Television And It's Effects On Children
696 Words - 3 Pages.... give the wrong impression of what really happens in everyday life. It also
influences their development and their behaviours. "In fact childhood
development experts say infants as young as 14 months old imitate behaviour they
see on t.v and children up to the age of 5 lack the cognitive ability to
distinguish fact from fantasy"(Internet; Children and television violence)
Therefore what they see on t.v is what they are most likely to imitate.
Cartoons are even showing numerous acts of violence and most of this violence is

Dorine, Her Voice Of Reason And How She Is Able To Save The Family From Their Demise
1217 Words - 5 Pages.... from such a manipulative man.
It is in the first scene of the play that we see Dorine's character traits developing. The quote from Madame Parnelle in scene one states "Girl, you talk too much, and I'm afraid you're far too saucy for a lady's maid. You push in everywhere"(21). From the start it is apparent that Dorine is an outspoken character, and by doing this she is clearly putting herself out on a limb because she is dissimilar to the other women of her time. I believe that it is here that Moliere foreshadows the importance of Dorine's a character. Later on in the play she will play a crucial role in saving Mariane, her counterpart, from marrying Tartuffe, and ult ....

456 Words - 2 Pages.... from travellers, he stole an entire
empire from Richard II, whom he also had murdered. In their ways of dealing
with people, especially under uncomfortable circumstances, the two also
behave in like ways. It is well known that Falstaff often works his way out
of unpleasant situations using only his wit. The King is continuously
modifying his behavior to suit the occasion, such as when he is dealing
with Hotspur and the opposing Vassals and when he deals with Hal at the
royal court. Both Falstaff and the King live,to a great extent, by the
sharpness of their minds: Falstaff as a criminal, and the King as a
politician. Another similar facet of these two characters is their view ....

“A Doll’s House”: The Theme Of Individual Vs. Society
603 Words - 3 Pages.... These and other sweets are forbidden by
Torvald. Nora does rebel against this small rule: “See here, macaroons! I
thought they were contraband here” (979). Nora is eager to make decisions
on her own, without other people trying to help her. Society dictated at
the time that she listen to her husband and obey. Borrowing money from
Krogstad was not only a disobedience to society, but a personal freedom. A
personal freedom that she had craved for all of her life.
Torvald just about is what society expects of him. Torvald runs
his household with an iron fist. He is this way most likely because he is
afraid of what might happen if he did not do what the world ....

Othello: Roles Of Cassio, Roderigo, And Brabantio, And Their Functions
875 Words - 4 Pages.... in the play where Othello believes he is having an affair with
Desdemona. Cassio's role in the play is not one of the extremely
important ones. His main function is to be a figure who's actions are
partially responsible for Othello believing that his wife is cheating on
him. For example, Cassio asking for Desdemona's help leads to the two of
them being seen together, which is in act three scene three line 35. In
the end of the play, Cassio becomes the governor in Cyprus after the
former Governor, Othello, commits suicide, in act five scene two from
line 366-378, which shows another of his functions, to act as one of the
means which ties up the loose ends ....

murder weapons back with him instead of leaving them by the guards. Second,
when they asked him why he killed the guards, he rambled on about his anger
and his rage. Lady Macbeth had to fake faint to distract their dinner
guests from what Macbeth was saying. One thing that went Macbeth's way was
that Malcolm and Donalbain fled because they thought that whoever killed
their father would come back to kill them next.
Now that Macbeth was king he felt more and more paranoid about what
he had done. Macbeth hired murderers to kill Banquo and his son. The
murderers killed Banquo, but his son escaped. This meant that the
prophecy that Banquo's son would become king co ....

624 Words - 3 Pages.... argue against others who believe that Creon deserves that honor.
They say that the Gods were against Creon, and that he did not truly love his
country. "His patriotism is to narrow and negative and his conception of justice
is too exclusive... to be dignified by the name of love for the state" (Hathorn
59). These arguments, and many others, make many people believe the Antigone is
the rightful protagonist.
Many critics argue that Creon is the tragic hero of Antigone. They say
that his noble quality is his caring for Antigone and Ismene when thier father
was persecuted. Those who stand behind Creon also argue that Antigone never had
a true epiphany, a key element in bei ....
