.... preoccupation with a means-oriented focus on micromobilization -- to see the recruitment of the individual as occurring on contested terrain, where are fought battles over entrenchment versus change (Garner 1996; Alexander 1996). The pupose of expansion is to invigorate the frequently reified conceptualizations of social movements by recognizing the contribution of organized collective action to definitions of social problems and cultural knowledge in general (Eyerman and Jamison 1991; Sztompka 1993). As Benford (1997) explains, doing this entails focusing upon the framing process and providing an in-depth analysis of negotiation, conflict, and compromise in the develo ....

.... makes up one of the leaning sides, and marriage the lower side. The three together are very strong, but to stand they all must be united. The longer a marriage is held the longer the bottom stretches, and the more dependent each person becomes on the other. If one side tries to stand on its own then the second will fall on the first as it tries to stand.

Fleance says, "The moon is down" (Line 2), and Banquo says, "Their (Heaven's) candles are all out (there are no stars in the sky)."

Weakness Of Women In Hamlet
1102 Words - 5 Pages

.... qualities. Shakespeare effectively demonstrates how dependent women are on men by showing that, without men, women cannot function as emotionally stable or sound individuals.

Gertrude’s marriage to Claudius was a deplorable and sordid disappointment to Hamlet who was appalled by the speed with which his mother recovered from her widowhood. “Within a month, ere yet the salt of most unrighteous tears had left the flushing in her gallèd eyes, she married. O, most wicked speed, to post with such dexterity to incestuous sheets!” (Act1.scene2.158-162). The absence ....

But rather than swoop instantly to that revenge, Hamlet pretends to be insane in order to mask an investigation of the accusation brought by his father's ghost.
