.... prisoner was rescued by General Lasalle after Lasalle invaded Toledo. The ending was proper for the plot, because he deserved to be rewarded after his immense torture. It is a major coincidence that they invaded Toledo to save the falling prisoner from his death. The plot is suspenseful. It kept you on you're toes at every moment because of the ever danger of death in each paragraph. In the conflict the plot is subtle and complex as well as a struggle between and all-good hero and an all-bad villain.

Lady Macbeth craves for her husband's success so much that she would "dash the brains out" (1.7.58) of her own child in order to achieve her goal. The strong ambition within her makes it seem as if she had no conscience or human feeling. Supernatural incidents are what mainly motivates ....

This idea involves an eastern person, usually of a higher class moving to the west, for whatever reason (Twentieth-Century Literary Criticism 173).
