1177 Words - 5 Pages.... Tempest reflects Shakespeare's society through the relationship
between characters, especially between Prospero and Caliban. Caliban, who was
the previous king of the island, is taught how to be "civilized" by Prospero and
his daughter Miranda. Then he is forced to be their servant. Caliban explains
"Thou strok'st me and make much of me; wouldst give me Water with berries in ‘t;
and teach me how to name the bigger light, how the less, That burn by day and
night; and then I lov'd thee, And show'd thee all the qualities o' th' isle,...

...(a)ll...” 1 being the first word. The ‘aw' sound is repeated at the
beginning and three times during the next sentence, “And all the men and women
merely players;” (2.7.140). The next sentence is lower in pitch, using a lower ‘
e' sound “..exit and their entrances,” (2.7.141). Reappearing in the final two
sentences, before the actual ages begin, is the ‘aw' sound. The fluctuation

Moliere's "The Imaginary Invalid"
1774 Words - 7 Pages.... illness. Therefore, the primary theme is Argan's
internal struggle of body vs. mind. This theme is developed throughout the play
into smaller themes such as masculinity versus femininity, greed versus love,
and death versus life.
Two of the major changes from the text to the play are Argan's degree of
illness and his death. In the text, there are very few elaborate descriptions of
Dr. Purgon's treatment. However in the play by Panych, there is no shortage of
enemas and other "bathroom" related scenes. I originally thought this change was
for comical purposes, but after some additional thought I questioned whether
Argan was imagining his illness or if he really was ill. In ....

describes this particular scene through Mina’s journal. It begins with
Lucy sleepwalking and Mina eventually tr ....
