.... Oh rose of May, oh flower too soon faded! Her love, her madness, her death, are described with the truest touches of tenderness and pathos. It is a character which nobody but Shakespeare could have drawn in the way that he has done, and to the conception of which there is not even the smallest approach, except in some of the old romantic ballads” (http://www.bga.com/~melissab/ophelia_charshakplay.html). Ophelia is the daughter of Polonius, chief advisor to the Claudius and the sister of Laertes.

.... introduction is crucial to the story and the fact that the lawyer introduces himself greatly increases its effectiveness. The lawyer begins with the words, “I am a rather elderly man.” This first “I” begins a long, autobiographical narrative in which the lawyer reveals much of himself to the reader. Because the story is centered on the lawyer's life, it is imperative that the reader have this close view of him. The repetitive “I” in these paragraphs is important because it comes from the lawyer's thoughts of himself. For this text to flow in it's intended path, the reader must know a great deal about the lawyer and his employees. In fact, it is these ....

.... of page 649, wherein Steedman goes out of her way to describe in detail how her mother lied to her about her past: As a teenage worker my mother had broken with a recently established tradition and on leaving school in 1927 didn't go into the sheds. She lied to me though when, at about the age of eight, I asked her what she'd done, and she said she'd worked in an office, done clerical work. Steedman then goes on to say how she had sought out and verified that this lie was true: . . .I talked to my grandmother and she, puzzled, told me that Edna had never worked in any office, had in fact been apprenticed to a dry-cleaning firm that did tailoring and mending. Steedman ....

.... in which they live are not similar in any aspect. Through their many similarities and differences, MacBeth and Kurtz prove to be characters filled with evilness, and upon a closer examination, the differing degrees of that evilness are seen. Both MacBeth and Kurtz’s initial actions are dominated by ambition. MacBeth chooses to overthrow King Duncan for the sole purpose of his own political gain. He even admits that he "[has] no spur/ To prick the sides of [his] intent, but only/ Vaulting ambition, which o’erleaps itself/ And falls on th’other" (Act I, sc. 7). Despite many other good reasons for overthrowing a king, such as for the good of the state or if the kin ....

While leaving the house the voice of his grandfather stayed in his mind. He remembered his grandfather saying: “Everything in here is yours.” (Kiwon 494) Sogun knew what he did was wrong and what he did wrong led to Sokpae’s deat ....

.... This essay parallels Swineburne's, but states that an omniscient, omnipotent, omnimalevolent Demon created the world. By looking at how weak the argument for cacodaemony is, one can see how unlikely it is that the Demon exists and then can see that the existence of God is just as unlikely. In "The Problem of Evil", Swinburne says that an omniscient, omnipotent, omnibenevolent Being created the world. If this were true, how can evil exist in this world? If God consciously knew He was creating a world in which there is evil, then He would not be omnibenevolent. If God did not know He was creating a world in which evil exists, then He would not be omniscient. If God is ....
