Children And Television
642 Words - 3 Pages

.... a certain "wascally wabbit"? Most people would say "how can a cartoon about a man hunting affect a child?" At first it may seem that it has no effect, but, looking closer, it is easy to see that Bugs Bunny has many human traits. Two of these traits are speaking English and walking upright. Something else that adds to this is that sometimes children cannot make the distinction between fantasy and reality. Quickly a cartoon about a man hunting a rabbit can turn into a story of murder. Another cartoon character that may harm children is Yosimite Sam. When he becomes angry, he begins to fire his pair of guns into the air and at other characters. This could cause children ....


Who Is Most To Blame For Macbeth's Downfall?
490 Words - 2 Pages

.... took it upon himself to make things happen. After killing Duncan he feared Banquo for his knowledge of the witches prophecies and had him killed as well. Macbeth seemed to be losing himself after Duncan's death due to his obsession with the witches prophecies, so in turn, the witches could be partly responsible for Macbeth's downfall. Lady Macbeth can also be held accountable for Macbeth's decline of sanity and power. Although it didn't take much, her persuasion lead to the killing of Duncan. She wanted Macbeth to take the rank of king as much as he did. Pressure from his spouse added on to all the other pressures from the prophecies, also helped tempt Macbeth to mu ....


L’Atalante & Breathless Response Paper
496 Words - 2 Pages

.... are synonymous with “real” mise-en-scene. There were a few things about L’Atalante that I did like. The photography of the underwater scene was nicely done. I thought it was pretty advanced considering when the film was made. The first mate’s tattoos were cute. (Although they were seemingly shoddily drawn on with magic markers.) I appreciated the actors too. The were good at what they were supposed to do. Even though these few things made L’Atalante almost bearable, I didn’t especially like it. Breathless, on the other hand, held my interest. There was a definite plot as well as plenty of action and romance. I also enjoyed it because I had the feelin ....


Merchant Of Venice: Shylock The Antagonist?
972 Words - 4 Pages

.... of their profits from trade and moneylending. It is here that the stereotype of Jews lending money was started. Because of the tariffs placed on them by the crown Jews took to charging high interest rates to secure profits for themselves. Here we see echos of Shylock with his usury. Finally the Jews were ordered out of England in 1254 by Edward I. They did not return to England until the later half of the seventeenth century. (Lippman 3-4) Jews were also viewed as devils by Elizabeathan audiences. Old stories portrayed them as "blood-thirsty murders" that poisoned wells and killed Christian children for their bizarre Passover ritu! als. (Stirling 2:1) These w ....


Hamlet’s Hamartia
735 Words - 3 Pages

.... having to ponder over them for a very long time. Hamartia is a literary term defined as one’s fatal flaw. Every character must have at least one. “ Hamartia, as Aristotle describes it, merely qualifies heroic perfection (Levin, 133).” is excessive thinking. “There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so” (5, ii, 230). His constant hesitation is attributed to rationalization. It is his hesitation, rationalization, excessive thinking, all combined, to almost literally become his fatal flaw. It is his indecisiveness that almost kills him. Although from the very opening of the play, Hamlet recognizes that it is his filial duty to avenge the mu ....


Romeo And Juliet
607 Words - 3 Pages

.... someone he cares for. For example, when he says "In one respect I'll thy assistant be; for this alliance may so happy prove, to turn your households rancour to pure love."(Act 2, Scene 3), he is saying that the only reason he will marry is because he hopes that the marriage will end the hostilities between the two houses. When he says "Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift, and hither shall he come; and he and I shall watch thy waking, and that very night shall Romeo bear thee to Mantua." (Act 4, Scene 1), he tells Juliet how everything will be all right. Unfortunately, for all his good intentions the play still ends in tragedy. Friar Lawrence is a man who is not afra ....


The Crucible: John Proctor Is A Hero
510 Words - 2 Pages

.... know. This is exactly what happens to John. He can not tell anyone and it destroys his marriage. John confesses to lechery with Abigail and he also confesses to being a witch. It was not easy for John to do that. Most people confess and sign away their lives to a lie. John does not see the point in it. He can not live a saint so why live at all? John dies with everyone knowing the truth about him. John says, “You have made your magic now, for now I do think I see some shred of goodness in John Proctor.” John rips up the confession he has just signed when he realizes that what he is doing is just going to make his family's lives worse. John decides ....


Othello: Act 5 Analysis
327 Words - 2 Pages

.... - what you will." (4:1, 42). Iago tells Othello about Cassio sleeping with Desdemona. This appears to be Iago's smartest move because this causes the death of Desdemona and Cassio. This part also appears important to Iago because he is finally made lieutenant. Othello changes dramatically when he hears all these lies from Iago. He is now less patient. He hurries through many decisions to be made. Such as the one to kill his wife. He also jumps to conclusions too quickly. This is shown when Iago and Bianca are talking about Cassio and Othello misinterprets them talking about Desdemona. "Ay, let her rot and perish and be damned tonight, for she shall not live." (4 ....
