.... all the women are housewives but some worked harder than others did. For example, Mrs. Proctor a common house wife says “ Pray God. It hurt my heart to skin her, poor rabbit.” She gone out in the woods all by herself to catch dinner. The man of the house expects dinner on the table when they get home. This is an example of a common communistic society. Through out the whole play, women are being accused of witchcraft. A man could have never been accused of witchcraft in those days. Men were the dominant gender. Tituba is a black servant who was spotted in the woods supposedly practicing witchcraft. She is blamed for the crime, probably because she is a servant of ....

.... than the person under the skin. There are many references in the play to indicate that Othello was dark colored. The first image we, as a reader, are given of Othello is that of a black ram having sexual relations with Desdemona. Iago’s line reads “Even now, now, very now, an old black ram is tupping your white ewe” (1.1.88-90). Later on in the play, there are many other references to Othello's color and race. Desdemona's father, Brabantio, is appalled to learn that his daughter is having a relationship with a “sooty bosom” (2.3.27). Emilia refers to Othello as a black devil (5.2.132). This scene does not suggest that Emilia is racist in any way. She most likely wa ....

.... and uncivilized label given to the Indians and savages by the European explorers by creating the ³noble savage². The ³noble savage² according to Montaigne was of better character and persona than the so called civilized explorers because of its natural and uncorrupt state. In The Tempest Shakespeare responds to Montaignes essay through the primeval character of Caliban. Caliban and his overwhelming animal instincts are Shakespeares response. From the beginning of the play Caliban is molded as a monster. The son of the evil witch Sycorax, Caliban is Prosporos¹ servant. It is not that Caliban is a monster as much as Caliban is simply animalistic. Once Caliban trie ....

.... her. When the Nurse started pushing Juliet towards marring Paris and cutting down Romeo, she could no longer put trust in her and wanted nothing to do with her. Throughout her role in the play Juliet showed allot of courage. For instance, Juliet decides to marry Romeo even though their families are enemies. She knows that her parents would never permit the marriage but lets the love lead her way. When Juliet says to Friar Lawrence “Go get thee hence, for I wilt not away....”(V.iii.160) Juliet is telling Friar that you can leave Romeo since he is dead but I will not because I love him.

.... none of them could desire Kate. "Mates, maid? How mean you that? No mates for you unless you were of a gentler, milder, mold" (I,i, lines 58 - 60). From this it is clear that the men in the play prefer a better "mold" than Kate, in other words, she does not carry herself as well as Bianca. Kate does not play the coy flirting games, and is therefore thought of as harsher than Bianca. Bianca, however, knows how to be flirtatious, witty, and coy around her admirers, and yet is almost intentionally mean to Kate. For instance, Bianca knows that it hurts Kate to have no suitors while she (Bianca) has several. Bianca uses this to hurt Kate. When Kate tries to find out wh ....

.... The play also depicts the troubled parts in his life and eventually his death that is instantaneous caused by the suffering and calamity. There is the feeling of fear in the play as well, that makes men see how blind they are not knowing when fortune or something else would be on them. The hero must be of a high status on the chain and the hero also possesses a tragic flaw that initiates the tragedy. The fall of the hero is not felt by him alone but creates a chain reaction which affects everything below him. There must also be the element of chance or accident that influences some point in the play. King Lear meets all of these requirements that has been laid ....

.... I thought that was kind of rude of her. Blanche is too worried about her appearance as illustrated in the quote. Stella tells Blanche that she only has two rooms and Blanche is shocked. When Stanley comes back from bowling he is surprised to see Blanche there. Blanche was looking for a compliment, but Stanley is not the complimenting type. Stella has to tell Stanley secretly to once in while give Blanche a nice compliment. Blanche used to have a nice house with big white columns in Belle Reve. Stella left Belle Reve to come to New Orleans. Blanche now comes to New Orleans saying that Belle Reve is lost but doesn’t explain how. Stanley thinks that Blanche is lying ....

.... ghost is truthful. On the other end of the revenge spectrum is Laertes. As soon as Laertes hears of his father Polonius's murder, the rampageous son rushes back to Denmark and, with a crowd of followers, burst into the castle prepared to kill his father's murderer. Laertes, in great contrast to Hamlet, takes immediate action. Finally, Fortinbras represents the middle path of revenge. He does not miss the knock of opportunity because of over analysis, nor does he act too swiftly to realize whom he should attack. In the end of the play, Fortinbras arrives just as everyone is dying and does not have to exert a great deal of strength to accomplish his task because the others ....
