MacBeth - Attitude Changes
1275 Words - 5 Pages

.... crosses his mind immediately after he finds that he has just been named Thane of Cawdor, he cannot believe he "yield[s] to that suggestion / Whose horrid image doth unfix my hair / And make my seated heart knock at my ribs" (I, iii, 133-35). In scene 5 of act 1, however, his "vaulting ambition" is starting to take over, but partly because of his wife's persuasion. He agrees that they must "catch the nearest way" (17), and kill Duncan that night. On the other hand, as the time for murder comes nearer, he begins giving himself reasons not to murder Duncan: First, as I am his kinsman and his subject, Strong both against the deed; then, as his host, Who should against his ....


The Symbol Of Black In "The Crucible"
423 Words - 2 Pages

.... wants something bad enough she will get it. Although blue signifies sadness I believe that Elizabeth is feeling black in this portion of the play. What I mean by black is that Elizabeth probably felt like dying instead of going through all this. Since black symbolizes death I figured that Elizabeth maybe felt black, like putting herself out of the misery of all this charging rather than go along with it. She gets blamed for many things that she did not do. For example she is accused of poking Abby with a needle by a poppet. Mary must also feel black because she meant no harm by putting a needle inside of the poppet and yet she gets in trouble also. The ....


Oedipus Rex
445 Words - 2 Pages

.... from Oedipus, Teiresias says, “I charge you, then, abide by the proclamation you have made: from this day forth never speak again to these men or me; You yourself are the pollution of this country” (ln.334-338). His bold and surprising prophecy does nothing but infuriates an already angry king. Oedipus refuses to believe in such profound accusations, but ironically he is in actuality the true suspect. The reader understands this truth and cannot help but feel disturbed and worried about the fate of Oedipus. The news from the messenger of Corinth seems to bring with it good fortune for Oedipus as well as closure for the reader. All along the king’s fear was that “ ....

.... result in his downfall. The very first words that he speaks in the play are :- "...Give me the map there. Know that we have divided In three our kingdom, and 'tis our fast intent To shake all cares and business from our age, Conferring them on younger strengths while we Unburdened crawl to death..." (Act I, Sc i, Ln 38-41) This gives the reader the first indication of Lear's intent to abdicate his throne. He goes on further to offer pieces of his kingdom to his daughters as a form of reward to his test of love. "Great rivals in our youngest daughter's love, Long in our court have made their amorous sojourn, And here are to be answered. Tell me, my daughters (Since no ....


National Geographic: Mysteries Underground

.... the littlest dirt from any clothing would contaminate the pureness of the water. All the cave explorers are very cautious as to what they touch or where they step because some of the crystal formations are so fragile that the slightest vibration from a voice or a footstep could ruin millions of years of forming. In some parts of caves there are giant and very smooth ice formations that must be slid down very carefully because if they are not taken cautiously you will pick up to much speed while sliding and finally hit some kind of stone wall or something. One lady was not careful enough and boy did she pay. She was only a mile and a half or so in the cave and she b ....

.... of gathering news, therefore making the journalist succumb to the corporate needs of the newspaper. The three major newspapers of Toronto (Toronto Sun, Toronto Star and The Globe & Mail) discord in their journalistic techniques for the purpose of selling their produc t. "News is more often made rather than gathered. And it is made on the basis of what the journalist thinks is important or what the journalist thinks the audience thinks is important" (Postman, 14). The Toronto Sun focuses on the audience that yearns for entertainment and adjuts its word selection and choice of articles to accommodate this need for entertainment. The glitz and glamour of today's cel ....


The Apostle

.... him for accepting punishment with him and the other guilty party. This seems to be a perfect example of a conversion by the grace of God. It is sudden, unexpected, and comes from someone who is not necessarily a model citizen. The central figure of the film is a southern evangelical preacher, the self proclaimed "Apostle". In the beginning, this man is the picture of a stereotypical "Bible-belt" minister. He is loud, flamboyant, hypocritical, and uses his influence to become a pillar of the community. However, slowly loses everything he holds dear. He loses his wife to another man and loses his job at "his church". He then commits a heinous act which puts his wife's lov ....

.... and aristocratic. He is introduced as very noble and dear to his wife, Desdemona. In act one scene three, he identifies himself with the "great ones" of the world.
