King Lear -
419 Words - 2 Pages

.... his arrest. Edgar in disguise fights Edmund, who is defending his honour and is mortally wounded - "the wheel has come full circle". Gloucester, realising the wrong he has done to Edgar, yet joyful he is alive, dies. Edgar joins Albany in ruling the country. So skillfully has Shakespeare intertwined the two plots, beginning in Act II at Gloucester's castle and ending in the alliance of Edgar and Albany, that is is difficult to separate them. Gloucester, like Lear, suffers from filial ingratitude. It is in his castle that Lear is humiliated by his daughters and flees into the storm. Gloucester's sympathy helps Lear to Dover to meet Cordelia, yet leads to his own blindnes ....

Even as he is adhering to the principles of his Catholic school upbringing, he becomes increasingly disillusioned. Even though Joyce spoke warmly of his own experiences at Clongowes he portrays a different, almost opposite experience ....


The Tempest - Barbarism Versus
875 Words - 4 Pages

.... as the representation of the wild; the side that is usually looked down upon. Although from his repulsive behavior, Caliban can be viewed as a detestable beast of nature, it can be reasonably inferred that Shakespeare’s intent was to make Caliban a sympathetic character. During the first encounter, Caliban comes across very bestial and immoral. While approaching Caliban’s cave, Prospero derogatorily says, "…[he] never/Yields us kind answer," meaning Caliban never answers respectfully. When Prospero reaches the cave, he calls to Caliban. Caliban abruptly responds, "There’s wood enough within." His short, snappy reply and his odious tone, reveal the bitterness he ....

.... labor there are complications and she must deliver by having cesarean section. Other problems arise, she begins hemorrhaging, and dies. The baby also dies from the birth. Although this novel is not perfect, he uses very elaborate writing, and also shows how important it is to have good morals. “I loved to take her hair down and she sat on the bed and kept very still, except suddenly she would dip down to kiss me while I was doing it...inside a tent or behind a falls.” This novel is very graphic when it comes to them having sex or while he is at the whorehouses during his leave time. Many things in this novel are inappropriate for children and adults. In ....


Franklins Preface To Poor Rich
458 Words - 2 Pages

.... thy Time well if though meanest to gain Leisure", lets the reader know that time shouldn’t be wasted on doing things that won’t better yourself or others. Franklin tells us that in order to be frugal, we can’t waste anything. People who spend lavishly should listen to the maxim, "Silks and Satins, Scarlet and Velvets put out the Kitchen Fire". This saying reminds us that the nice, expensive things all work just as well as the generic ones. Another proverb that a person with no frugality should abide by is, "Women and Wine, Game and Deceit, Make the Wealth small, and the Wants great." This is one I can definitely relate to. Women, wine, and playing ....


Witches, Werewolves, And Vampires
360 Words - 2 Pages

.... besides the exception of moral witches, such as Glenda in the Wizard of Oz. Werewolves are people who can alter their body. They are killers who paralyze and then eat people for survival. It has been said that there was once a beast who ate all of the little children in France. Many stories began of werewolves by making little children believe that evil was something that could be prevented by your own actions. From such a vivid and evil picture that people have created of such creatures, people have come to fear and believe other fictional stories about werewolves. Vampires are living people who have powers to change into a non-corporal spirit. They sleep in the day an ....

.... or mythical yet is represented by the character Iago. Iago is cunning, untrustworthy, selfish, and plotting. He uses these traits to his advantage by slowly planning his own triumph while watching the demise of others. It is this that is Iago's motivation. The ultimate defeat of good by the wrath of evil. Not only is it in his own nature of evil that he suceeds but also in the weaknesses of the other characters.

A Farewell To Arms
298 Words - 2 Pages

.... case WWI, where the characters in SAR seemed to have no direction. Frederick's actions are determined by his position until he deserts the army. Floating down the river with barely a hold on a piece of wood his life, he abandons everything except Catherine and lets the river take him to a new life that becomes increasing difficult to understand. The escape to Switzerland seemed too perfect for a book that set a tone of ugliness in the world that was only dotted with pure love like Henry's and Cat's and I knew the story couldn't end with bliss in the slopes of Montreux. In a world where the abstracts of glory, honor, and sacrifice meant little to F ....
