with him.
I think Romeo was thinking about why all this death and fighting
was happening around him throughout most of the book. He was contemplating
love and hate basically. Juliet never left his mind. Even when he was
banished that was all that he could think about; being with Juliet again.
When he found out that she had died he killed himself because he didn't
think that he had anything else to live for.
I would describe Romeo as a line. Romeo .....

Moral Law Vs. Civil Law In Antigone
.... brother
of Antigone, fought against Thebes, making him undeserving of a grave
according to Creon. All that Polynices was doing was following his own
morals. He believed in the other side, whatever that may have been, and
he gave his life for it. Creon, being closed minded, lashed out before
taking the time to weight the circumstances, and being so hasty in his
decision suffered an even greater consequence than that of Antigone, in the
end. He refused to listen even after Teiresias warned him by saying, "The
sun won't run its course for many days before you have to repay a corpse
of your own..." Antigone performed God' .....

The Merchant Of Venice: Is It A Classic
.... to today's society. When one
looks deeply into these relationships, they would see parallels to the ones
of today. For instance, the concept that all three marriages will probably
not last, is a parallel to the number of divorces that are occurring today.
More and more divorces are happening and the increase from other years is
shocking! One of the main reasons why this is happening is that more people
are getting married too fast and leaving no time to realize that there are
not meant for each other. This is the same in two - and possibly three - of
the relationships. Gratiano and Nerrissa got married after knowing each
oth .....

Summary Of: Mad About You
.... them. Electrodermal activity, pulse rate, and electromyographic
activity were the measures used.
After the raw data of the first two studies were analyzed and
studied, a third study was conducted. 300 male and female undergraduate
students were given the same scenarios as in study one, but were asked
questions after. One of the questions was, "Have you ever been involved in
a committed sexual relationship before?" The students answered this
question and the data was taken. In the male category, there was a
significant difference. In the female category, there wasn't a significant
difference. The men still felt sexual .....

A Review Of The Movie: The Usual Suspects
.... then asks what
time it is. After a quick check of his gold watch and the light of his
cigarette, the dark one lifts up his gun and fires. Dropping his cigarette
in a line of gas, the boat explodes seconds later as the camera focuses in
on a stack of barrels and ropes.
What this first scene does is provide the viewer with one big
question: what just happened? As the movie progresses the set-up of the
scene slowly plays out in front of us in logical order. But there remains
one major detail left out, who exactly is this dark man, whom we come to
know as Keyser Sozé? This character, easily one of the classics of all
time, remai .....

Irony In Othello
.... who didn't know the truth.
Shakespeare uses situational irony well to make the story more
interesting.
The verbal irony in this novel can sometimes be humorous because
of how ironic it is.
Othello often said things that were actually the opposite of Iago:
"O, thou art wise! 'Tis certain"(IV.I.87), "Honest Iago . . . "(V.II.88),
(II.III.179) & (I.III.319), "I know, Iago, Thy honesty and love doth mince
this matter"(II.III.251-52). These lines are just a few of the ironic
that Othello says to Iago. They show the trust that Othello mistakenly
puts in his "best friend." Most things Iago says are ironic and he's
alw .....

Character Analysis: Athena
.... from certain death at the hands of
Poseidon Earthshaker and brought him to the island of Phaiacia. "Now it
was the turn of Athenaia the daughter of Zeus, and this was her plan. She
tied up the courses of all the other winds, and commanded them to rest and
be quiet; but she sent a steady wind from the north and broke down the
waves in front of Odysseus, that he might make his way and save himself
alive." (Homer 70) At this point in the novel Posiedon is enraged with
Odysseus because he is about to make it home. It seems every time that
Odysseus is about to make it home, Poseidon is reminded that Odysseus
killed his son Pol .....

A Look At The Moss, Father/Son Relationship In Bonnie And Clyde
.... is very apparent through the eye of the
camera. In cinematography, the camera can be used to show a number of
things to the viewer that we wouldn't notice in real life. Closeups of
hands under a sink, or a birds eye view of a gun fight. These are ways of
manipulating the camera to make the viewer feel how the director wishes
them to feel. In the 2 scenes which I am analyzing, Penn, uses these
techniques to show the distribution of power, in the Moss relationship.
The distance of the camera from it's subject plays a crucial role
in presenting the level of power a character has to the audience. The first
shot, in the first scene t .....

Hamlet: Idiot Savant
.... up to his room his uncle
swallowed the food and was fine.
Hamlet's accusations against his uncle made him fear for his life.
Knowing that if he were to wait any longer he had Hamlet sent to England
to be put to death for the murder of an official. Some how managing his
way back from England Hamlet was able to kill his uncle. To him this
fulfilled his fathers requests. But not making it far he himself was
killed.
Being blinded by things that never really happened drove Hamlet
into a lunatic craze. He would not stop until what he felt was completed.
This eventually led to his down fall and his death.

The Crucible: The Puritans
.... In Act One, the girls were deciding whether to tell the truth
about what happened in the woods. Mary Warren said to Abigail, “Abby,
we've got to tell. Witchery's a hangin' error, a hangin' like they done in
Boston two year ago! We must tell the truth, Abby! You'll only be whipped
for dancin' and the other things!”(18) Although this clearly shows that
dancing was a punishable crime in that time, witchcraft was a much more
serious offense.
Puritans had very rigid beliefs about the Bible and God and the
Devil. They believed that witches made compacts with the Devil to do his
evil work on earth. This made witchcraft one of .....
