Free-will And Repentance In Dr
714 Words - 3 Pages

.... of determinism, than that of free will, he still puts Dr. Faustus in a situation where he makes his own rules. The problem that this play confronts is this: If you believe in an all-powerful, all-knowing God, how can you accept the existence of evil in the world, which this God has created? Does this mean that God is responsible for Faustus' damnation? God does not appear in Dr. Faustus. Instead, Marlowe clearly sets out the steps - following the theology of his age by which Faustus' fate is determined by his own actions and words. Henceforth Dr. Faustus' life was filled with comfort and luxury, but marked by excess and perversion. Everything was within his grasp: elega ....


Review Of A Time To Kill
656 Words - 3 Pages

.... Mississippi. The movie begins with the cruel rape and attempted murder of a ten-year old girl. Her attackers are quickly found but, just before they are brought to trial, the girl's father guns them down and is himself put on trial for murder and attempted murder of a one-deputy. A simple story of revenge - except that this is the South, the murdered men are white, and the girl and her father are black. Thus begins a tale that might have been an examination of vigilantism, and might have been a story about the possibility of equal justice under the law for. Carl Lee, the father of the violated girl, has planned revenge knowing that the boys will get off for being white, has ....


A Dolls House - Noras Rebellio
742 Words - 3 Pages

.... she was. He called her a “poor helpless little creature”. A perfect example of Torvalds control and Nora’s submissiveness was when she got him to re-teach her the tarantella. She already knew the dance but she acted as if she needed him to re-teach her the whole thing. When he says to her “Watching you swing and dance the tarantella makes my blood rush”. This shows that he is more interested in her physically than emotionally. Then when she told him to stop he said to her, “am I not your husband?” Again, this is an example of Torvalds control over Nora, and how he thinks that she is there to fulfill his every desire on command. Torvald doesn’t trust her w ....


Character Study Of Claudius Fr
641 Words - 3 Pages

.... that it us benefitted to bear our hearts in grief.” This is not what he really feels, because he desired power over the country and wanted to marry Gertrude (King Hamlet’s wife), so he was glad he poisoned his brother. Later, after he watches the play Prince Hamlet planned (in order to avenge his father) which involved showing the same actions Claudius took when he killed King Hamlet, Cladius then regretted he killed Hamlet’s father, as he realised how evil his actions were. However, he expressed these feelings in solitude in III, iii, ll. 36-72. “O, my offence is rank, it smells to heaven; it hath the primal eldest curse upon’t a brother’ ....


The Bluest Eye
569 Words - 3 Pages

.... blond hair, blue eyes , perfect figure, etc. It’s been said that if you have good looks, you can make it in life with just looks alone. People only strive for becoming beautiful because they want attention. As is the case in Toni Morrison’s story. The characters in her story think that they are ugly , by others opinions of them , and want to become beautiful so they will be recognized and be the center of attention. But the harder both characters try, the worse things get. Pauline strived for beauty because she wanted to attention and wanted to be beautiful. Pauline seemed to have just worse case of bad luck, when she was a child she stepped on a nail and s ....


Hawthornes Reference To Anne H
1003 Words - 4 Pages

.... to America with her husband, and they instantly became prominent members of society. Anne Hutchinson’s place in society is stated in this quote, “Hutchinson persuaded her husband to remove their family to Boston, Massachusetts, in September 1634, where their gentry status and piety assured them a prominent position in the Puritan colony”(“Anne Hutchinson.(religious leader)” 2). On the other hand, Hester did not become a respectable member in society until she was charged with adultery. People’s thoughts of her are shown here, “Such helpfulness was found in her,--so much power to sympathize,--that many people to interpret the Scarl ....


A Dolls House - The Transformation Of Nora Helmer
1567 Words - 6 Pages

.... on having a big holiday bash, while Torvald would rather refrain since there is a rather limited cash flow. "Nora: Oh yes, Torvald, we can squander a little now…piles of money" (1506). Torvald follows up with, "But then it is three full months till the raise comes through" (, 1506). Nora at this point in the play is nothing more than a child, careless in her action and not thinking ahead of possible consequences. Nora sees nothing wrong in spending big on Christmas. Granted this is a righteous cause, since the holidays are about giving to others, but still a parent should know the limit of happiness they should bring. At this point Torvald begins to ....


Power, Authority And Corruptio
1347 Words - 5 Pages

.... Before he desired the power of being king, Macbeth was a respected noble called a "valiant cousin!" and a "worthy gentleman" [Macbeth, I, ii, l: 25, p.13]. He was labeled, "brave Macbeth" [Macbeth, I, ii, l: 18, p.13] for his actions in battle. During a conversation between Duncan and a soldier, the soldier describes how Macbeth brutally slew the rebel Macdonwald: "Disdaining fortune, with his brandished steel, Which smoked with bloody execution, Like valour's minion carved out his passage… Till he unseamed him from the nave to th' chops, And fixed his head upon our battlements" [Macbeth, I, ii, l: 17-23, p.13]. In his speech, the soldier describes Macbeth's violence to ....
