Ambiguity And Equivocation In Macbeth
1192 Words - 5 Pages

.... actions which result in the death of the king, Macbeth's friends, and eventually his own death. From the beginning of the play, Macbeth desires great power. Lady Macbeth's statement to Macbeth that "When you durst do it, then you were a man;" (I.vii.55) suggests that she and Macbeth have contemplated and possibly committed murder for the sake of advancement before. Macbeth provides further support for this in his reaction to the witches' prophecy that he will be king. After Macbeth is made Thane of Cawdor, he realizes that the witches were right, and immediately begins to ponder the other part of their prophecy. "My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical," (I.iii.153) ....

.... thunder, lightening, or in rain ”(I,i,2). This signifies a gloomy dismal atmosphere on a barren stretch of land where the witches will conduct their sorcery and witchcraft.

948 Words - 4 Pages

.... them and make them turn on each other. The other technique that he used which didn't nearly play a role as large as the first technique but was important was he was always very careful, in being discovered and by covering his tracks. He knew how to take care of things in precarious situation. There was in my own personal opinion one more technique, and that was that he knew how to use all his options and could use his wits and cunningness. Iago's number one technique was his ability to make people trust him. He had just about everyone spun in Iago's web. Rodrigo, Othello, Cassio, Desdemona, Emilia, and etc. And he got every one of them to trust him, although he still ....

.... to teach kids the difference. According to Rathus in Psychology in the New Millennium, observational learning may account for most human learning (239).

There are filmed and videotaped versions of great works of literature such as Orson Welles' Macbeth. Nearly every school shows films of laboratory experiments. But what of our viewing outside of the classroom? Tel ....


Hamlet: Holding Back Revenge

.... of the play and continue to torment Hamlet up until the end of the play” (Heilman p.45). Hamlet is not shore if this is really his farther or a devil in disguise. Hamlet Swears revenge will be quick for his father’s murderer. For the two months since Hamlet has seen the ghost, Hamlet has been unable to commit his vowed revenge; unable to explain to himself either his long delay or his depression and insanity. Maybe he’s scared of taking revenge on Claudius, he may think by taking revenge he endangers his own soul. “No matter how right a man might think his motives are, if Claudius is innocent; the act of revenge would inevitably make Hamlet as evil as the a ....

.... of Khe Sahn were sent home for all of America to see (Klein 50-51). Again, war is not pretty and the way you keep morale up is you don't let the public know how bad war really is. Television is one of the most powerful tools of media and “by the mid 1960's television had become the most important source for news for most of the American public, and beyond that, perhaps, the most powerful single influence on the public.” (Hallin 106) So people trusted what reporters like Walter Cronkite were telling them. They believed it when NBC journalists told them things like, “ the Marines are so bogged down in Hue that nobody will predict when the battle would end…more tha ....


MAD Magazine: Its Success
332 Words - 2 Pages

.... Mad's survival over the years possible is it's foundations. Its creation was during the sixties, when counter culture was at its peak, a time when rebelling against "the system" and not "selling out" were the ideals of popular culture. The fact that the magazine held within its covers no advertisements catered to the ideal of not selling out, which drew a faithful audience. The second factor is tradition. As is true with most MAD readers of my generation, My first encounter with the magazine was when I was a kid, going through some old things of my father's in the attic. I came across an old issue of MAD and became interested in it although I only understood a few of the ....
