.... to her left and her hips and legs face the viewer. Her right leg is bent slightly so her calf is beneath her straightened left leg. The woman is not as thin as classical nudes, her hips are somewhat broad and her thighs are slightly heavy. Her arms are crossed languidly over her head. Because her arms are crossed over her head, her face is almost completely in the shadows; this shadowing covers the detail of her face in such a way that she could be almost anyone. She gazes wistfully at the ground to her left. The woman is rendered very softly and is in a very sensuous pose. This picture would have been found scandalous for its sexual overtones as was Courbet's La De ....

.... Before murdering Duncan Macbeth could not have ever considered doing some of the things that he will do later in the play. The killing of Duncan causes a great transformation in Macbeth. Before the murder of Duncan Macbeth was very innocent and good hearted. After the murder Macbeth becomes almost evil in his quest for power and the control of his fate. This transformation is most evident in two passages spoken by Macbeth. The first passage is in Act I and the second is in Act III. In the first passage Macbeth says: This supernatural soliciting Cannot be ill, cannot be good. If ill, Why hath it given me earnest of success, Commencing in a truth? I am Thane of Cawdor: ....

.... half way though the show. I remember I was so incredibly angry over not being able to completely watch the episode, that I threw a childish tantrum by crying and yelling at my poor mother. I later began buying The Transformers action figures; which were developed by Hasbro from the television series. Over the years, I accumulated a collection of about thirty different characters; which I still have stored in my room. I don't think I could ever get rid of them. Also, each Transformer came with a stat card on the back of the box he was sold in that described his various skills and attributes. I used to always cut these stat cards from the back of the boxes, and tape them ....

.... believed that life was nothing because he himself could not control it. He was a man who wanted power and not having the power to control the aspect of life made him frustrated with the whole concept. In laymen's term, he gave up. Macbeth did not want to deal with life and focused on it as just a "walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more" (V.v.25-27. As he saw it, life was like a big production where everyone has a time limit on what they have to do. This particular philosophy is brought on by the various things Macbeth has went through in his life. The loss of lady Macbeth must have had an enormous impact on h ....

.... gift of music, but not him. Salieri's music fits all the requirement, it is good and enjoyable to listen to but not the way that Mozart did his. Salieri's music is talented but not a work of genius. Mozart was very success in the court with his excellent music. Salieri's jealous of Mozart became obsessed with conspiring against Mozart and eventually kills him. Mozart cannot finish his last piece of music, "The Requiem", it was never completed. Because Mozart had died like a pauper, his grave had been left unmarked, his body unidentified. In the end of the movie, Salieri realize he was not defeated God, for Mozart's music endures while Salieri's fades into obscurity. ....

.... of a line which sums up a certain point that Robertson has passed off as horrid. Empson points out that "it establishes from the start the theme of fog" and I am within full agreement with Empson when he remarks that comment of the line. Certain lines to MacBeth, which Empson described as essential, were disregarded by Robertson as having "no sense". This paragraph shows an example of what Robertson disregarded: "But cruel are the times, when we are traitors And do not know ourselves, when we hold rumour From what we fear, yet know not what we fear, Each way and move." Robertson, after contemplating this passage, remarked that this is "certainly not ....

.... shares the tragic news with Ismene. From her first response, "No, I have heard nothing"(344). Ismene reveals her passivity and helplessness in the light of Creon's decree. Thus, from the start, Ismene is characterized as traditionally "feminine", a helpless woman that pays no mind to political affairs. Doubting the wisdom of her sisters plan to break the law and bury Polyneices, Ismene argues: We who are women should not contend with men; we who are weak are ruled by the stronger, so that we must obey....(346) Once again Ismene's words clearly state her weak, feminine character and helplessness within her own dimensions. Antigone, not happy with he ....

.... Cawdor for his service. It was during this scene, where Duncan announced Malcom as his future successor, that Macbeth's thoughts became evil obsessions. A power was taking over him, his own flaw from evil, brought about by the weird sisters. "Stars, hide your fires, Let not the light see my black and deep desires." (Act 1 Scene 4). Macbeth's flaw is highly influenced by his wife, Lady Macbeth, who has wicked thoughts, and persuades Macbeth into many actions he would not normally do. "Only look up clear: To alter favour ever is to fear. Leave all the rest to me" (Act 1 Scene 5) shows her strength over Macbeth. As Macbeth prepares to kill Duncan, he hallucinates, and man ....
